Late Night with Seth Meyers

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.

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?

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
