Late Night with Seth Meyers

When Jay Leno announced his retirement of hosting NBC's The Tonight Show in 2014, Jimmy Fallon, known for being a cast member on NBC's Saturday Night Live for 6 years (with him anchoring Weekend Update for his last 4) and hosted Late Night for 5 years, was announced that he'll be the new host of The Tonight Show, meaning that he'll be passing the torch of Late Night to the next guy, and that person is Seth Meyers.

Like Fallon, Meyers was also a cast member on SNL, and was known mainly for anchoring Weekend Update, co-anchoring with Amy Poehler for his first 2 years on Update until Poehler went on maternity leave and her eventual leaving the show, with him anchoring solo for most of the rest of his tenure until he was joined by Cecily Strong for the first half of SNL's 39th season. He would leave SNL midseason when he was announced as the new host of NBC's Late Night.

Meyers was notably nervous throughout his first year and a half of his tenure, but he did get more comfortable once the producers started to cater the show more towards his strengths, especially with his recurring bits like A Closer Look (my 2nd personal favorite bit), Corrections, Amber Says What? (which shoutout to Amber Ruffin, whom I absolutely love), Day Drinking (my personal favorite bit) and tied for my 2nd favorite recurring bit, Jokes Seth Can't Tell.

If you're a fan of Seth Meyers, then you won't regret watching his current show!

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.

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.

It's pretty funny. There are some unfunny moments but, the best segment of this show is "A Closer Look". The celebrity interviews like every show are probably on average the most boring. I also like all of his side segments. He's no Colbert but, hes also a better than Fallon. Jimmy Fallon really is hesitant to ever criticize any politician. I love that Seth Meyers has the balls to criticize any politician. That being said, its a pretty entertaining show. The main segments could be longer and the celebrity interviews a little shorter though. <-- That would be my main criticism.
