Stephen Colbert Announces End Date of 'The Colbert Report'
TV

The comedian will make his last appearance on the Comedy Central show Thursday, December 18.

AceShowbiz - The date for the final "Colbert Report" show has been set. Stephen Colbert announced on his show Thursday, October 30 that he would make his last appearance as the host of the Comedy Central late-night satirical program on Thursday, December 18.

The comedian made the announcement while promoting the paperback release of his book "America Again: Re-becoming the Greatness We Never Weren't". "Stephen Colbert, the guy you've seen here every night for nine years will be gone. All you'll have left of me is this book," he said. "So pick up America Again in paperback for a loved one. Or for a hated one. Go to your local independent book store, because I have a longtime war against Amazon, and I will never relent. Or - buy it on Amazon, because, you know, just buy it."

Colbert is leaving Comedy Central for CBS, where he will replace David Letterman as the host of the "Late Show". "Late Show with Stephen Colbert" will debut sometime in 2015 following Letterman's final broadcast earlier next year.
