Stephen Colbert has won television, according to Stephen Colbert

After nearly nine years hosting The Colbert Report, he is moving on to greener pastures — also know as network television.

Colbert dropped by The Daily Show with Jon Stewart to officially "announce" the end of The Colbert Report, saying "it's become clear to me that I've won television." Colbert's departure comes as no surprise, of course; CBS announced earlier this month that Colbert would succeed David Letterman as host of the Late Show in 2015.
