“The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” will air live on election night this November, CBS announced Monday.
The live broadcast will focus on the midterm elections on Tuesday, Nov. 6, from the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York. Guests for this show will be announced at a later time.
The last time “The Late Show” aired a live broadcast was Jan. 30, after President Donald Trump’s State of the Union Address. The Nov. 6 show will be the 18th live broadcast in the show’s history.
Colbert recently hosted Hillary Clinton, who told the late night host that Trump is putting the U.S. republic in danger.
“I really want people to take it seriously regardless of who you voted for, whether you even voted, and think about why our democracy is in crisis, and I don’t use the word lightly. I really regret using the word because I wish it weren’t the case,” she said.
“Degrading the rule of law, delegitimizing our elections, attacking your favorite subject, truth and reason, spreading corruption, undermining our national unity,” she continued. “Each alone is a threat but you put it all together and it really is a crisis to who we are as a nation.”
