On Monday, Stephen Colbert posted on Threads that this week’s episodes of The Late Show had to be canceled because his appendix burst.
Sorry to say that I have to cancel our shows this week. I’m sure you’re thinking, “Turkey overdose, Steve? Gravy boat capsize?” Actually, I’m recovering from surgery for a ruptured appendix. I’m grateful to my doctors for their care and to Evie and the kids for putting up with me. Going forward, all emails to my appendix will be handled by my pancreas.
This week’s scheduled guests were Jennifer Garner, Baz Luhrmann, Patrick Stewart, Kelsey Grammer, Barbara Streisand, and Jon Batiste. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
