![]() Making Colbert Great Again was a process, one which began long before the idea of a President Trump seemed realistic. Late-night shows don’t turn on a dime, and audiences don’t shift allegiances on a whim. The Colbert streak began the week of President Trump’s inauguration, and that’s probably not a coincidence. While Fallon’s show still skews younger, Colbert has surged ahead of Fallon in overall audience, racking up five consecutive weekly victories. But like so much else of late, that’s changed in 2017. Week after week, for most of 2015 and all of 2016, Fallon’s Tonight Show would draw a bigger audience and better demographics than Colbert’s Late Show. Until recently, the ratings battle between NBC’s Jimmy Fallon and CBS’s Stephen Colbert wasn’t much of a battle at all. Photo-Illustration: Maya Robinson/Vulture and Photo by Getty Images ![]()
