Late-night television is looking a little different these days. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert officially wrapped in May on the 2026 TV schedule following a surprising cancellation. Plus, because of that and the brief suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live, there have been questions about the future of this kind of show. Now, Jimmy Fallon is sharing his thoughts on carrying on in the absence of The Late Show.Like many late-night hosts, Fallon shared his support for Stephen Colbert following the cancellation of his CBS show. The Tonight Show host even brought his friend and colleague a parting gift when he was a guest on The Late Show ahead of the final episode. Now, since late-night is officially one show down, Fallon opened up to USA Today about moving forward without Colbert and how much people really need late-night right now:The idea of it is that it's just someone that you can talk to that's there for you, that you can laugh, and you can know what's going on in pop culture in the world. I think that's just needed.It’s still hard to fathom late night without Colbert, but unfortunately, the show must go on, as they say. Additionally, it’s not just that Colbert is out, but CBS doesn’t even have a late-night series anymore. The Late Show was canceled altogether and replaced with Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen, meaning viewers have one less network to turn to late at night when they want someone to talk to, as Fallon put it. Earlier this year, Kimmel also shared some bleak thoughts on late-night TV’s future, revealing he didn’t know what things could look like a decade from now. Of course, the TV landscape is always changing, so you truly don’t know what will be different. However, he was still optimistic because of the Internet and other means of bringing comedy and satire to people. Between that and Fallon's comments about these shows being needed, I have hope that these guys will fight to keep the format alive. Even though late-night's future feels a bit foggy, the support among its hosts and fans is very clear. On top of Fallon's support, Jimmy Kimmel not only campaigned for Colbert’s Emmy, which ultimately turned into a success, but he paid tribute by going dark on the day The Late Show’s final episode aired. It was a sweet gesture, and really showed just how close the late-night hosts are, despite being on competing networks. Additionally, the Jimmys, Seth Meyers, and John Oliver all appeared on The Late Show before the end.As for Colbert, he made sure to get one last laugh in after The Late Show went off the air. After scoring its first Emmy win last year and receiving a standing ovation, The Late Show was nominated for Outstanding Variety Series at this year’s Emmys. I wouldn’t be surprised if the support for Colbert continued, especially since this will be the last time The Late Show will be up for awards. In the meantime, ABC and NBC's shows will continue to air, and hopefully they stick around, because I think Jimmy Fallon's point is valid. We need something to turn to when we need a pick-me-up, and that's exactly what these shows provide.
