Citing the enormous effort involved in producing each week's show, and the want to explore other formats, the cast decided that the second season of The Late Show would be the last. Most of the performers have remained prominent in the Australian comedy scene.

Jane Kennedy, Tom Gleisner, Santo Cilauro and Rob Sitch formed Working Dog Productions, and made the successful TV programmes Frontline (1994-1997), Funky Squad (1995), A River Somewhere (1997-1998), The Panel (1998-2004), All Aussie Adventures (2001-), and Thank God You're Here (2006-), and the hugely successful movies The Castle (1997) and The Dish (2000).

Tony Martin and Mick Molloy had a top-rating radio show Martin/Molloy (1995-1998), before moving into film with Tackle Happy (2000), Crackerjack (2002), Bad Eggs (2003) and BoyTown (2006). Both currently host radio shows on the national Triple M network: Molloy's Tough Love (2004-) and Martin's Get This (2006-).

Judith Lucy appeared in both Crackerjack and Bad Eggs, and continues to tour with a series of successful one-woman shows.
