“The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”may seem like it offers a never-ending sequence of jokes at the expense of Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans, but it really only seems that way — while “The Late Show” does air year-round, it does take breaks of a week or two every couple months.

We’ve got good news for you, though, because this week is not one of those weeks. All-new episodes of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” are airing all five nights from May 7 to May 11.

Below you’ll find all the details about Colbert’s lineup of guests for the week.

Monday, May 7 — guests are Jim Parsons from “The Big Bang Theory” and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, with a musical performance by Lake Street Dive.

Tuesday, May 8 — guests are actors Michael B. Jordan and Matt Walsh, with a stand-up comedy performance by Heather Pasternak.

Wednesday, May 9 — guests are co-anchor of “CBS This Morning” Gayle King and Vanity Fair editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

Thursday, May 10 — guests are Annette Bening, Wyatt Cenac and Daniel Boulud.

Friday, May 11 — Mayim Bialik from “The Big Bang Theory,” along with what CBS describes as a “special appearance” by Melissa McCarthy and a musical performance by Leon Bridges.

“The Late Show” airs at 11:35 p.m. EST and PST right after your local news in most places, and is followed by “The Late Late Show with James Corden” immediately after.

Colbert has one of the few late night shows that airs new episodes five nights a week, with “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” as the only other one. “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” and “The Late Late Show” each only air new episodes from Monday through Thursday, with a rerun airing on Friday nights.
