I think I read awhile ago that media companies are getting ready to experiment more with long form video podcasts made specifically for streaming services, similar to that Netflix Letterman one. That is probably where their strategy is going, and I wouldn't be surprised if after Late Show ends that then it becomes about who can get Colbert for an exclusive podcast deal.

Kimmel’s contract ends next year too and he’s hinted at that being the end for him. I would bet ABC doesn’t continue with a new host so it’s possible by next summer NBC is the only standard network with late night.

It was a decent podcast and showed just how bad Fallon is at everything.

Halitosis Jones replied to the thread The Streaming Thread+.

One sign the writing was on the wall for the format was during the writer's strike Colbert, Fallon, Kimmel, Myers, and Oliver started a podcast together, and almost nobody listened to it or gave a shit.

plus how much money they spent on sexual harassment lawsuits

I have had a working theory for awhile that the Trump era (among other factors) ruined late night. Like around 2014/2015 when the late night shift happened it was settling into a place where Fallon was obviously trying to do a Carson-esque fun celebrity hangout thing, Colbert was trying to do a kinda Dick Cavett highbrow intellectual thing where he interviewed academics and writers, and Kimmel was trying to be Letterman doing pranks and man on the street bits. That was interesting. Then 2016 happened and they all were trying to be like The Daily Show and were indistinguishable from eachother.

Paramount is just an endless array of stingy, weird decisions and cost-cutting across the board. From all the shitty bending the knee to Trump to talking with Bari Weiss to its cancellations and turning entire channels into re-run factories. Like, I truly don’t get what the endgame is here - obviously outside of profit - because it doesn’t seem like it’s entertainment.

Also there is the hated rights deal dispute they're currently having with the creators of South Park

[MEDIA] Really wild. End of an era. EDIT: Didn’t see this was in the streaming thread.

Halitosis Jones replied to the thread The Streaming Thread+.

Paramount canceling Late Show before The Daily Show is kinda wild, especially in the weird rotating host phase they've been at for the past few years. Maybe that is next.

There's no way Conan would want it haha

Halitosis Jones replied to the thread The Streaming Thread+.

Conan is better where he's at now doing podcasting. That's the future of the comedic interview format.

Halitosis Jones liked Texas Flood's post in the thread The Streaming Thread+.

Give the job to Conan

Also intrigued by this Iñárritu film starring Tom Cruise that is supposed to be a comedy.

Halitosis Jones replied to the thread The Streaming Thread+.

Like "end" end? Or just end with him as host? The Late Show ending entirely is a fucking huge deal

Spielberg and UFO already had my money, but that's even better.

Had not heard about the wrestling part.

Halitosis Jones replied to the thread Entertainment Forum General Chat Thread.

I don't know how big of part it'll play but they put out a casting call for extras to play wrestling fans, and Chavo Jr, Lance Archer, and Brian Cage are in the cast. If Chavo is involved it must also mean he's doing wrestling stunt coordination behind the scenes as well. It may be just one segment.

Halitosis Jones replied to the thread Entertainment Forum General Chat Thread.

Was looking up upcoming movies in 2026 and I am very intrigued by this new Spielberg flick that all we know about the plot so far is that it'll involve UFOs and pro wrestling.
