Just putting this here in case anyone has anything to say about this show, ever.

I like Grown Up Annie and Stink Mouth Pigman as characters. Hmm. His monologues are alright.

She totally is. St. Vincent's playing with them this week, too.

This show is getting better, I think. But the 8G Band are boring as hell.

I swear this show is getting better. Here's an article:

At the very least he's not another ass-kissing nice guy like Fallon or Corden.

Nikki5 is not alone. Meyers, who never planned on playing the viral game, has seen his YouTube subscribers jump by 53 percent over the last six months, with views exceeding 36 million a month — up 143 percent since May — as reported by The Wall Street Journal. (This is in addition to more than 1.5 million people who watch the show when it airs.) Though they didn’t introduce the segment until almost 20 months after the show launched, Meyers and his team have turned A Closer Look into their biggest asset and, in turn, transformed Late Night into essential nightly viewing for political comedy.As I learned while spending that Monday in Late Night’s eighth-floor, 30 Rock office, the piece was conceptualized less than 24 hours earlier, in a half-office in the South Slope, Brooklyn, one-bedroom apartment of Late Night writer Sal Gentile. Looking at how it came together provides a case study of how Meyers and his team have refined a distinct point of view, but also how, on a daily basis, Meyers has become the most trusted political voice in late night.

i'm not sure i've ever thought or said this before, but...GO SETH MEYERS
i watched the segment in the article (just after the pence/hamilton hubbub) and it's actually pretty good, and sorely needed. especially in the wastelands of late night network television.
still, i feel like this is colbert's natural turf. i haven't tuned into his show since the first week or two (i haven't tuned into Meyers since the very first time they cut to Fred Armisen's band), but as good as A Closer Look might be, it still doesn't measure up to an average Colbert show segment.

Myers is really, really good at that segment and it's really given his show the personality it was lacking before, when it was just an affable dude chatting with famous people and making fun of how painfully vanilla his life is.

This easily the funniest thing I’ve ever seen on Seth Meyers...and one of the funniest things I’ve seen on any late-night talk show:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exPAh0wAqA8

The 8G Band will be playing its last tunes on Late Night With Seth Meyers this summer.
NBC-imposed budget cuts to the show mean that the house band — keyboard player Eli Janney, guitarist Seth Jabour and bassist Syd Butler — will be going away when Late Night begins its new season in the fall. The trio have been part of the show since its debut in 2014; Fred Armisen was the bandleader for much of that time but has been more of a guest performer in the past few years.
