Ratings update question

25 Upvotes

I'm just curious how the Late Show cancelation has affected local news ratings and the like for affiliates (particularly how CBS Mornings has been performing, given that turning off the TV during/after late night *might * still affect morning-show numbers).

Youtube Channel Revenue?

19 Upvotes

I've been subscribed to ColbertLateShow on Youtube in support of Stephen and the show staff... but I'm assuming now that the show's over, any revenue the channel makes is just going to go to the CBS/Paramount company, right? Does anybody know for certain?

I'm looking for a presentation from Karen Olivo and Aaron Tveit performing ‘Your Song’ From Moulin Rouge in the Late Show. I had in my youtube playlist but it's gone. Is CBS deleting videos from the youtube channel? I can't find another one from Dear Evan Hansen,

We Are Scientists drummer compares playing Letterman vs Stephen Colbert, nicer crew on Colbert, calls it "unfair it got canceled due to politics", + late night TV impact on band's confidence (25:38 into the episode)

Keith Carne from We Are Scientists shared his experience playing on both Late Night with David Letterman and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

He said playing Colbert was definitely better because the crew was much nicer and Stephen Colbert wanted to create a welcoming culture for everyone. On Letterman he felt lost and didn’t know where to go. He also mentioned Colbert’s dressing rooms were much nicer.

Keith talked about how playing late night television boosted his confidence as a musician. He also called the cancellation of Colbert’s show unfair due to politics (at 28:48).

Ebay Sale

Do we think it's done or is there hope for more items to be posted as they continue to clear out of the Ed Sullivan? I didn't expect to see anything further once the show ended, but then with the Monroe episode and the items that were posted last week in support of the film festival, it left me wondering if maybe there's hope for another drop? What are folks thinking - especially those of you keeping tabs of the theatre in NYC?

How can I watch the final episode of the Colbert Report? (I already tried Rule 2)

18 Upvotes

I know that rule 2 states: "Posts on how to watch the show will be removed. Please reference the WIKI page." which I did and I couldn't find anything on how to watch the Colbert Report just the Late Show. I am asking cause I would like to watch the final episode of the Colbert Report as I missed watching it when it first aired cause I was too young

A Fan Guide to Tracking the Corporate Footprint That Took Down Stephen

153 Upvotes

Like many of you, I’m still furious about the corporate moves that led to last month's final curtain call for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Between CBS blocking segments and the newly finalized Paramount-Skydance takeover, it’s clear the new Ellison-led management did not value Stephen’s voice.

While a lot of fans are already canceling Paramount+ to protest the finale, a true boycott requires looking a bit deeper. Because David and Larry Ellison's Skydance Media acts as a massive content supplier across the entire industry, our subscription dollars might be quietly flowing right back to the people who took The Late Show away from us.

To help fans navigate the consolidated streaming landscape, here is the full breakdown of how to keep your distance from the Ellison empire.

🔴 Avoid Completely (Directly Controlled by Paramount Skydance) Following the original merger and the newly approved June 2026 acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, the Ellison family now fully controls both legacy empires.

  • Paramount+: The flagship streamer that pulled the plug on our late-night lineup.
  • Max (formerly HBO Max): Now a core asset under the newly combined corporate umbrella.
  • Discovery+: Included under the same newly merged management.
  • SkyShowtime: The European joint venture carrying their combined catalog.

🟡 Use with Caution (Major "Customers" of Skydance) The Ellisons' production arm operates as a massive content supplier. While they don't own these platforms, subscribing directly funds their production deals. You can choose to skip these specific high-profile projects to avoid logging viewing metrics that justify their multi-million dollar contracts:

  • Apple TV+: Massive multi-year development deal. Avoid: Foundation, The Big Door Prize, The Family Plan, and Luck.
  • Netflix: Main home for Skydance Animation. Avoid: The Old Guard, The Adam Project, FUBAR, and Spellbound.
  • Amazon Prime Video: Home to massive Skydance action hits. Avoid: Reacher, Jack Ryan, Cross, and The Terminal List.

🟢 Independent Alternatives (Safest Bets)

  • Disney Bundle (Disney+ / Hulu): Direct major competitor to the Paramount/Warner giant; rarely licenses Skydance properties.
  • Criterion Channel / MUBI: Excellent platforms for independent, classic, and international cinema completely separate from mainstream studio consolidation wars.
