I never understood why 'late night shows' are a thing in American culture
They look awful. So fake and plastic.
Just an eerie, uncanny valley quality to them.
As well as the fact that they're never funny and there's so much fake laughter. What's the point?
Sterile. That's another word I was looking for. So sterile.

As a Brit I want an answer as to why you guys like to take some of the worst people from our country and make them famous
Literally nobody here knows who John Oliver is. Seriously.
Piers Morgan is known entirely for being an unlikeable cunt. The man's a punchline.
James Corden's not that famous at all here, he's known for playing the dimwitted fat guy in a few things, and he played Paul Potts in a movie nobody saw apart from me, since my fatfuck younger cousin played childhood Paul Potts and his actual screentime was slashed by 99%, and I ended up having to watch an entire fucking movie about a nobody Britain's Got Talent winner played by James fucking Corden because my obese cousin was approached in the street by a director who was amazed by his uncanny resemblance to a fat cunt opera singer on the basis that my cousin was a fucking fat fuck, and then he had all of his scenes taken out at the last minute apart a scene consisting of around ten seconds of running towards the camera.

Jimmy Fallon is obviously a closeted homosexual. That is obvious from space. Nicole Kidman tends to be attracted to closeted homosexuals. Actually, she married two of them. Tom Cruise and Jimmy Fallon are actually kind of alike also, but Jimmy is less aware of how his gayness comes across. Not that there is anything wrong with that, at all, you are born how you are born and to each his own, but I find it funny that Kidman would be so attracted to men who are so obviously gay. A guy who loves to dance, and sing, and prance around, and play little games, and puts his hands to his mouth when pretending to be embarrassed, and has giggle fits, and has to fakely praise everyone he talks to without causing friction, is gay. Jimmy is gay and he should be out in the open to help people like him but he is not, probably because it wouldn't do his career good. My uncle was just like Jimmy, he even acted just like him, and everyone knew he was a closeted homosexual like Jimmy, he committed suicide cause he couldn't come out due to shame. Jimmy has a responsibility to his fellow closeted homosexuals and their community to come out and end the shame.

It's because they're no longer counterculture. Leftists have become the dominant cultural institutions, whereas in the cold war it was conservatives who dominated it. What that means, is that they'll never be incisive, or edgy, or push boundaries, because they're all in favor of the status quo. They OWN media and popular culture, so how are they ever going to make cutting remarks about it?

It was a natural evolution from the variety show. Late night talk shows were great as they offered a commentary on current events and showed off all the great people in the world. With the emergence of the internet the late shows lost their monopoly; the world could comment on events with itself and meet with interesting people directly.
The internet has fucked up a lot of shit since its birth. We don't have world fairs anymore because of the internet and that makes me sad, because my parents and grandparents would talk about the times they went to them and they sounded amazing.

>the late night talk show format is inherently boring

words of truth

Carson wasn't even funny and his show was tedious. how many channels were there in those days anyway.

Comedy today also has to bring something that can compete with the infinite stream of stimulation offered by the internet, and to do that you need a level of writing that simply isn't achievable night after night.
>>
>Fallon

Pretends to laugh at his guest's stories, laughs at his own jokes, his show is basically him playing stupid games with celebrities

>Colbert

Nice selection of guests other than Hollywood actors/musicians, Kind of a boring host/boring interviews

>Kimmel

Low brow humor, but probably the most tolerable of the bunch

>Corden

His self deprecation is alright, otherwise it feels like he's trying too hard to be funny. DESU I don't really watch his show, but from what I've seen, his format of bringing all his guests out at once is weird

>Seth Myers

Feels like an extended episode of Weekend Update. His skits go on way longer than they should. He's like middle-of-the-road in terms of hosting. Not the worst, but certainly nowhere near the best either.

>Conan

IMO probably the best interviewer, but his skits are really hit or miss, usually fucking terrible. His show is at its best when he's not in the studio

>Craig

His unscripted banter is also hit or miss, really depending on the guest

Late night talk shows are infinitely better right now than they were when Leno and Letterman were in their heydays.

Fallon has gotten a lot better over the years. He's still terrible at monologues and his interviews are awful cause he just giggles like a little girl and tells the guest he loves them over and over. But his little sketches and games are great. He's at his best when he's doing impersonations and little SNL-esque skits, and you can tell they're trying to do more of that stuff.

Seth Myers is decent. I hate how he's never been able to shake the Weekend Update character though. He reads through every single joke he's still a news anchor, but at least he's actually a really good interviewer. Easily the best part of his show.

I've only seen Corden a handful of times, but it seems like he's either really fucking hilarious, or just god-awful cringe. The rap battle a couple weeks ago with Ross from friends and that fat Aussie girl was pretty hilarious.
