      Also, the last strike gave us the tidal wave of TLC style “reality” shows and formulaic “talent” shows. And heaven knows we don’t need more of those.

      Conan was good at it too. A lot of his writers would be the zany characters in the skits he did, and when he left NBC to go to TBS he brought i think all his staff and crew that wanted to make the move with him. Being a former writer himself, im sure he understood how much of the program utterly depended on them working hard.

      Yeah there's no real concern over the Russia Ukraine war. What could go wrong? And there's Just a itsy bitsy tad of inflation and high interest rates. And the country being so divided isnt a worry. The opposition are nice people who arentl blindly partisan and obtuse. And we either cant have an abortion or even the gays are seething for more abortion rights. Even though straights and ironically, Christian straits, are gays main source of population. And if we could keep calling everyone racist or other labels, thats nothing to be alarmed about. When you want your way call everyone a murderer or cry victim. And all the endless charges against Trump and none against the Bidens is really going to satisfy everyone that the govt isnt tilted to one side. You only think that whn youre losing, right? But not if you win. And we can always count on bi partisan support for military endeavors. Economic recessions and downturns are just normal now. Why worry? For 60 years plus Democrats have been the figurehead of blk politics and have rendered them to a paltry and stagnant population rate of only 14 percent. Nothing alarming about that. Its always been that way....

    Someone on social media asked "why don't the late nite shows just have the host interview the guests and stay on the air that way"
    and in this I had to support that it takes writers, talking with the guest, to work out the questions that the host prompts in order to keep the interview alive.
    yeah, it doesn't take that when Seth and Amy Poehler meet, given their long friendship and professional association.
    but without that? all the interviews quickly degenerate into Chris Farley's "you remember that one time that you did this one thing? That was awesome!".
    Not every guest has Paul McCartney's patience.
    Interviews still need writers. I stand with WGA.

    I know I'm late to the party, but A Closer Look has been my favorite late night comedy segment across all shows. I admittedly stopped finding it very funny over time, but that changed nothing. This show was very informative, and in many ways often said what I thought on things better than I could say it myself. Remembering this show always reminds me of the writer's strike honestly hurt to hear, because the writers of this show are brilliant, as is Seth for fully supporting them.
    Every so often, I rewatch this episode, explicitly to hear Seth's speech at the end. I saw an interview of one of the writers on the strike while searching for updates on Google, and it cemented just how they felt about Seth. They knew he would say something at the end of the episode, but they didn't know what, and when they heard it, they got emotional about it. Bravo, Seth! I hope you keep advocating for the writers' union until the strike ends, and above all, I hope the union wins!
