Great monologue! Haven't watched Steve in a while, but good to see him! 
As has his family, LOL. He's said that his daughter does his makeup, his wife is in charge of props and his son operates the camera - and of course his dog makes expected and unexpected appearances too! 
And musician and friend Jon Batiste still makes daily appearances even though he's quarantining too - yesterday was Stephen's birthday and they all were on hand to celebrate with a cake and special banner! As long as they still have the humorous Openings, I think we could all get used to seeing the show this way!
