    I don’t agree with Colbert on everything, and can’t say I’ve watched him enough or read enough about him to know if I should or would like him a lot, but he’s way above the other two in that thumbnail. I fucking hate Jimmy Fallon and don’t think I’ve ever seen anything from the third guy, don’t even know his name.

      I started out thinking Seth Myers was bargain basement Colbert, but I’ve come to really appreciate much of his monologues. Give him a chance. And Day Drinking with Seth is fantastic.

        Seth is an AMAZING interviewer. You watch him with guests and see that he’s genuinely interested and makes them comfortable

        Which is owned by Larry Ellison and his son. Larry Ellison is well known asshole Sociopathic Oligarch. Him taking over Paramount is the equivalent of The Goblin taking over Twitter. It will now become just another MAGA mouthpiece for the Conservative Propaganda Machine.

      I’m not a Fallon fan either but the third guy is Seth Myers and he and his team are great imo. He took over for Conan on NBC’s Late Night. I think he used to host Weekend Update on SNL and did a good amount of writing for the show.

        He was the head writer as well as cohost of Weekend Update along with Amy Pohler.

        He’s also got a fucking stellar podcast with the Lonely Island fellas where they talk about the digital shorts and episodes they were on together.
