Seth Meyers says that this is his ‘favorite interview’
February 2nd, 2024 under Larry David, Seth Meyers. [ Comments: none ]

Larry David was on Late Night yesterday, and Seth Meyers did an impressive job going back and forth with the curmudgeon comedian—the best I have ever seen anyone do with the Curb Your Enthusiasm star.

It started off with a bang, as in David going off on the drummer.

Then Meyers called out his guest for not having him guest on the HBO sitcom, even though he made him an offer. David explained to the host that he doesn’t think of him as an actor and doesn’t trust Meyers to act with his precious work. Thus, why he never got the call.

And Meyers wanted to save himself a phone call, so he asked David, who is going to see their friend Susie Essman, to send his regards to her. And he said no, Meyers should reach out to her himself. And he is right. Why do we have someone send our regards when we can do it ourselves?

But the best part came when David told two stories, hoping that Meyers would make the connection. And he did.

Therefore, ending the first part of their interview brilliantly.

But it was not over. There was still five minutes to go.

David called out the show for airing a clip from Curb without an introduction, so it didn’t make sense.

Then Meyers confronted David for attacking the lovable Elmo on the Today show earlier in the day. And he said he would do it again. And I bet he would,

Finally, Seth asked Larry to come back on the show just to chat. And he said, “You know what? I am not going to do that.”

David said that then, but he might change his mind when someone reads this Tweet to him from Meyers, “Top to bottom maybe my favorite interview ever.”

And it was one of mine too. Meyers does not get the respect he deserves because he is hands down the best interviewer on late night TV these days. Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, and Stephen Colbert could learn a thing or two from him.

Finally, these two played so well off of each other I would love to see them star in a father/son comedy. It couild be about Meyers needing to take in his dad, who was kicked out of his assisted living facility for obvious reasons.

Seth Meyers shows off his turkids!
November 27th, 2023 under Seth Meyers. [ Comments: none ]

Seth Meyers has two Thanksgiving traditions. The first is he brings his parents, Hilary and Laurence, and younger brother, Josh, onto Late Night for the holiday to dish about family secrets.

While they are old enough to be on his NBC late night show, his children are not. Therefore, he shares a sweet video of Ashe, 7, Axel, 5, and Addie, 2, dressed as turkeys to wish us a happy holiday! And I want to gobble them up because they are so scrumptious.

But not as scrumptious as his dog Frisbee, who is dressed as a pilgrim because why should he be left out of the mix?

Amber Ruffin and Jenny Hagel did Seth Meyers dirty
November 22nd, 2023 under Seth Meyers. [ Comments: none ]

Yesterday was the 50th edition of Jokes Seth Can’t Tell on Late Night. To honor the milestone, Amber Ruffin and Jenny Hagel decided to change things up. Instead of them, reading the punchlines, they had their boss, Seth Meyers, tell jokes about African Americans and lesbians.

And they didn’t share this information with him until they started the segment that was going to be the case.

How did it go? As bad for Meyers as you expected! But he did his best with each gulp of champagne.

Maybe it is because I am a sadist, but I hope they keep this format every time they do this bit.

Seth Meyers will go guestless on Monday
September 28th, 2023 under Seth Meyers. [ Comments: 1 ]

On Monday, Seth Meyers will return to Late Night after five months off due to the WGA strike. So you would think he would love to talk to some guests and catch up. Well, he is not going to have any on his show.

He explained why not, “No guests for the first show, just an hour long CLOSER LOOK to catch up on, you know, everything?”

I don’t fault him because a lot has happened in the five months he has been off the air, and that is just to Donald Trump. Plus, I am sure he has so much to say about Boobert’s Boobgate at the theater. So many things, so little time.

The late night hosts go back to work on Monday
September 27th, 2023 under Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, Stephen Colbert. [ Comments: none ]

When the WGA went on strike on May 2nd, the late night hosts stopped doing their talk shows on solidarity.

Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, and John Oliver got together and started the podcast Strike Force Five to raise money for the strikers.

Now that the WGA strike is over, the hosts announced today they are ready to go back to work on Monday.

FLASH!

THEIR MISSION COMPLETE, THE FOUNDING MEMBERS OF STRIKE FORCE 5 WILL RETURN TO THEIR NETWORK TELEVISION SHOWS THIS MONDAY 10/2, AND ONE OF THEM TO PREMIUM CABLE ON 10/1.

OF COURSE, IN A GREATER SENSE, THE STRIKE FORCE 5 WILL NEVER END, BECAUSE STRIKE FORCE 5 IS NOT A PLACE, STRIKE FORCE 5 IS NOT A PEOPLE, STRIKE FORCE 5 IS BARELY A PODCAST…NAY, STRIKE FORCE 5 IS AN IDEA. AN IDEA THAT FIVE MEN COULD TALK ON TOP OF EACH OTHER FOR 12 EPISODES, AND MAYBE SOMEBODY WOULD LISTEN. AS WE SAY GOODBYE, WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL THOSE SOMEBODIES.

TRULY, YOU WERE THE HEROES. WE WERE MOSTLY THE HEROES, BUT YOU WERE IN THERE, TOO.

WE WANT TO THANK THE ENTIRE STRIKE FORCE 5 TEAM, OUR WIVES, OUR SPECIAL GUESTS, AND APOLOGIZE TO CONAN O’BRIEN, WHO AGREED TO DO THE POD, BUT STEPHEN FORGOT TO SEND HIM ANY POSSIBLE DATES, AND THEN THE STRIKE ENDED.

GOODBYE FOR NOW, AND HELLO FOR LATER, BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE A FEW MORE EPISODES, UNLESS RYAN REYNOLDS CUTS OFF THE CASH.

THIS IS THE STRIKE FORCE 5 SIGNING OFF AND THE LATE NIGHT 5 SIGNING BACK ON…WHAT WAS THE PASSWORD TO MY WORK COMPUTER AGAIN? BABYSOMOZA?

STEPHEN COLBERT, JIMMY FALLON, JIMMY KIMMEL, SETH MEYERS, JOHN OLIVER

P.S. BOOMPoor Conan. First, Leno, and now the rest of them. He deserves better.

Back to the Five. You know they are super excited to get back and talk about all the GOP news they missed. And so much has gone on in five months.
