Late Night with Seth Meyers

I can't believe Seth didn't take the opportunity to call him "Mike Prance" during that clip of Pence clap-running
Good one James!
Good one sir!!! 😂😂😂😂
hence and TRUMP are in better physical condition @ their ages now than Burnme Slanders ever was AND SLOW Drunken Joe Biteme was when the beady-eyed Lying Leftists was @ thirty esp when Joe was ilkegalky draft-dodging the war that Irish drunk Kennedy got America into AND Joe was cheating on college exams..!
Omg!!
This needs 1000 more likes! And Seths attention need to be drawn to this comment immediately.
Seth does my favorite Tucker Carlson impression. He just has his cadence down perfectly.
Are you saying that others do impressions of Fucker? Like who?
Totally!
And Lindsay Graham.
Oh, it is sheer perfection. But his Bernie Sanders is also incredibly dead-on hilarious. His Pence has become eerily, creepily good. Seth is an absolute master.
I love it when Seth gets so into his bits that he cracks himself up.
I love how he's the only one actually laughing without a sign telling them to.
@@jeremybenoit759 probably wouldn’t have a job this long if he wasn’t the only one laughing 😅😂
That’s because he didn’t write the script the shows writers did. And they are the best
I live for Seth's impression of Tucker Carlson.
It is a national - nay, a global - treasure.
What's scarier than documents? Santos passing a security check and being placed on committees.
Well, he *said* he passed a security check...
I believe Congress is not required to pass a check, probably something about voting being vetting.
Most frightening: Santos placed on committees! Placed on committees!!!
What committee? Who said he's on any committee. He is going to be in front of a committee. Big difference.
Ikr, I’d like to see that form, assuming he was honest on it. He’d probably need an extra sheet for the “List any previous names you’ve used,” question.
Can we just appreciate how many spot on impressions Seth did in this Closer Look?!!!
SethBETH's impersonations suck just like newage sex pervert Leftism....figuratively SND literally..!!
All that time at impressions camp is really paying off!
That Sanders was top shelf!!😋
Came here to say this! Amazing job Seth.
Bars. Spittin bars of comedic impressions👏🏽
Thank you, Seth and staff, for nailing these bastards 3 times a week, and making me laugh out loud at the same time---A Closer Look is my favorite form of stress relief!
PS: Please feel free to show that clip of Pence running as often as you like---it's already right up there in the Hall of Fame with clips like Trump abandoning his open umbrella at the entrance to Air Force One, or the Rudy Sitting On His Own Testicles reaction shot.
And to be fair - as Seth always is - the video of Biden tripping up the stairs.
@@margaretjames6494 I cant stand trump but omg Biden falling up the stairs is funny. And nowadays humor is required in order to survive.
@@margaretjames6494 Obviously I'm not impartial, but are the Biden and Trump clips really in the same league? One is an old man tripping on some steps; the other is a bloated, ignorant spoiled brat who's lived a life so sheltered and free from consequences that he either he can't be bothered to fold his own umbrella, or is actually incapable of doing so. 👶
I also enjoy all the Late Night clips that depict Trump's inability to simply stand still in a normal manner. 🦧
@@Daberney Of course they're not in the same league. This is why we get one video of Biden screwing up that's show over and over vs thousands of videos of Trump doing or saying something stupid and/or wrong. The contrast is perfect.
Thanks for always making me laugh. Bravo to you and your writing staff.
What are the top 3 things Ted Cruz lacks? Shame. Integrity. A spine.
@Pete Jams: He really needs to add his beard to that list. He looks awful with that fuckin rats nest.
The lack of a spine is quite helpful for flip-flopping when the wind changes.
This man can't even defend his wifes honor. Donald Trump called his wife ugly. If that were me, we'd be brawling. I doubt Donald can fight, so it would be all me
Brains, morals, ❤ of his children
I doubt he has a mirror in his house.
I like how Ted Cruz dismissed findings at Mar-a-Lago and Pence's place as fishing expeditions and then called for a fishing expedition at Hunter Biden's home.
Yes, because Ted Cruz is a reptile. Thats what you were talking about, right?
Yep - logic and consistency have NO place in his mind
He should have included Ivanka and Jarrod, they actually "worked?" in the WH with 45
Yep. The GOP wanted to permanently dismantle the FBI.......now they are demanding that same FBI investigate Biden before they execute him.
Well, he is _Turd_ Cruz.
The Bernie impersonations get me every time. 😂
Thanks Seth & Late Night crew for the laughs and exposing the utter bull&#!+ The gop is all about.
