Who will be on the final show?
Colbert himself has stated he has been trying to get Pope Leo.
Did he?
Others have guessed It'll be Joe Bidden or LOTR filmaker Peter Jackson.
Or perhaps a close friend like Amy Sedaris or Jonathan Alter.

For the show’s final week, Colbert welcomed a slew of A-listers, including his pal Jon Stewart, musician Bruce Springsteen and director Steven Spielberg. But details of tonight’s finale remain largely under wraps, with no guests or segments announced in advance. By 11 a.m. ET, a line of fans had already started forming outside the Ed Sullivan Theater. Some had tickets; others were hopeful they could snag the few general admission spots available.
Starting tomorrow, CBS will replace “The Late Show” with “Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen.” As for Colbert's next move? Warner Bros. has tapped the “Lord of the Rings” superfan to write the franchise's next installment.

In the urban slang dictionary.
"Shit Show" #1 meaning is described as a public facing , unintended- PR disaster.
The #2 meaning?
"Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen"

Not funny by a wide margin.
Infact. It meets the criteria of the #1 meaning.

Yesiree Jimmy K. I agree 100%.
After tonight. Cbs/ Paramount programming is going in the ban box. It wont be fofficult. The only thing ive watched on that network the last ? years. Colbert, Face the nation, 60 minutes &/or The Masters.
