""I created and launched Comics Unleashed 20 years ago so my fellow comedians could have a platform to do what we all love - make people laugh. I truly appreciate CBS' confidence in me by picking up our two-hour comedy block of Comics Unleashed and Funny You Should Ask, because the world can never have enough laughter.""
""Last July, CBS announced that it was canceling the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, citing financial reasons. At the time, the network also revealed it was shuttering the franchise entirely, rather than replacing Colbert as the host.""
CBS will move Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen to the 11:35 p.m. time slot starting May 22, 2026, following the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The show will air back-to-back 30-minute episodes each night on CBS and Paramount+. The comedy game show Funny You Should Ask, hosted by Jon Kelley, will follow at 12:37 a.m. Byron Allen expressed gratitude for CBS's support in creating a two-hour comedy block, emphasizing the importance of laughter.
