CBS has axed Stephen Colbert's "The Late Show." Here's a look at how his career in comedy led him from "The Daily Show" to Letterman's old seat.

Jon Stewart addressed the speculation that his late-night Comedy Central talk show might be canceled as the network’s parent company, Paramount Global, prepares to merge with Skydance Media. The comedian’s remarks came the same day that CBS announced its plan to cancel “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” after the program’s next season.
