I have spent a weird amount of time wondering what happens to those massive TV signs after a talk program like Stephen Colbert's The Late Show ends. Maybe they get boxed up in some CBS warehouse or disappear into a private collection. Maybe they end up watching over somebody’s basement bar while a guy named Todd explains, for the eighth time, how he “almost went into comedy.” Thankfully, Colbert’s old sign got a much better ending after Colbert’s show was canceled and ended its run amid the 2026 TV schedule.
WeHo Bistro in West Hollywood revealed on Instagram that it acquired the Late Show sign after it was auctioned to benefit World Central Kitchen, and the restaurant plans to make it available for fans to see. You can check out the post below.
