(204,695 posts)That's actually why I started posting the late night guys a few years back - since I figured that we could use the humor here. But now we really need all the humor we can get, so I'm grateful that they all have made what has to be a huge effort to resume original programming - and I get the impression that they're feeling as stir crazy as we are.

(204,695 posts)I've wondered if each one of them has issues with alcohol. Jimmy Fallon is always having guests on who make drinks for him, Colbert is always offering alcoholic drinks to guests and Seth Meyers has this segment he calls "day drinking" in which he wanders around to bars with some guest that I absolutely can't stand to watch!

(204,695 posts)The Opening (which wasn't available till later) was spot on as usual - and his guest was John Oliver (also broadcasting from home) and it doesn't get better than that!