"He's a good friend and a good man." That is not a defense against criminal charges.
More importantly being a "good friend" to cruz and being judged as a "good man" most assuredly means you're guilty of something
Yeah, his friend said he didn’t do it so, it must be true🤦🏽♀️
@@kiriuxeosa8716 Did you see how Gram wiped his eye? He is hiding something or just might be true.
Hypocrisy is a feature, not a bug. Nobody on the right cares. How do we even get past that?
We don’t get past it, the damage is done
They're not playing by the same rules.
Although, they expect the left to abide by them.
Spoiled children in suits, the lot of them.
Metallica’s first album…
Innuendo studios altright playbook
When most republicans are sociopaths you don’t get passed it! Nothing they say or do can be trusted or believed!
Thanks for this "Closer Look!" It was well done and made me laugh alot. Keep up the GREAT work, Seth!
The segment is as usual, amazing. But the last 4 minutes are truly hilarious 👏👏👏
Just got my ticket to see Seth live in February. This jackal is excited.
Congratulations
Oh, you're going to a taping. I thought maybe he'd decided to do a stand up. 😂
This segment had me guffawing. . .literally. Seth and the entire staff have my appreciation. I suspect that was the plan. . . 😂
Man I love when Seth does his impressions and call backs to the Biden and Pence clips. I seriously almost spit my coffee out laughing in the morning. ❤
Seth's Tucker Carlson impression is the best thing on late night TV
SO true!!
Alec Baldwin playing trump was hilarious!
Yes Lindsey Graham, please remind us all how you're still unmarried, childless and living like a college student at age 67
Don’t forget how greasy that fool is, too! You could fry chicken cutlets on top his head!! Damn…! 13:51
AND SUPPORTS CHIC-FIL-A by throwing the wrapper on his floor!!!! And don't think for a minute that he isn't aware of their anti-gay stance! How ironic!!! LOL
only time he has a chick is Chick Fil A. what a creepy psycho.
💀💀💀
@@thekaren1111 not a thing. It's homophobia. The guy's a jerk, but I'm not down with mocking gays or lesbians or any people who decide to be child-free
Wow Seth! You really nailed it with impressions this time! Loved it!
Your Tucker Carlson & Bernie Sanders impressions are legit, you crack me up Seth.
Seth's parody of Tucker Carlson is so accurate. Same as his Bernie and Pence impressions. SO good
His name is Tucker. TUCKER. So before you know anything about this person you already kind of hate the guy but feel bad for him because he no doubt got his butt kicked daily growing up. Then you hear him speak and immediately understand why your first reaction would be to beat this guy up. Add to that a face that somehow is just begging to be punched that all you want to do is oblige over, and over, and over again. I think I’m adding “punch Tucker Carlson in the face” to my bucket list.
Impression Camp is paying off!
Yeah, any time I see that Tucker over Seth’s shoulder I know I’m going to get a good laugh.
When SethBETH Crying LIAR Meyer picks his BIG BOOGER fully fugly nose, does he/she have to take time-off..?
@@user-wg5dm6oc3t you are kidding, right? 😀
Literally the only good thing about Tucker Carlson is Seth Meyers’s hilarious impression of him.
Seth's extended Tucker impressions are criminally underrated.
Except that Seth sounds like an actual man, not some emasculated pee wee.
Go watch Jon Stewart destroy Tucker. He got his show canceled.
I miss Stewart.
TUCKER , IS THERE ANYBODY IN THERE ? SOME FORM OF INTELLIGENT LIFE ?
@@Facetiously.Esoteric , He has a yt channel. v
First time I’ve heard his pence impression.. it’s GOLD!!
Great show! Your impression of Bernie Saunders was surprisingly accurate tonight! I forced me to give a quick re-focus to see if it was dubbed recording of Bernie.
Seth’s Bernie Sanders, Tucker, Mike Lindell and Owen Wilson impressions are spot-on 😂
I thought his Bernie Sanders was showing traces of George Constanza.
his Pence is really damn good too.
We got all the best impersonations tonight! Thank you Seth!
Except for the pillow guy.
Buddy Buddy Buddy
With respect, I still think his Bernie Sanders is the best. I love the way he has to torque up his shoulders to get into finger-pointing mode. I think he loves Bernie ( me, too), but he just nails that pedantic lecturing style.
Seth gets better every time out!
"And we suspect it was.." that put me over the top. I went from a constant giggle while watching the video, to an literal LOL 😆
One of my first grade students recently tried to convince me that he had completed 2 of his reading center activities, but another student took them from his folder and put their unfinished work in his folder. Now he is trying to remember to put his name on his papers so that doesn't happen again and he has to do it twice. Some of this thinking starts very young. 😅😒
I am surprised that Ted Cruz can stand without a spine.
