Supposedly, CBS wants Colbert. That is interesting because we don't really know him outside of TV character.

UM....BYE CHELSEA HATERS!! Really hope something comes of this and she gets it ;-)):-))

I don't know how I feel about Chelsea.

Chelsea Handler's moment is over. And she knows it. Her E! show has been in a steady ratings decline since its peak in 2010. She is ending the show when her contract is up early next year. She's a loose cannon after trashing the channel...she isn't going to be headlining CBS's late night franchise.

I could definitely see them giving it to her. I wouldn't be surprised though if Craig takes it and Chelsea takes over Craig's show.

CBS would never give it to Chelsea...that would be an utter PR disaster for them. She's way too much for that network and its brand. Don't get me wrong she's absolutely hilarious but her jokes are too risque for the CBS audience and I don't see her moderating them in any fashion just to land that job.

LOL 95% percent of NBC shows get cancelled, you can hardly blame that on her. She wasn't even on the show really, at least as the star. If anything, it was Laura Prepon who was the problem. She was terrible.

LOL I actually liked the show but I knew it was doomed on NBC.

Everything's doomed on NBC except "L&O: Special Victims Unit," "The Voice" and DAYS. And DAYS isn't doomed, b/c NBC can't come up with anything to replace it.

I like the idea of Conan O'Brien returning to network TV. I don't think I've watched him more than twice since his move to TBS, but that's just me. Plus, I hate new people. I'd like to see a familiar face in the role, one who's already done a late-night network show.

The voice is doomed. It's still shiny and new and different enough, but it will crash in the ratings in a few seasons IMO.

Days and SVU will both likely outlive NBC somehow, lol.

I'll certainly miss him for his unwavering hatred of Jay Leno.

The problem with The Voice is winning it means nothing. To date has a single winner gone on to become a successful chart topper a la Kelly Clarkson? The stakes for The Voice are about as high as the first round of Wheel Of Fortune.

Stephen Colbert replacing David Letterman.

I like Stephen Colbert, but what a boring choice aka just what I expected. I was pulling for someone like Chris Rock or Chelsea Handler, but I knew that was never gonna happen.
