Instead of eating lunch at your desk alone, eat lunch at your desk alone with Stephen Colbert! The new host of CBS's LATE SHOW has introduced a new week-long daily series he calls "Stephen Colbert Has Stephen Colbert's Lunch with You, Starring Stephen Colbert." Check out Part 1 below!

THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT will premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 8(11:35 PM-12:37 AM, ET/PT). The show will be broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City. Specific creative elements and producers will be announced at a later date.

A multi-talented and respected host, writer, producer, satirist and comedian, Colbert is well-known for his previous late night show, "The Colbert Report," which concluded on Friday, Dec. 18, 2014. The program received wide-spread critical acclaim and earned two Peabody Awards and 29 Emmy Award nominations, including two Emmy wins for Outstanding Variety Series (2013, 2014) and four Emmy wins for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Program (2008, 2010, 2013, 2014). Prior to that, Colbert spent eight years as a correspondent on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" as an on-air personality and writer of news satire for the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning series.