Turds don't stand, they... Sprawl.
The Tucker impression is always 👌
It's always so on point 😅 scary accurate!
Seth needs to do it to his face 🤣
The extended rants are such a brilliant deconstruction of Tucker's disingenuous and rebarbative asininity
Tucker, born an asshole, just grew up 😏
Chef's kiss!
The hardest I’ve laughed at a closer look in a long time. Great jo.
I think Seth's imitation of Tucker Carlson is my favourite.
I hate hearing Tucker Carlson speak… unless Seth is going to mock him immediately after. In that case, I love it.
So do I 😂😂
Yup that irritating voice and mealy mouth expression
I despise Tucker Carlson like no other.
Lots of Americans watch Tucker, listening to his ridiculous voice, watching his ridiculous facial expressions, hear his ridiculous conspiracy theories, and think "Yeah this guy really knows his stuff". Draw your own conclusion.
@@johnwick1883 I fear I would end up in jail if I ever crossed paths with Tucker. His face just screams "hit me".
Ah, Seth Meyers and American politics. The gift that keeps on giving.Thank you❤
Well, Seth is the gift that keeps on giving; American politics is the poison that keeps on destroying.
The Mike Pence impression was on point!
My sides hurt from this hilarious segment!!!❤️🔥
😂🤣😂
Matt Gaetz should just be persona non grata everywhere please.
Nothing does my heart good than when I see there’s a new Closer Look 😊
who is doing the looking.. cant trust just anyone..cnn..hell no..msnbc..hell no..clowns that has segments ..hell no
This is me every Friday with Corrections.
I love Seth's Bernie impression sitting on the cusp of devolving into a Donald Duck impression
My thoughts exactly
Great Job Seth and Friends!
the clapping over the white house. i screamed
Seth does a great Tucker! 🤣😂😅🤣😂😅
His is the BEST😂HANDS DOWN😁 it’s all that camp👍
Seth’s monologue is always the best part of my day. Thanks for keeping us sane due these insane times.
This isn't the monologue, it's "A Closer Look" - This has been a comment section correction
100%
So true I live for these moments
In the tradition of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, the sanest, most accurate news in America takes place on late night comedy . Quite a drop from the halcyon days of Walter Cronkite.
@@wayne4050 Walter Cronkite lied to everyone, too.
Watch the 1942 USDA film, *Hemp for VIctory.*
If you want to change the world so that everything isn't so hypocritical and insane, make *Hemp for Victory* finally go viral and end the war on drugs.
The BERNIE SANDERS IMPRESSION! It’s so good, Seth! 😂
The best Mike Pence impression I've ever heard!
Always best part of my nightly routine! Thanks Seth!
I do this too!
My morning, this momma can’t stay up that late!
I saw the title "Ted Cruz’s Hypocrisy" and I couldn't believe that a key leader in the GOP has a standard that they want to hold the democrats up to, but not the GOP... I could have never guessed that Ted Cruz was a hypocrite (Note: Its really hard to show sarcasm via comment)
i hope you understand this.. 4 years of fake impeachments.. fake russia.. fake ukraine..fake this and fake that .. telling lies just to smear ..finger pointing.. playing the blame games..1000 crimes accused of trump ..6 years and the dems has not proved 1 fucking crime.. wer not playing games now.,.
Don't worry; we all understood it was sarcasm without a doubt by the time the final sentence concluded.
😁
Use /s!
While the sarcasm is pretty obvious to most, some people - such as those who are neurodivergent - don't pick up on it so easily, so it's good of you to point it out.
I love when Seth breaks over the bits. So damn funny. Clapping Mike Pence is ridiculous and hilarious.
Netflix: "Are you still watching?"
Me & my girl: 8:30
It's amazing how those dipsticks on Fox news can contort themselves for absolutely any situation.
If you saw how much money they make to lie you'd understand
Seth's Bernie Sanders impression is priceless ! Such a funny show !
WORD!!!
This ACL segment was particularly excellent-so many of my favorite bits, done well & combined deliciously.
Thank you so much to do this comparison. If only logic worked on these type of folks. 🤦🏾♀️
The "looter at Best Buy during a black out" joke was chef's kiss. I can absolutely see Trump moving out in a panic. Also, imagining Wally shuffling cue cards during the Tucker impersonation had me 😂
So the same guy who was caught tearing up and flushing memos is all of a sudden keeping empty classified folders? lol 😂
I barking love this show so much, the Mike Pence clapping bit was hilarious and Seth lost it for a second. Sooooo funny!!
