Different audiences for different times--and you and I are not the target audiences for those shows.
Another main difference is that Colbert and Fallon don't do cooking and fashion segments (well, if Colbert does, it's either Martha Stewart or his friend Jose Andres), which to a certain extent are fixtures of most of the daytime shows (along with the more repugnant home shopping segments, and yes there are 800 numbers and website URLs on the lower thirds during those segments) and there aren't the "real people" segments that Kelly Clarkson does a lot of. And that's what daytime does today--mostly talk and court shows with a few game shows and the remaining soaps. No movies on the local stations or sitcom reruns, although in Chicago the technical replacement for "Ellen" is "Dateline" reruns. That and expanded news. If you want to watch old sitcoms, go to MeTV and the other classic TV subchannels or streaming. And I think there is still force of habit, especially among the older audiences who were not happy to see "Days of Our Lives" go to Peacock a few weeks ago. As for NETWORK daytime programming, the newest is the NBC News show that replaced "Days," followed by the midday extension of "GMA" on ABC and then "The Talk" on CBS (12 years ago).
