Byron Allen breaks silence on Stephen Colbert replacement rumours
Byron Allen is finally responding after people started comparing him to Stephen Colbert following the end of The Late Program on CBS.
As his program Comics Unleashed gets ready to take over the late night slot, Allen made it clear that he is not trying to replace Colbert.
The 65-year-old notable praised the longtime TV emcee and called him “irreplaceable” while speaking about the big change at the network.
CBS recently confirmed that Comics Unleashed will move into the 11:35 p.m. broadcast slot after The Late Program aired its final chapter this week.
However, the decision marked the end of one of showing’s longest running late night franchises.
