Description: Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” capped its historic 11-season run with an Emmy win for outstanding variety series — a sweet, classy farewell that spotlighted his writing team as the real unsung heroes of late-night TV. While CBS cited financial shifts and political turbulence (including a Trump-related settlement and social media jabs at competitors), Colbert kept his acceptance speech focused on gratitude: thanking his wife for being his pandemic audience and viewers for sticking with him through the years. With five Creative Arts Emmys already this week alone, including wins for writing and directing, this final award felt like the perfect send-off — no politics, just pure appreciation for the craft and the crew.
