The decision is described as a financial one amid challenges in the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >late-night television landscape<\/a>, not related to the show&#8217;s performance or content. Stephen Colbert, who took over from David Letterman in 2015, shared the news with his studio audience, expressing gratitude to CBS adn his viewers. Meanwhile, Fox News&#8217;s *Gutfeld!*, hosted by Greg Gutfeld, dominated late-night ratings in the second quarter, averaging around three million viewers overall and leading key demographics. Colbert&#8217;s show averaged nearly 1.9 million viewers, followed by ABC&#8217;s *Jimmy Kimmel Live!* and NBC&#8217;s *Tonight Show*.CBS praised Colbert and his team, calling the decision difficult due to their admiration and respect for their work.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">&lsquo;Gutfeld!&rsquo; dominates ratings as CBS retires &lsquo;The Late Show with Stephen Colbert&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2176362\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/cbs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">CBS<\/a> prepares to retire its <em>The Late Show<\/em> franchise, Fox News&rsquo;s <span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">late-night television show&nbsp;<em>Gutfeld!&nbsp;<\/em>recorded dominating second-quarter<\/span> ratings.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, CBS, whose parent company is Paramount Global, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/entertainment\/3475213\/cbs-cancels-late-show-stephen-colbert-financial-decision\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"announced\">announced<\/a> that <em>The Late Show with <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/stephen-colbert\/\"><em>Stephen Colbert<\/em><\/a>  will end in May 2026, citing a &ldquo;challenging backdrop in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/late-night-tv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/these-people-were-vicious-i-saw-all-kinds-of-illegal-behavior-michigan-election-witness-who-saw-4-am-illegal-ballot-drop-for-biden-speaks-out-video\/\" title=\"&quot;These People Were Vicious - I Saw All Kinds of Illegal Behavior&quot; - Michigan Election Witness Who Saw 4 AM Illegal Ballot Drop for Biden Speaks Out (VIDEO)\">late night<\/a>&rdquo; television<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/entertainment\/3475213\/cbs-cancels-late-show-stephen-colbert-financial-decision\/\">CBS to end The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, citing &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-dems-pass-massive-voting-rights-bill-conservatives-claim-it-will-chill-speech-demolish-election-integrity\/\" title=\"House Dems Pass Massive\u00a0\u2018Voting Rights\u2019 Bill; Conservatives Claim It Will Chill Speech, Demolish\u00a0Election Integrity\">financial decision<\/a>&#8216;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3473832\/dana-white-previews-historic-ufc-fight-on-white-house-lawn-ill-blow-the-doors-off-this-thing\/\">Dana White previews historic UFC fight on White House lawn: &lsquo;I&rsquo;ll blow the doors off this thing&rsquo;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/entertainment\/3473493\/zitos-book-on-trump-assassination-attempt-will-be-a-movie\/\">Zito&rsquo;s book on Trump assassination attempt will be a movie<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire <em>The Late Show<\/em> franchise at that time.
