This week, there are a few major gaps in the schedule. Both The Daily Show with Trevor Noah on Comedy Central and Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Bravo are pre-empted by other broadcasts, so they won’t be out this week. Also, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on CBS has yet to announce its guest list.
As always, these schedules are subject to change based on guests’ availability or last-minute changes. Scroll on for a list of this week’s daytime and late-night talk show guests.
