Letterman's Replacement is...
Get ready for the Late Show with … Stephen Colbert.
The star of The Colbert Report will replace David Letterman as host of the Late Show, CBS announced Thursday.
"Simply being a guest on David Letterman's show has been a highlight of my career. I never dreamed that I would follow in his footsteps, though everyone in late night follows Dave's lead," Colbert, 49, says in a statement. "I'm thrilled and grateful that CBS chose me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go grind a gap in my front teeth."
Colbert has led Comedy Central's The Colbert Report since 2005, winning over audiences with his satirical conservative persona and scathing critiques of the news.
Last week, Letterman, 66, announced he's retiring after more than three decades on air. Colbert has signed a five-year agreement with CBS and will take over the Late Show once Letterman finalizes his exit.

Re: Letterman's Replacement is...
I love him, but it's going to be weird for viewers and probably for him because most people really just know him as his character.
I will miss his show. I love it.

I wonder if he's going to play himself or his character.
