Bee has some experience with a show getting canceled in the wake of a merger: Her TBS late-night show Full Frontal With Samantha Bee was cut following the Warner Bros. Discovery merger (which is currently in the process of being undone ), and it was on the air when AT&T and TBS parent Time Warner merged.

Samantha Bee doesn't find it surprising that CBS decided to cancel The Late Show with Stephen Colbert amid the Paramount and Skydance merger.

I know so many people who work there. I love Stephen. I consider him to be a friend,” Bee said, but noted she was "not surprised" by Paramount's decision.
