Seth Holds a Surprise Inspection of His Monologue Writers in January 2024 - Late Night with Seth Meyers
• Seth Holds a Surprise ...
Late Night with Seth Meyers
/ latenightseth
Scollins 100% earned his bread with that police academy joke.
His Uranus joke was actually the best of the bunch, too.
Scollins: too funny for network TV.
The m&m one was good too lmao
@@bellyjellybean248I'll be honest I was hoping they would've shown a picture of tucker carlson first as thats where my mind went to
@@imightbebiased9311 He knows how to harness the power of the dark side of Uranus.
Right after the cucumber joke I paused the video and said aloud to no one “show me that tank top, I know who’s fault this is”
Scollins was on FIRE in this Surprise Inspection. Seth should do one of these with all the writers present so the crowd can cheer each of them after hearing their bad jokes.
This was some funny stuff! Props to Matt and Scollins both.
But then how will they LEARN?!
Scollins is always on fire. His jokes are the best
Sooooo good the zucchini one...
Scollins '24!
The "They all had their cameras off." joke was excellent because it's true.
We demand more live attendance of the writers, so we can mess with Seth some more 😂
Best reply ever
Live attendance is for Corrections
We need the writers on stage so that the audience can shame them, or cheer them. It would also be fun to have the audience try to guess who wrote what. Scollins is totally obvious. A cucumber🥒???
Lot'of jackels in the audience today
I love when Seth gets antagonistic with the audience!
...Remember the joke!
I loved the "You all get what you deserve." 🤣🤣🤣
I love how everyone just collectively decided to embrace Matt, despite how terribly received his jokes were.
This just tells you how cowardly the audience is 😂 OR how they just like to pander 😂
@@moonkey537 We can separate the man from the (lack of) art.
@@qazzaqstan 😂
Hate on the joke, love the writer. Isn't that what a "good Christian" does?
and re: the peanut joke, I have a peanut allergy and thought that one was funny!
My theory: Matt is hot.
We need a Scollins Special. 30 mins of Scollins jokes as Seth holds the cue cards. Wally produces.
I'll donate to the GoFundMe
This idea would make for a great segment. Are you reading this, Seth?
@@innagottadavida8538hope he did! 🤞🤞
He has to wear the tank top, though. Or Seth has to!
@@robertdavezac Better yet, make it a contest and the loser has to wear the tank top.
Can always pick out the Scollins jokes! I’m so happy you keep using the tank top photo. May Mike never have sleeve money …
That freakin Scollins photo captures everything about his flavor of humor. His jokes were very easy to pick out during this Surprise Inspection.
@@RobertJohnson-bj5lk If the audience is shocked its usually a scollins joke
The audience trolling Seth really made this surprise inspection earn an A+ grade.
That peanut allergy was HILARIOUS! I carry 3 epi pens. I did indeed get them for peanuts lol
Handsome Matt running away after his Cottonelle joke really got me.
I can't believe I called this Surprise Inspection before it happened. Also, kudos to Matt for showing up. And Seth, you should have known the crowd was never gonna boo Hot Matt to his face.
I think Matt's the only one who has ever physically shown up and he has before like 2 or 3 times
Scollins never disappoints😂
I unapologetically loved almost all of these jokes.
I laughed at everything. Except the dried fruit joke. What was Matt thinking...
@@kungfumachinistI can’t lie…I lol’d at the apricot joke 😂! But I had eaten a couple like an hour ago haha so it was very relevant to my current sitch. 🙋🏼♀️
Actually that Scollins police joke was the best, and should've been used for the regular monologue.
If the reaction to Matt is any indication, I feel like if Scollins showed up for one, the audience would crowd surf him out of the studio while triumphantly chanting his name 😂
5:34 That audible "Gottem" is class.
Because Seth, we can simultaneously hate their jokes, but love your staff.
Also because, while we will groan in agony when some of the jokes bomb, our love for your writers is deep and enduring, because we appreciate that your writers are the reason why your monologues and _A Closer Look_ are the best in late night ❤
I think Seth’s is the only show where everyone knows the writers. I really don’t think another host gives props to them the way he does.
Ever heard of Conan o'bryan?
I insist Seth should let the audience guess who's is the writer after each joke. My Scollins sense is super accurate.
seth just interacts so naturally with the audience. i love it!!!!!
I see the applause as "We're amazed you're willing to show your face after that one. Good for you!
Seth is the funniest member of the show, along with everyone else on the show.
Yes but looks don't count for everything.
Honestly after watching a few of these, you know exactly when Scollins wrote some of these jokes 😂
The hero we deserve
I can usually tell when Ally or Karen's jokes come up too.
Love the airline epi peanuts joke!
Punny!! 😂
Corrections, Inspection and Closer Look - that basically is Late Night with Seth for me.
There are also some interviews, I'm told.
I love Jokes Seth Can't tell as well
@@charlie-obrien Hilariously, to @ellwee3709's point, I actually never watch the interviews either. I only come for those 3 segments LOL
@@rightsarentpolitical
That's cool.
