Late Night with Seth Meyers

I think this is an important show, especially for those of us who don't want to spend a lot of time on political news. I think he should focus on a little more than just Trump, and goes a bit overboard on him, however.

Really liked what this guy says about Seth. So true-

About the monologue, he has some nights better than others but do all of them-

A very few of his jokes are kind of raunchy, I think he's surprising that way and still finding his way filling the late night space in his own way - it's a process people - so many things have been done before over the decades with so many hosts, after all

As for others who have referenced Craig Ferguson's gig - gee - the talking slightly animated skeleton was funny the first couple times it's watched, (with a little boozey help), but really!?! After awhile it'd get a tad distracting - " here I am watching a comedian with a talking skeleton - oh yeah - the comedian is talking now.... Time to listen"

I like the (a) level of maturity Seth brings

The show has improved a lot. Seth definitely seems in control whenever he is pushing his political agenda (even though he needs to tone that down a bit). The "Closer Look" segment is the best part of his show and I am always looking forward to that. His show is different from the other late night shows because it is more educational. The show has taken itself seriously. The regular complain about the show not being funny enough is valid but that's a direction that the makers have decided and they want to attract a certain kind of audience. Conan is funnier than any other talk show host but its not your traditional late night show, is it?

I absolutely love this show. The opening monologues and the sections like A Closer Look or Ya Burnt are hilarious.

I was never ever a letter to stand SNL, this is not the same humor. This humor is sharp, it reminds me of The Colbert Report. I didn't like David Letterman either, he was too pretentious. And Jay Leno was OK, sometimes a bit too simple.

I find Seth Meyers' humor just right. But then again - I'm never into the popular stuff, so seeing other users' negative reviews doesn't surprise me a bit!

A lot of people complain about too much political jokes. That's exactly what I love the most. Our political class is a joke, nothing wrong with laughing about it.

I honestly don't get why this show is getting bad reviews. I have to assume they are reviewing the episodes that aired pre-COVID. I've been watching recently and I have to say it is a pretty funny show. Since March 2020, Seth has been doing the show without an audience. He has really been doing well. Despite being overused, A Closer Look is hilarious most of the time. I do have to warn that Seth does get more political than Jimmy Fallon, whose show airs directly before Seth's show on weeknights, but other than that, it is fine. In my opinion, Seth has been able to squeeze a lot more jokes into an episode now than he was able to when he paused for audience laughter every 6 seconds. I recommend giving the show a try when it comes back on August 9th. Or just watch a full episode now on NBC's website.
