Stephen ColbertAmerican comedian and host of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
Colbert recounted that the show had a 13-episode commitment but only eight were shot and seven aired.
“it was a 13-episode commitment, 13-episode buyout. That's why I moved to New York, you know, security. And then we shot eight of them, and seven of them went to air”

Colbert said The Dana Carvey Show was a poor fit for its ABC time slot following Home Improvement and was doomed from the start.
“This was on ABC at like 8.30 or something after Home Improvement, whatever, after Home Improvement. It was a pure mismatch. They did not go together at all”
