So Jeb Bush is going to be Stephen's first guest on the late show. Kind've a risky choice for but of them.

I'm assuming that someone, either from the show itself or the network, wants to show that Colbert isn't doing the same liberal satire stuff as on his old show.

It turns out Colbert was a Republican pretending to be a Democrat doing an exaggerated impression of a Republican all along.

Jeb Bush and Kendrick Lamar in the same episode. What a weird first show.

"Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is a talk show dying right in front of you!" Since its inception 18 months ago, Meyers' Late Night has completely remodeled their set (with a major revision to the band area prior to the new set,) shortened the opening theme, altered the loving format to a sitting monologue which is more reminiscent of a warmed-over Weekend Update rehearsal than a monologue, and the bandleader has been absent roughly 12 of those 18 months. ...yeah, things aren't going too well for the show.

According to Variety it's going to be George Clooney. http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/stephen-colbert-trump-musical-guest-cbs-tca-1201567110/ one of the best bits from the article quote:“Daily Show” producers asked Colbert to deliver an on-air thank you to Stewart — something he knew would make Stewart squirm. also some talk about the renovation of the Ed Sullivan Theater quote:He did offer insight into the remodeling of the Ed Sullivan Theater, which has been restored to highlight the venue’s original 1920s architecture. He said it looks more like a traditional Broadway theater now rather than a TV studio because production technology has improved so much that sound and lighting equipment doesn’t need to be as prominent. I'm actually kinda excited for it now. Conan's been off and on the past few weeks following Comic-Con- the interview with Ice Cube and his son was very good, though. I don't even bother looking at Fallon or Kimmel these days. Colbert and Noah will bring some good stuff, I think. Nostalgia4Butts fucked around with this message at 05:56 on Aug 13, 2015 |

pwn posted:"Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is a talk show dying right in front of you!" Carson Daly should strike while that failure iron is hot! Or, do nothing and let Seth sink into the murky brine because Carson has other things more important than 1:36am horseshit. Far more better than Seth has on his plate.

My guess is that Seth only got that gig so that NBC (with Lorne Michael's blessing) could hold onto him until Lorne finally decides to retire, so that he'll be available to take over for him.

quick interview with jay leno http://www.tvinsider.com/article/34180/jay-leno-on-his-tv-return-the-current-late-night-landscape-and-why-he-didnt-do-dave/quote:I think that’s Jimmy Kimmel’s problem. I think he’s a talented guy, I think he’s funny. But he has a mean streak, and it comes across. He does this thing where he takes Halloween candy from kids and the kids cry. What am I missing here? It is funny I guess, but it’s mean-based. I think that’s why he’s not higher in the ratings.

I don't care for Leno at all, but I pretty much agree with the entirety of that quote. I've never seen the bit in question but it doesn't really sound funny at all just kind of lovely.

I don't care for Kimmel because I've always felt like he's an outsider desperately trying to act like he's one of the gang, especially when he forcibly inserted himself in the Conan/Leno/Letterman drama years ago. He's been around long enough now this opinion is probably pretty outdated though, considering he's the longest running current late night host. I always thought that Leno's Jay Walking segments were far, far meaner than anything Kimmel ever did. We're going to ask you 200 questions, and then air the 3 you didn't get right so you look literally retarded. This is hilarious.

I don't care for Kimmel because have you SEEN his loving show holy poo poo I tuned in back when they had the exclusive GotG trailer and it's one of the most excruciating talk show experiences I've ever seen. I'd watch Leno over that poo poo any day of the week.

Kimmel's prerecorded stuff is really good + funny his interviews can be downright painful though. He got Dave on his goddamn show- who never goes ANYWHERE- and the interview was just horrid and awkward in a not fun way.

Jaywalking took Steve Allen's routine and said, "hey, what if we approach this like horrible tools? eh, eh?" The real cynicism of Jaywalking was that you knew people were playing it up for the camera. If you don't act like you can't add 2+2, you don't get on TV. Play it right, and you can be a Jaywalking All-Star!! pwn fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Aug 14, 2015 |

pwn posted:"Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is a talk show dying right in front of you!" Yeah the entire Seth Meyers Late Night experiment seems awful. For whatever you think of Fallon, at least he rolled up his sleeves, got the right people in there and made a show that was new and fit him. I think it worked a lot better at 12:30 but that is NBC for you. Jimmy is that retarded cousin you have that you can't stand him 90% of the time but he is just so happy all the time that other 10% of the time makes him endearing. Seth is your coworker who is straight laced enough that makes upper management love him but lacks any sort of edge or anything interesting to connect with anyone he works with. You know the guy who will come up to you and ask you about the "big game" even though you know nothing about sports and then spend 10 minutes talking about how wonderful his life and family are, yet sounds like the worst place in hell to you? I think Jimmy surrounded himself with the best people to do a show with, Seth surrounded himself with his friends and it shows.

I think we've just reached the quota for late-night hosts doing the exact same shtick without changing the formular: Conan and Kimmel are enough. I'm kinda glad Meyers is failing, because the format has been in dire need for reinvention for a long time. Consider that the New York Times dedicated an ENTIRE article to the "news" that Meyers will no do his monologues sitting. US late night is ridiculous. It's going to be interesting to see how well Colbert manages to stand out. I don't really have any expectations for his show, but we know he's talented and knows his improv.
