Seth Meyers, late night's "Mr. Nice Guy"

The "Saturday Night Live" alum who has hosted "Late Night with Seth Meyers" since 2014 talks with correspondent Rita Braver about leaving his COVID-lockdown attic and returning to the TV studio, and about whether his sunny reputation hides a dark side. (Spoiler alert: it doesn't!)

    Seth is a delight. He seemed uncomfortable that Rita spilled the beans on his generosity to his staff. He just wanted to do something nice without taking credit. Love him.

    I do like the way that Seth (as Rita mentions toward the end) likes to bring the writers into the light, if not on camera then at least talking about their work, and crediting them. Whenever a guest's conversation turns to an SNL sketch, Seth will always mention who wrote it.

    It's a nice profile, though it's a little disheartening to see criticism of a malignant narcissist with authoritarian leanings classified as "being political," as though there's a legitimate "other side" to the Trump phenomenon. Seth doesn't criticize the disgraced former president because Seth is liberal, or a Democrat, or "political." He does so because he's an empathetic human being who doesn't want to see the democratic system, and many lives, sacrificed at the altar of one man's ego. It is the only sensible position to take.

    Anyone else amused by CBS doing this interview, since they’re literally his competition with Corden? Speaks to how chill both he and the show are about the late night situation.

    Interesting the interviewer raised the subject. White hats must be in control for it to be discussed.

    Why are they so far apart in their socially distanced sit down interview but right next to each other in their walk & talk? I'm confused.
