The Minority Report to replace Colbert

Just like it did with Stephen Colbert nine years ago, Comedy Central and Jon Stewart have gone to the bench of correspondents on The Daily Showto find a host for the post-Daily Show 11:30 PM slot. Senior Black correspondentLarry Wilmore will host a new nightly program,The Minority Report, which will launch in January 2015, following the end of The Colbert Report.(Colbert will be departing Comedy Central at the end of his contract in December to prepare fortaking over CBS’ Late Show from David Letterman.) Wilmore also is attached as showrunner of ABC comedy Black-ish, which was just picked up to series. He is expected to complete his obligations, get the show off the ground and help with the transition before segueing to The Minority Report.
