    John Oliver. Enjoyed his time standing in for Jon Stewart.

    I'd like to see Louis CK, Oliver or expanded daily show. I love Colbert and I'm happy for him but I'll miss his show immensely.

    Toss up between Larry Wilmore or Larry Wilmore. Gotta give it to Larry Wilmore.

    It has got to be Larry Wilmore!!

    Anybody but Tracy Morgan.. I HATE his comedy. Have always found him ENTIRELY unfunny!!

    Oliver would be my top choice, but I also like the 1hr daily show idea. Aziz, Peretti, Gevais are intriguing as well.

    I hope they bring back John Oliver to Comedy Central. He would be perfect as a replacement to Steven Colbert

    Bill Maher, It's so obvious.. He's political, his show is very close stephens.

    Chelsea Handler!! If you put a network that understands comedy behind Chelsea Lately, it will take off like a rocket. Amy Schumer would be a great choice too.

    Jason Jones from the daily show!

    Anthony Jeselnik. Easy.

    John Oliver would be a no brainer.... I like the idea of Ricky Gervais too. Or maybe Stephen Merchant. His brilliant HBO show was just cancelled....
    I'd be ok with the Daily Show expanding to an hour though. Then Stewart wouldn't have to throw to the web quite as much....

    I agree with Chris, I LOVE Colbert and am happy to see him moving up in the world, but yet another Straight White Male on late night?? REALLY? Chelsea Handler should have gotten the gig, or Neil Patrick Harris (who was my dream pick). So I think Chelsea would be a great fit to take over Colbert's spot. Comedy Central could potentially give her the freedom and creativity she was forever griping about NOT getting from E!

    Andy Daly, Michael Ian Black, Paul F. Tompkins, Rob Huebel, anyone other than this list you put out

    John Oliver or Chris Hardwick

    John Oliver.
    Tina Fey.
    Amy Sedaris.
    Ira Glass.
    Peter Sagal (of "Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me")
    Ricky Gervais.
    Jim Gaffigan

    Amy Shumer is pornographic. Chelsea Handler is pornographic and dim.

    Chris Hardwick nerdist news.

    I was sure Chelsea Handler was going to get the Late Show gig vs. Colbert. Why does broadcast tv have such an aversion to a female late night host. Such a shame.

    Chelsea Handler helloooo!!! Aziz , Aisha and some of the others already have a show. She's leaving E! And comedy central should be a great place for her. She'll probably end up getting a show after Conan on TBS.
