Description: Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” walked away with the Emmy for Outstanding Variety Series — and six wins total — in a triumphant send-off for its final season, just weeks after CBS announced it wouldn’t be renewed. On “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Colbert joked he hadn’t heard a word from CBS about the wins — except for 40 suits they sent him, now lounging in his guest room. He described late-night as being tossed into a radioactive pool daily, then forcing audiences to glow back — and admitted he’s healthier and happier without the grind. The show’s abrupt May 2025 cancellation shocked the industry, but fans rallied hard, and Colbert’s heartfelt Emmy speeches have been met with roaring applause. He credited his 200-person crew — who poured their hearts into the show for 11 years — for making this legacy possible.
