About

"A monologue show that became a news op-ed"

Seth Meyers took over NBC's post-Tonight Show slot in 2014, running the standard mix of monologue, celebrity guests, and sketches, but the show found its real identity in "A Closer Look," a seated, deep-dive rant on the day's political absurdities. It's less manic than its late-night rivals, more like a smart, exasperated friend walking you through the news. The celebrity interviews are pleasant but forgettable; the news segments are where the show actually has something to say and where most people end up watching clips.
