Announced this morning, Stephen Colbert has signed a 5 year contract with CBS to replace David Letterman on the Tonight Show, in 2015.
Wasn't expecting it, myself. I can imagine the money's better, but Colbert had built quite a following with his person on the Colbert Report. It's unfortunate, since this is likely the end of the Colbert Report...but good luck to him anyway!
