Adam Sandler, Anderson Cooper, Jon Stewart, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, John Oliver and Andy Cohen were among those who made surprise appearances on Monday's episode after CBS announced that the late night show would be ending in May 2026.

The president’s post comes after CBS unexpectedly canceled Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” last week. In response to the cancellation, Trump initially wrote, “I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!”

CBS “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert returned to TV for the first time since the stunning news last week that the network has decided to pull the plug on the historic franchise. The final episode will air in May 2026.
