Not much for news today, possibly because we’re winding down for summer. Oh well. Late Nighters Seth Meyers: Jimmy Kimmel: Jimmy Fallon: The Daily Show: It’s all celebrity interviews this morning, so in honor of the World Cup, I thought I’d share this, since the audience here is mostly USA residents. This content has not…

Ugh! Let’s get going. Late Nighter British TV Pulls This Week’s Last Week Tonight Episode First on LateNighter: UK viewers tuning in Monday night hoping to catch this week’s Last Week Tonight with John Oliver are in for a disappointment: The episode will not air after it was pulled from Sky One’s schedule at the…

Well, I’m going to stretch this one out a little. There’s really only John Oliver this morning, which isn’t a surprise. There’s a bit of news, which I’ve gotten fairly good at finding before hand and I found a vintage clip I want to use. I am sure that I found it via another Daily…

Well, what have we this morning? I’m trying to get a little legwork in on Thursday evening. I’m in central time. Seth Meyers often drops things after 5:00 AM my time and I impose a publishing time for myself at 6:00 AM. These news items were readily available, so I’m putting them in tonight. I…

Good morning! There’s not much that I’ve found for late night news. On the flipside, I don’t remember seeing this much press coverage of late night in the main stream media before. I think Kimmel being removed last summer and Colbert being cancelled have touched off a wave of appreciation for it. I’ll quote myself…

` We (Twin Cities) had a storm last night unlike anything I’ve ever seen. There was so much lightening, you could practically read a book by it. I haven’t had a chance to look for any damage yet, either personally or in the news. I hope everyone was safe, but I somehow think that’s not…

I haven’t found any late nighter news to speak of. It was only a brief search, but AFAICS, there’s nothing there. I still mourn the loss of Colbert’s show. He brought the palate cleanser, had a reliably good monologue and often had a very good interview. It’s leaving quite a hole for me in these…

There is not much to be had for late nighters right now, but I absolutely LOVE John Oliver and he’s probably going to take the summer off soon, so enjoy it while you can. Late Nighter John Oliver Prevails in Defamation Suit Over Last Week Tonight Medicaid Segment John Oliver and Last Week Tonight have…

I’m going to put up the last three SNL UK cold opens and hopefully give myself some more time off through the rest of the summer doldrums, which I’m surprised haven’t hit yet for the regular US crew. I don’t expect to highlight SNL UK’s Weekend Update sections because the one I’ve watched was not…

Usually I get Saturday morning’s off, since there’s no content on Friday nights. I wanted to use Kimmel’s dalayed broadcast from last night before it got stale. I’ll do that in the main section. Until then, there’s this Late Nighter Colbert’s Only in Monroe Hosts Dish on Keeping ‘World’s Most Exciting Secret’ The biggest surprise…

This morning’s Late Night Roundup is kind of skimpy. There’s not much content to be found. Late Nighter Colbert’s Public Access Return a ‘Game Changer’ for Struggling Station Stephen Colbert’s post-Late Show return to Only in Monroe didn’t just give  Michelle Baumann and Kaye Lani Rae Rafko Wilson a memorable sendoff for their old set.…

Good morning, folks! Let’s start off with a concept I can completely get behind. Late Nighter Could Stephen Colbert Save PBS? Inside the Campaign Working to Make It Happen Stephen Colbert has only been off CBS for a week, but the internet is already drafting him for a new job: saving PBS. The pitch is…

Good morning, folks! In my on going effort to provide value in this series… Late Nighter CBS Says Byron Allen Gives It a $55M Late-Night Swing—The Math Is More Complicated I’ve seen Kimmel openly doubt that CBS’s -$40 million figure is accurate. Even taking that at face value, the article raises good reasons that See…

1BQ pointed out that I had a bad link in the first published version on the LNR (thanks, 1BQ!) yesterday. I fixed it later. The link I shared was for this story. Late Nighter Stephen Colbert Turns His Only in Monroe Return Into a Fundraiser The Late Show with Stephen Colbert may be over, but…

I’m tossing this in as part of my goal of adding value to this series during the quiet times. The Guardian Stephen Colbert’s Late Show replacement is a depressing sign of the times Andrew Lawrence The applause, dear God, the applause. It has you bracing against the headboard and groping for the remote when Comics…

I didn’t expect to find anything at all, so this is a surprise to me. I hope it’s a pleasant one for you. Fallon may have done a Friday night show, which is unheard of in my experience. He also had this, which I haven’t watched, but appears to be unusually political for him. Ronnie…

This has the potential to be a really short roundup. Seth Meyers has been off all week, the Jimmies (Kimmel and Fallon) took last night off to drive the audience to Colbert. So we have Colbert and The Daily Show. Have I Got News for You has not been putting up truly new content for…

Day three of Colbert week. Tonight’s the big send off. I’ll be gone and I don’t have a way to get broadcast TV (cable or an antennae) anyway, so we’ll all learn what YouTube has in store for us in the morning, together. I think of it as a bonding experience. LateNighters First, a little…

This is day two of Colbert week. Seth Meyers is out again, probably for the week, possibly for the summer. I’m pleased to see that other than that we have a fairly full slate of late nighters. Let’s get going! Late nighters. First, a little palate cleanser from the Colbert crew Seth Meyers appears to…
