Stephen Colbert received the help of some surprise guests during a Coldplay-inspired segment that trashed CBS’s cancelation of his show. “People out there are bummed about the show ending,” Colbert began.
The Late Show With Stephen Colbert has never won any Emmy in its previous nine seasons despite some notable streaks of excellence. (It has been nominated 31 times.)
