This will mark the end of another late-night show for TBS after Conan O'Brien signed off in 2021, as well as the latest shake-up to the late-night landscape in general after James Corden announced he's leaving CBS' The Late Late Show next year.
"We're so thankful for our loyal audience, our amazing team, and that we got to annoy the right people every week — that there wasn't wrestling or baseball or a very special episode of Big Bang," a message shared on Full Frontal's Twitter account said.
The show added, in a jab at former President Donald Trump's message to Jan. 6 rioters, "To our loyal fans — we love you, you're very special. Go home, and go home in peace."
