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.
I absolutely love this show. The opening monologues and the sections like A Closer Look or Ya Burnt are hilarious.
I was never ever a letter to stand SNL, this is not the same humor. This humor is sharp, it reminds me of The Colbert Report. I didn't like David Letterman either, he was too pretentious. And Jay Leno was OK, sometimes a bit too simple.
I find Seth Meyers' humor just right. But then again - I'm never into the popular stuff, so seeing other users' negative reviews doesn't surprise me a bit!
A lot of people complain about too much political jokes. That's exactly what I love the most. Our political class is a joke, nothing wrong with laughing about it.
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.
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"
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.
