Late Show
Post-primetime television program
Late Show refers to television programming that airs late at night, typically after 11 PM, or specifically to one of the long-running American talk shows in that time slot.
The format features a host, celebrity interviews, comedy segments, and musical guests.
I stayed up to watch the Late Show.
The term often appears capitalized as part of a show's official title, most notably CBS's *Late Show with David Letterman* and its successor *The Late Show with Stephen Colbert*.