Mike?... Mike?... are you clapping? ..... i died from laughing , tell my family i love them
If you're still calling Trump President....you automatically lose the right to be taken seriously.
He'll ALWAYS be the former guy. v
All former presidents are still called president even after they leave office. However i would agree that if you, after 4 years of Trump, want him to be president again, then you do automatically lose the right to be taken seriously.
I thought there’s a clause in the 🇺🇸 Constitution against the use of honorific titles.
@ Wayne T YOU are such an intelligent Leftist, do YOU have a Leftist mangina too..?
@@douglasknoll3500 and you ARE SUCH A MAGA!!! Nothing else needs to be added because we understand your loss of reality and empathy!!!
Seth does Tucker Carlson’s squealing cadence and insane patter PERFECTLY.
Impressions camp!
The Pence /Trump back and forth was great! 😂 waiting for that movie reboot.
Lol lol lol! 😂Great writers on this show!
Lindsay Graham living off Chik fil A is so perfect. They’re like the official food of homophobia.
Lady Lyndsey and fried chicken go together like peas and carrots.
And admitting that he hoards Chick- fil-A bags on the floor!
Seriously? Conflating chicken with homophobia? Kinda stuck on a really minor news story of years ago, aren't you?
@@scottdoesntmatter4409 not an old story. There’s a reason you don’t find them in some cities. We don’t want them in our communities. Ditto Hobby Lobby.
@@yeuxdal Ah, cancel culture. May it go the way of the dodo. Frankly, I am tired of the extreme tribalism.
Seth Meyers is getting better and better every time he does a Closer Look. This is a great show. Keep up the great work, Seth.
SethMcBETH is going to do a segment called "a closer look
@ SethBETH in the closet w/HIS/HER BIG Bent Crooked Hooked Honked Schnauzola..!
Yea he’s really fixing all the problems with America
@@Neilleeds Yoda says William is not listening. I don’t think that is quite true. ‘Very funny’. That is not true either Yoda. Yoda is outside if you want to come listen.
@@SirBlot bot says what ?
@@Neilleeds Yoda are just in the birds outside my house telling multi dimensional jokes looking out my senses. My alias is a backgammon term that I recently realised sounded wicked. I am probably what the Egyptians and many others listened to throughout time as it goes backwards. slim shady etc etc. I was not aware. I don’t listen to Yoda much, I plan to after more screen time. ‘Yoga is really funny’ ‘Yoda is not evil’ see it does not give much away at this stage. ‘More telly’. Now u know what is probably encrypted in the docs or some such. It is my b’day today btw. 420 tell Tay Tay, she will be happy.
Soooo good. Especially when Last Week Tonight is still on hiatus. This is the next best deep dive 😜😂❤️
OMFG THE CLAPPING! 👏 😂😂😂
Even for our boy Tucker, that’s a real 0-to-100 thought process. I mean, I once had a friend ask me to check on their house while they were out of town simply because-and hear me out here-he just wanted to make sure he didn’t forget anything. That’s it.
I like this story
I could totally see Corden doing that.
#TeamSeth
I check the thumbs up before i watch because the laughter is guaranteed. Thats how much i trust a Closer Look to bring the funny. That Bernie Sanders made me choke on my chicken tickler I was eating for lunch. 😆
Seth, you’ve become one of my favorite sources of effective sarcasm.
Seth, I can't get enough of you imitating Tucker!!!!!
Kudos to the writers and to Seth's delivery. This was a banger! 🤣🤣🤣
When did that happen?
The fact that people defend the indefensible, is a big reason that some don’t trust the justice department
Clapping and packing would be an impressive ability in of itself!
Every time I see a clip from Tucker Carlson, it 100% looks like something you would see in a dystopian movie. It’s hard to believe that his show is real and not some overblown farce to incorporate situational irony into a film plot.
Yeah, I always figure him start talking about Emanuel Goldstein
@Bønzëaux Błëuxgrēn are you a child? Incorporate is not an uncommon word. You know how a million businesses end in "INC."? Guess what that stands for?
Carlson has the constant expression of German shepherd that badly needs to go potty but there's no on to open the door for him.
I think Seth was playing off that with the face off thing maybee. It just works so dang well, wow
Fun fact: the judicial system thinks so too, and that was Fox's main defense when they were sued for disinformation: that nobody in their right mind would mistake Tucker's crazy diatribes as statements of fact.