Those 3 are a lock, but I also treat myself to anything with Amber Ruffin in it.
That police joke was great actually lol
Surprise Inspection and Corrections are AWESOME. My favorite segments!
Correction: "Corrections" is technically not a segment of the show, as it is released only online on UA-cam.
Can we have Scollins attend the next one :D
In the tank top!
Scollins has never had a bad joke. Even the ones that show up on these surprise inspections are good. Moreover, nowadays I can usually tell with about 90% accuracy when its one of his so kudos to Seth for giving his writers such a tremendous spotlight where we can get to know them better
The joke about all cops having their cameras off was brilliant.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate Ally Hord and Karen Chee for hardly ever showing up on Surprise Inspection? What better testament to their joke writing abilities is there?
I wonder if when the writers turn their jokes for the day, they put an asterisk next to the ones they KNOW aren't up to snuff.
Amber and Jen NEVER show up xD
Doesn’t it seem at least as likely that the white male writers are singled out for abuse because Seth realizes that a white male boss mocking his female writers (or black or hispanic or gay writers) won’t be received as well by the audience?
Doesn't it seem at least as likely that the male writers are singled out for abuse because Seth realizes that a male host mocking his female writers wouldn't play as well to his audience? It would seem like bullying. The "Scollins" role, for instance, could only be played by a white guy.
Ok but let me propose a thought experiment: let’s imagine that Karen - or better, Amber - had written the jokes that Scollins wrote. How would the audience react if Seth mocked them as frequently and mercilessly as he mocks Scollins?
@@petrify4814 Well, they do, just in another segment XD
I LOVE this crowd cheering to spite Seth. I would so be one of those people if I got to see the show in person 😄
4:30 A proper calendar, with the week starting on *Monday* - keep it up!
I know Seth is just playing to the crowd for more laughs and of course doesn't actually want anyone to boo the writers, but I'm also just glad that the audience's instinct was to cheer to celebrate Matt's hard work as a writer even if a few jokes don't land lmao. That's a logical response, knowing how much work everyone does every day - and I hope Matt had fun XD
Scollins was in RARE form this week
C'mon Ben's joke about the epi-pen was brilliant, and Alllie's about Uranus was funny and Seth knows it! He was clearly using SI as an alibi to be able to tell them. Just as I'm starting to think Scollins puts forth some really dirty jokes to be featured on this segment, especially if they make Sth look bad.I'm not complaining, quite the opposite. I love everything about this! ❤
True, even though they are 'bad jokes' they are funnier than most shows and definitely funnier that all sitcoms...on par with Family Guy I would guess. imho
What happpened to Karen Chee ? I loved Seth's "Ask a Milenial''
Seth Chee-sed her off 🤣
@@scarletspidernz That's a Chee-ep shot...
Correction! Seth claims at the start of the segment that none of the writers know about Surprise Inspection - but later he says he told Matt it was "his funeral" if he came to work.
Could it be that Seth is LYING to us!?! 😂😂😂
As a european, I think that's just your average New York City Boss - Employee exchange for you:
If you come in today, you're dead!
- Ok, see you at my desk
@@YeeSoest Definitely!
I've pointed that out before. Matt showing up to Surprise Inspection (it's not the first time he's done this) ruins the illusion that the writers don't know he critiques the jokes.
Sounds like a case for the next Corrections!
#JackalLife
That cucumber joke was so dumb it was hilarious. Scollins is a treasure
Matt is ✨serving✨ visuals fr
I would’ve bet money, that Tucker Carlson wrote the hard candy joke. Damn Mike. 😂😂😂
Scollins' Uranus joke was actually seriously funny. 🤣
Love these!
I like to play a little game watching Surprise Inspections - guess which jokes Scollins wrote. I'm getting pretty good at it 😂
that “cameras off” police academy joke is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would have given Matt a standing ovation and a salute
That cucumber joke was awesome. That should have been in the show. The melted butter joke too
Whenever I see a "surprise inspection" I grab my popcorn and wait for a Scollins joke. And he delivered. Thanks man. 🍿♥
The cop camera and the hero and heroin(e) jokes were actually really good.
I was genuinely excited when i correctly called the first two Scollins jokes in a row
lol! Love Seth getting sassy w/ the audience. "You've ruined applause. Now it's meaningless." 😂😂
Scollins never disappoints. Can we have an entire segment dedicated to his rejected jokes
Seriously, how does he have a job? They all get rejected 😂😂😂😂
They get better and better each one!!!!
Matt, with the heroes and heroines! Loved it.
It’s not about the jokes. It’s about Seth’s pain. 😊
Well his pain is personified in corrections. It is his cell after all.
I want Scollins there for surprise inspection. He needs to feel what the audience feels when we hear his jokes 😂
How good is it that you KNOW which ones are from Scollins even before reveal 😂
Surprise Inspection is so funny. I can always tell when it's Brian, Ian, or Scollins.
