I don't know what has happened to this show but the monologue only managed to get one or two laughs from me. At least the house band is still fantastic, even without Jon Batiste.
The Hispanic skit was the lamest and most pitiful piece of "attempted-comedy" I have seen in years.
Ana de Armas is the only redeeming feature of this lacklustre episode. With admirable poise and grace Ana coped with a singularly trite interview from Colbert. Always showing off photographs of celebrities. Questions about what the red carpet is like and such was just pathetic. I cringed so hard.
Ken Burns decided it was entertaining to dredge up historical mistakes from the 1940s. Just what one is looking for in a late night show... NOT.
And, as usual, unfortunately another mediocre musician to top off the show.

Essentially, this series is Jordan Peterson telling the audience his views on certain personal and societal positions when it comes to psychological well-being. Dr. Peterson is a champion of making the most of the individual's life through interpersonal respect and the pursuit of meaningful responsibility.
Honesty and forthrightness can be difficult, yet Peterson argues convincingly that it is a necessary part of having a purposeful life.
The series does seem like a stream of consciousness at times, but I find that Peterson is often at his best when he is thinking through his arguments. He may stumble at times, but he gets across a strong case for finding worth and happiness in what can be considered traditional values.
These values should not be lost. If one wishes to diverge from tradition, it is worth knowing full well what these traditions are and what one is losing if one wishes to live a nontraditional life.

This can be summed up as: having too many characters means that they all end up being superficial. There was no opportunity taken to dig deep into any of the characters, hence it was boring.
Clearly someone wanted this film to be diverse and inclusive, but it came off as shallow and stereotypical. Nobody should want that. I thought Marvel was savvy enough not to let something like this get made with their name on it.
Anyway, as usual, Gemma Chan was a standout.
