Late Night with Seth Meyers

I have loved every episode post-covid, the sense of humor and more casual air between him, his writers, and everyone else on set (who, let me just say, I LOVED being able to hear them laughing along throughout the no audience episodes 😭) make it easy to laugh along even with the jokes that don't quite land, and in all seriousness, I genuinely love his impressions very much.

The show is a bit twisted. It is much better than the Late Late Show which I find is a bit manic for no reason. But Seth's delivery is professional and usually funny. The skits on the show are funny or odd and that is good too. I do believe that Fred needs to be there more often. I also like that it has, like Jimmy Fallon, a direct line to the talent on SNL. I can find no real issue with the jokes. Some hit and some don't but lets look back to Dave letterman and even Johnny Carson. Some of their stuff didn't hit at all. So picking on Seth for having a few jokes go south is just as easy on any show. Overall I like watching the show just about every night.

Since day one, I watched every episode but he has succeeded to finally turn me off. The show should be renamed Late Night MSNBC. I don't want to end my night getting aggravated by politics. I am an independent who voted for Obama but Seth's constant bashing of Republicans is totally turning me off. I have noticed his mean attacks are even aimed at Sanders, as if Seth has made it his mission to get Hillary "Republicans are my enemy" Clinton elected. Bravo Seth! Good job making a loyal viewer give up on you. Even though I think your comedy is funny (Love the Venn Diagrams, Florida or Truth, Dog Shaming) your politics is not. Goodbye for now. If you decide to be a true comedy show in the future, I may consider watching again.

Although I tend to skip the monologue because it's overtly political. I get that's his niche. I really look forward to the thanksgiving episodes. I tear up at the family video clips sometimes. He seems very approachable. I like the more relaxed look.

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.
