The Resume

    (February 24, 2014- )
    Late night talk/variety show
    Originally aired on NBC
    Hosted by Seth Meyers
    Music provided by The 8G Band with Fred Armisen
    Recurring segments include 'A Closer Look,' 'Fake or Florida,' 'Game of Jones,' 'Jokes Seth Can't Tell,' and 'Really?!'

Why Late Night with Seth Meyers might be annoying:

    This feels like an hour-long version of Weekend Update from 'Saturday Night Live.'
    It also feels like another clone of 'The Daily Show.'
    The Hollywood Reporter's Tim Goodman referred to Meyers' monologue as 'staccato and hit and miss—sounding more like his 'Weekend Update' bits rather than a real monologue.'
    Meyers went from performing his monologue standing up on stage to sitting behind his desk (a la Weekend Update) after a little over a year on the air.
    One recurring segment involved one of his staffers ending her comments with 'I was like, what' with an exaggerated emphasis on the word 'what.'
    The ratings often lagged behind 'The Late Late Show with James Corden' and 'Nightline.'

Why Late Night with Seth Meyers might not be annoying:

    The program's house band features members of indie bands Girls Against Boys and Les Savy Fav.
    Critics noted that Meyer's performance has improved especially during and after the 2016 US presidential election.
    A live episode featuring guest and fellow 'SNL' castmate Leslie Jones had them swearing with several of their words uncensored.
    In several episodes when his former 'Weekend Update' co-anchor Amy Poehler is a guest, she and Meyers reprise their famous 'Really?' segment.
    His desk always features a different mug from an NBC affiliate.
    One could see this show as a perfect complement to 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' and ' Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.'
