Stephen Colbert Partners with Showtime to Give Live Election Night Coverage

The late night host will be able to share his unfiltered, uncensored thoughts as election results pour in

Stephen Colbert is partnering with Showtime in a one-night only special to provide his own unique perspective on Election Night as the presidential results roll in.

The unique partnership between CBS’ late-night host and Showtime will be called "Stephen Colbert’s Live Election Night Democracy’s Series Finale: Who’s Going To Clean Up This Shi*t?" 

Showtime and CBS are sister networks.

The special was announced Monday by David Nevins, president and CEO of Showtime Networks Inc. The network said in a statement, "By bringing his unique comedic perspective to the anything-goes nature of premium cable, Colbert will be able to do things he's never been able to do in this campaign, such as directly quote a candidate without being bleeped."

The special will air Tuesday, Nov. 8, at 8 p.m.