I live for the Tucker impressions and the spiraling down into crazy town. My all time favorite bit! 😂❤
“Collapse of trust is a cascade too” - David Wallis-Wells, this is just another tipping point. When humans can’t trust anything they don’t even trust themselves and that’s when sht gets scary
I'm from across the pond, and as well as the usual dose of helpless laughter, I am gaining useful understanding of baseball references- I think.
But they also said a sitting president could pardon himself. So whatever crimes (if any) Joe could just pardon himself.
He could declassify them for himself.
I’m still wondering why Biden didn’t just overturn the results of the 2016 election, since according to Trump, the Vice President has the power to do that.
/s
funny thing is how repus seem to forget EVERYTHING
they attack hunterhunterhunter
while jarvanka got "trøn-security-clearance" and
$2 saudi billion ...
i still wonder how binsalmi knew all of the friends of the usa in the country usurped by the saud family
I think that only applies to Republicans.
Of course you can always expect smartest moronic statement from Cruz everytime
Cruz graduated at the top of his class in law @ Harvard unlike Joe SLOW Biteme and Bunted Runt Kunt Hunter Drugged AND Drunk Stump Runt Hunter..!
The blobfishes on the ocean floor recoil in shame every time he opens his mouth.
At least he can talk, unlike the Chinese prostitute you have in the oval office, who is about to get us in a nuclear war with Russia.
Ted Cruz, if assholes could talk!
@ Rich..! When whom opens...? SethBETH Lying SlimBag Meyers..?
Great impression, Seth; impressions camp paid off 😆
"Mike are you clapping? I just wanna make sure" lmfao
The whole bit about Mike Pence 'clapping' from the White House had me dying!!
why do i just want to keep screaming " WHATS IN THE BOX?!"
and when Obama got on the chopper leaving the WH, they asked where to? he said "far away from here".
Bernie Sanders impression is great lol
I absolutely love Seth, I actually laugh out loud while watching!!!!!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣 it’s actually more of a cackle! Hands down my favorite!
Never funny 🤔
@@carolw8579 Then why are you watching him?!?!?! If you are one of the jackals just say that! 😂
Seth just said the funniest Mike Pence joke (the clapping one) and the audience didn't appreciate it as I would've expected
The fact that he was trying to simultaneously slip in and also hide a Mike Pence sex joke is hilarious 😂
@@CashSage3 that's the part I'm talking about. I don't know if people understood the double meaning of it 🤣
@@alexcontreras1972 I agree! I think a lot of people missed it 😂
@@CashSage3 Gosh, I'm so glad I wasn't the only one reading that into that joke. I was like: "That clapping sound reminds me of something else..."
Was looking for this comment. Seth could barely hold it together not sure he'd heard the soundeffect before, he looked surprised and delighted, lol.
I love it when Seth is having so much fun!
Your Clucker Carlson impersonation is spot on! A++
Impressions were on fire tonight. 👍👍
they are all a bunch of crooks
How much of the monologue do you personally write (or is it a mostly collaborative endeavor)? You and Colbert have the funniest monologues!
The way they talk about these boxes 😂
I think Seth should do a show in which he hasn't seen any of the jokes until he delivers them.... and then try to guess who wrote it. I would love to see his raw reactions
That'd be the episode where the writing room absolutely planned for revenge. It'd go viral.
You JACKALS! That's a good idea...
Correction Mars already had a gray M&M, called the "Impostor M&M" as part of a promotion in 1997. If you found the gray one you won a million dollars.
You're early for corrections you observant jackal you. 🤣...v
Did they now? How do we know if no one has ever seen one in person.... sounds suss
@@lighthouse_23_ I get your point, but we believe that air exists and yet we can't see that either.
Oh, my fellow jackal... why do I feel like we're gonna see Seth eating grey M&Ms in a future episode... "Tell the Prop Department! I need them painting M&Ms, stat!"
I remember that.
Thank you, Seth. Good job!
Thank you for this! 👍
The only real conclusion after all this is that you really need to improve the white house library security. Maybe write down if you take something and put a punishment on not bringing it back within 4 weeks.
By this point I wouldn't be surprised if every single politician has calcified documents in their house
not just American politicians --- FBI should raid Putin's place too.
Good stuff.
Also, did you mean to say "calcified" documents?
If not, I want to borrow that term for an article about the
Senate!
@@MrBsbotto calcified, hehe. I originally read it as 'classified' and would have missed a gigglem
It seems the average public library has a better document management system than the White House.
If we had a House of Representatives that functioned, they would be creating a committee to investigate this and find out what the problem is, so they could create a law to fix it. But our House doesn't function, and it's unlikely that they'll fix it.
