CBS Sports GolfDVR Alert: The Late Show with David Letterman and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson will be delayed by 15 minutes on Thursday and Friday, due to Masters golf tournament highlights on CBS.

That Didn’t Take LongStephen Colbert Late Show Host
After waiting only a week for the news to settle in that David Letterman will be retiring as host of The Late Show on CBS in 2015, the network announced that comedian and satirist Stephen Colbert has been named the show’s new host. Putting an end to swirling speculation about possible replacements, the network says Colbert has signed a five-year deal. Dozens of media outlets have been reporting that Colbert plans to drop his faux conservative commentator character from The Colbert Report on Comedy Central and appear as himself on The Late Show.

Now, the media attention will turn back to Craig Ferguson, who has said in countless interviews over the past ten years that he was not interested in moving to 11:30. The question now becomes will he re-up for a longer run on The Late Late Show, or depart when his contract expires later this year? As we’ve said before, Craig is the only person whose opinion counts when it comes to his future plans, so we’ll wait and see what he has in store.

Craig was the first to congratulate Colbert on his new deal:

Congratulations to the hugely talented and fragrant and lovely on the new gig. Welcome to the CBS funhouse.
