CBS has filled its soon-to-be-vacant 11:35 p.m. time slot. The network said Monday that beginning May 22, the day after the finale of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” the hour will be filled by “Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen.”Because “Comics Unleashed” is a half-hour program, CBS will air two back-to-back episodes each night. The 12:35 a.m. slot will then be filled by “Funny You Should Ask,” a syndicated game show created by Allen and hosted by Jon Kelley. CBS has a time-buy agreement with Allen Media Group for the 2026-27 season, meaning Allen pays to air his programs on the CBS network. Allen, for his part, has made no secret of his interest in Colbert’s time slot.
