CBS's attorneys told the broadcaster to pull the interview after Trump's FCC argued that late-night-show interviews of political candidates from one party but not the other violate federal regulations. The network allegedly advised the host that he shouldn't even discuss on-air that it had put the kibosh on the interview. Colbert wasn't amused. Not only did he proceed to talk about it on the air; he interviewed Talarico and posted it on YouTube, where, within two days, the clip had garnered some 7.8 million views.

It was a blue wave across America on Election Day. The Late Show, Late Night, The Daily Show, and The Tonight Show celebrated democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani's triumph over the Trump-endorsed Andrew Cuomo in the New York City mayoral race in addition to Virginia governor-elect Abigail Spanberger and New Jersey governor-elect Mikie Sherrill. On the back of President Donald Trump declaring war on late night, Jordan Klepper, Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, and even Jimmy Fallon took the opportunity to call Trump a loser, celebrate Mamdani's new policies, and, for the first time in a while, feel "good."

KPop Demon Hunters have hit the late-night TV circuit. The Netflix sensations made their live television debut with a performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on October 7th. The singing voices of KPop Demon Hunters EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami, together known as HUNTR/X, appeared on Fallon to perform their hit single, "Golden," as well as discuss the song's immense success.

Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon opened their late-night shows Thursday using a mix of humor and solidarity with suspended ABC host Jimmy Kimmel. Stewart opted for satire to critique ABC suspending "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" indefinitely following comments he made about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Colbert took a more serious approach, calling his suspension "blatant censorship." Fallon praised Kimmel and vowed to keep doing his show as usual. Then an announcer spoke over him and replaced most of his critiques about President Donald Trump with flattery.

Greg Gutfeld's show averages 3.1 million viewers and outperforms Stephen Colbert's Late Show, which has seen a bump to 2.4 million after cancellation news.

MJ Lenderman, who previously announced he would stop actively touring with the band, performed alongside Karly Hartzman and the rest of Wednesday for their late-night debut.

Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel both used excellent footage of a cardinal sealing the doors to the Sistine Chapel, implying that a big dance party was taking place once the doors were shut.
