With the hosts Merv Griffin, Pat Sajak, David Letterman and Stephen Colbert, CBS has taken many runs at late-night TV. Some were more successful than others.

TV hosts and celebrities are reacting to news of the cancellation of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and the entire franchise.

Former Late Show EP Rob Burnett tapped into his comedy writer background when he was asked about CBS' decision to ax the late-night franchise.

The actor was promoting the mockumentary 'I'm Still Here' when he delivered one of the strangest interviews ever recorded for late night television.

On Tuesday night, the star said that he originally did the pre-interview in character and “I realized that it was just a little silly, so I called them back and I said, ‘Listen, this is what I’m doing. I’m coming out here and I’m doing this whole thing.’”
