Louis CK was head writer on The Dana Carvey Show in 1996 when Colbert worked on the comedy as an actor. So The Late Show host’s reaction was from a place of history, especially since Louis CK had to cancel Thursday's visit. “For those of you tuning in to see my interview with Louis CK tonight, I have some bad news,” Colbert said jokingly. “Then I have some really bad news. Louis cancelled his appearance here tonight because The New York Times broke this story today: Five women are accusing Louis CK of sexual misconduct.” Referring to an earlier joke, Colbert said, “When reached for comment, Jesus said, ‘La-la-la-la-la. I don’t want to hear about it, I was a big fan!’”
