Byron Allen Addresses Taking Over Stephen Colberts Time Slot | E! News [YU8VW6yt6VM]
With Comics Unleashed taking over The Late Show's time slot after Stephen Colbert signed off May 21, Byron Allen shared insight into his series moving from its 12:35 a.m. spot on CBS. "At the end of the day, I'm not trying to replace Colbert," Allen explained in a May 22 interview on NPR's Newsmakers. "I am not trying to hold on to his audience because Comics Unleashed has been around 20 years and has its own audience." With guests like Kevin Hart, Chelsea Handler and Nate Bargatze, the media mogul invites a rotating panel of fellow comics to deliver monologues from stand-up routines. So, he sees the series as a fresh face for the primetime late-night circuit. "Good luck finding another show," he emphasized, "that's had on more comedians of every shape and size and color."
