the series finale of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will air Thursday, May 21.

Such a shame, but I look forward to whatever Colbert does next.

I mostly hope he stays active and doesn't take an extended hiatus or move away from political content.

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 17 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

In recent interviews he's said he knows what he wants to do next, but doesn't want to say. I expect he'll take a little while off and shift more into acting, possibly stage acting, but that's just a guess.

I think he'll avoid politics for a little while, at least until Trump is gone.

Colbert 2028, perhaps?

Colbert Report return please.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 23 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

How would that even look under the current climate? I honestly can't imagine. I don't think he'd be comfortable being as cruel and vitriolic as you have to be to play the role these days.

Yeah the punch line “so we murdered them” isn’t going to work.

Nothing the Nazis are doing right now is funny.

Colbert as UberGruppenFuhrer.

I honestly can’t imagine

he brought the character back for a skit just recently

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 3 weeks ago

And it was great.

Man, I want him to just start a YouTube channel. Give that s*** away.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And publish to peertube to support the fediverse

whatever Colbert does next.

Jon Stewart's running mate?

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

That would be the biggest landslide election in history.
