“The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” will not be seen this week, host Stephen Colbert announced on social media.
Colbert explained the cancellation in a post on his Instagram.
“Sorry to say that I have to cancel our shows this week. I’m sure you’re thinking, ‘Turkey overdose, Steve? Gravy boat capsize?’ Actually, I’m recovering from surgery for a ruptured appendix,” he posted.
“I’m grateful to my doctors for their care and to Evie and the kids for putting up with me. Going forward, all emails to my appendix will be handled by my pancreas,” Colbert posted.
Colbert, who is 59, offered no other details, according to the New York Post.
“The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” debuted on CBS in 2015 as the successor to “The Late Show With David Letterman.”