Ian's jokes are terrible and he makes me laugh. Every stupid pun every stupid time.
Brian's jokes are terrible but he makes me laugh. Every horrible pun, every horrible time.
Scollins is terrible. I feel bad when I laugh. Which I do. Just about every time.
I love how Surprise Inspection has taught us the vibe of the writers. Like how with Matt, you usually have to have some sort of secondary knowledge to get the joke. And how Allie has a weird and sometimes dark sense of humour, but it doesn't hold the creepy menace that Scollins has.
I've noticed that Brian is like the mid point between Ian and Scollins. If a joke is a terrible but mostly harmless pun, it's Ian. If the joke makes your skin crawl, it's Scollins. If it's a pun that makes your skin crawl, or a dad joke that's just a little too dark, it's Brian.
You ever notice the face Ian makes in his headshot looks like an expression an animator would give to a derpy cat? Ian is also sort of a good name for a cat. Detective Ian Buttons III. Smallest cop in Brooklyn, but gosh darn it, he gives it his best.
This comment was a journey, and I'm so glad I took it with you
I haven't seen enough Karen Chee flops that make it to Surprise Inspection to recognize her style
Agreed, @@lightningpastry2153! Usually when it's Karen I sit there going 'Who wrote this?' and rolling through names. Then when her face comes up it's like 'KAREN!'
Scollins' Uranus joke was pretty good, too.
NASA publishes a high resolution photo of Uranus.
Me: wow, great view of its rings.
Seth's writers: assignment met for today.
I wanna ask Ian how come he didn’t use “tempura-ture” - it was right there lol
I want more suprise joke inspections!
Srsly though, what other late night show has this; you and your team and this outfit y'all have going on here are something special, Seth
Don't know why we needed a Surprise Inspection. These were all bangers!
That "gotem" was perfect.
Jokes that are too bad for the show = great segment for the show
That's some serious efficiency! It's like a joke hotdog made from all the unusable parts!
Love these segments!
I'm in my 50s and the "green M&M" legend circulated when I was a tween. Glad to see it's still alive and well!!!
This is one of the best segments to ever happen
So funny. The Uranus dad joke was funny
Did... did Matt hire a stylist?
That's Cool Matt. Old Matt is gone.
My favorite segment ever!!
Every single one of those jokes was hilarious. 😂😂😂
One day, I hope Surprise Inspection will have nothing but Scollins jokes…
THANKS!! FINALLY! the calendar (around 4:19) done right: with the entire weekend at the end of the week, where it belongs.
I think the audience is trying to tell you we want more surprise inspections. We want more "bad" jokes. In our house we actually made this a game where we try to guess who made which joke and we are getting better and better. 😅
Oh man, we really a writer on set more often when they record these
So much fun 😂
Thank you for doing this! Hilarious
Love you Seth and your host of writers you make me laugh quite often and I want to thank you and your writers, Peace , moved all the way to Thailand from Boulder, Colorado 24 years ago😎🏝☮🌴🌴🌴✌💖
This segment was hilarious
I want the old Matt photo back
The gyro/heroin joke was solid.
I'd cut off whatever I'm watching to see what options the writers put forward and didn't get picked cuz for me, that's the genuine heart of comedy late night. The innocence of writers just going with their flow. Best part of you ask me, I prefer the ones that don't matter much to TV.
This is by far my favourite segment of the show
HAHA! As soon at the cucumber joke was said I went, "SCOLLINS!" =D.
Yooooooo! Mike came out swinging LOL.
Isn't that weird? I like Closer Look and the Monologue, but I love Surprise Inspection, Jokes Seth Can't Tell and Corrections so much more!
I loved every minute of this segment. Best surprise inspection ever!!
Love this bit so much. My favorite recurring bit.
Audience was weird on this one, but at least they applauded to get Seth's goat.
SSSKAAAAALIIIINNNZZ!!!
This is my favorite recurring segment
This is my new favorite segment😂
The studio audience love all the behind the scenes people. One of the make-up artists will come in for a legitimate reason and become co-host without meaning to.
Hi Brian! Allergic to nuts, loved the joke!! Allergy sufferers need to chill 🤣
4:50 *standing ovation* 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank You Seth & Team for all the joy you create...love ya all to bits..
Those writers are gonna start showing up.
That staff is exactly as diverse as i pictured it to be
Shows all jokes are good jokes..this is Seth's answer to Meanwhile...😊❤😂😂
I find it entertaining trying to pick the Scollins jokes during the surprise inspections...I get the feeling that they're either absolute gold...or horrendously inappropriate, but given Australian humour it's always funny....(not taking away anything from any of the other writers, and "Seth giving the punchlines "that Seth Can't tell"" was brilliant.
Mike Scollins, your (clearly deliberately "terrible" jokes) that would never be broadcast, are brilliant, could we please have a series of "Surprise Inspections" for each writer randomly. Matt does look like James May from 30 years ago now....
But what people don't know is that the Photo of Mr Scollins in the tank top, Seth has the Tatto on his back...life size...😅
