SHOWTIME has released the poster art and a new "presidential" teaser for its live election special, Stephen Colbert's Live Election Night Democracy's Series Finale: Who's Going To Clean Up This Sh*t? The special is a partnership between THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT and SHOWTIME, featuring Emmy® and Peabody® Award-winning late night host Stephen Colbert. Colbert will bring his unique comedic perspective, political satire and social commentary to Showtime live on Tuesday, November 8 at 11 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. PT on air, on demand and over the internet.

On election night, Colbert will be reacting in real-time to the election results as the state by state returns come in, making it the perfect election night destination for people who want to see all the latest news, without actually having to watch the news. Speaking to an eclectic group of guests, Colbert will deliver a bleep-free night of comedy on premium cable, allowing him to say things he's never been able to say in this campaign, such as directly quote a candidate. Airing live from The Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City with a studio audience, the one-hour program will also feature remote segments and several surprise guests, and will reveal who won the presidency.

While THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT has broadcast live to critical and audience acclaim several times recently following the political conventions and the presidential and vice presidential debates, this special is unprecedented, as it is the first time the show has partnered with a cable network to produce a live event. The election night special is produced by the same team behind The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Stephen Colbert, Chris Licht, Tom Purcell and Jon Stewart are the executive producers.

SHOWTIME is currently available to subscribers via cable, DBS and telco providers, and as a stand-alone streaming service through Apple®, Roku®, Amazon and Google. Consumers can also subscribe to Showtime via Hulu, Sony PlayStation® Vue and Amazon Prime Video.
