Stephen Colbert Announced the News on Last Night’s Episode of “The Late Show”

Taylor Tomlinson has been named host of CBS’ new late night series, AFTER MIDNIGHT. Stephen Colbert made the announcement during last night’s episode of THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT when he brought Tomlinson up onto the Ed Sullivan theater stage.

A critically acclaimed comedian, Tomlinson is known for her Netflix comedy specials “Look at You” and “Quarter Life Crisis.” She continues to sell out shows across the country and worldwide for her recent “Have It All Tour,” including four nights at Boston’s Boch Center Wang Theater, which tied for the most sold-out comedy shows in one run at the venue.

Jo Firestone is co-executive producer and head writer for the series; Alexx Wells is also co-executive producer.
