Jokes Seth can't tell is one of the funniest skits in TV. I crack up every time. "Black women and lesbians and black women that are lesbians are liars". Keep up the great work.
I love all four of these people, some of the funniest, wittiest folks around. I first heard about Wanda Sykes from my coworker back in the early 90s. He was an amateur stand-up comic at the time, he later went pro. He raved about her, said she was the best comic he'd ever seen. High praise from a guy who knew comedy. He wasn't wrong!

@@AdrianColley I'll answer your unasked question anyway. Underwire bras have plastic wires under the cups so they supposedly add more support to the boobs.

@@bonghunezhou5051 i don’t wanna disparage that other show, but I think everyone needs to recognize the superiority of the Brownstone residents (and Maxine) and not the folks living in crazy expensive Manhattan apartments while one person was a barista (and kinda bad at it) and another one was a mostly out of work actor.

Not gonna be super popular with this, but Livin' Single was a vastly superior show to Friends. Even if you don't agree at the very least Livin' Single didn't deny 9/11 or pretend white people didn't exist.
*Living Single* was most definitely superior to Friends. And it came first. AND, at one point, the producers of Friends were speaking with the creators of *Living Single* right as they started filming the show. *They were told the premise was of six New York friends who go in and out of each other's apartments all the time, two of them being related, etc., and that it was about their friendships, love lives, and occasionally work.* A year later, those rip off artists created a white version and called it Friends.
PREACH!!! If "Friends" is Elvis, "Living Single" is all the black artists whose music he stole and repurposed. It mystifies me how a show as basic and boring as "Friends" remains so popular.
They gave her one. It was bad. This was like 10 years ago. I doubt it was her fault - all these hosts live and die by their writing team and so it's not one person's success or failure. But it was bad.
That Tampax joke also would have worked fine in Germany, where companies aren't "in the red" but "write red numbers" which you'd be able to do if you used one...a used one...
Fun Fact: The African-American Museum of Iowa is across the Cedar river from The National Czech and Slovak Museum, which was literally picked up and moved after the flood of 2008! ua-cam.com/video/A6Zdg82U3CQ/v-deo.html
Frisbee's not on your desk! And that made me and the hubby think, "What happened to that bet you had with Andy about the NBA Finals?” We are DYING to know!!! 💀
I can't believe Seth makes me go research whether or not "neither" is appropriate to use when referring to 3 things. While the word neither does refer to 2 things, and Seth should probably say he's none of those instead, it's been used to refer to more than 2 since the 17th century so it's acceptable.
The BEST THING about Seth's show is THE LOVE SHOWN amongst the staff, like a real family atmosphere. And then they all care about our country. Someday when this ends, it'll be worse than one of those beloved family series, cuz at least they would have TV movie re-boots. Like 'Return to Walton's Mountain'. Wally Cue Card (Grandpa) will be gone, but he'll be spoken about honorably by the interns during the re-boot.
You're using the word "neither" incorrectly. Amber is black, Jenny is gay and they're both women. That's three things you're not. "Neither" only refers to two things you're not. It comes from "nahwæþer", meaning "not one of two".
So I absolutely love this segment and I love Amber and Jenny but I feel like it could be even better if it was more varied with different ethnicities. Jew jokes, Asian jokes, Muslim jokes, Native American jokes, Indian jokes, gay men jokes, trans jokes, etc. The possibilities are endless!
That joke about the museum is hilarious, and for more than the face value. I live in Cedar Rapids, where the museum is located. They initially considered moving the building back in 2011 due to it being prone to flooding. The Czech and Slovak Museum is in the same neighborhood now, because it actually was moved across town. The renovations are going to building a flood wall instead of moving it.

Yes Amber I easily got that reference about Living Single. Such a great show from the 90s with a catchy theme song from Queen Latifah to boot.
My friends and I loved that show
Justice for the Living Single cast!
Living Single is still funny to this day! just a real gem of a show!
Living Single does deserve far greater recognition - without tearing down _that other show_ .

More than any other Late Night talk show host, the Seth Meyers brand of humor is just everyone in on the joke and having a good time.
And people say "you can't make jokes anymore"...
That a great way to put it, and I agree!
The jokes are great but the best thing about this segment is watching Amber's reactions 2:25 😃
Especially that is the one seth cant tell haha
That WAS a great joke. She's the best
Her reactions are always awesome & this was ine if her best! I ❤AR
I miss the blonde lady from the Late Night Press Conferences. Wonder what she's been up to? 🤔
Amber is a treasure.
This 👍🏼 is for Amber’s doctor joke. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
The fact a healthy chunk of the audience didn’t respond to the Living Single reference kind of proves Amber’s point. 🤣
“Uh oh! It’s like this everywhere.” Was phenomenal 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😂😂
Edit: I rewinded it before the joke was finished 😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
"Ya know if I had that Amber and Jenny thing I'd still be on the air." -David Letterman to Seth on the show.
@@lonutta it’s a joke about how it’s a good bit, not a genuine statement. letterman retired
I think he meant he would have cover for certain jokes
Bwahaha!!
@@riley6646 he didn't totally retire, just from latenight, he has that Netflix show "my next guest".
Except for one thing: Letterman is an asshole in real life. Seth isn't. The difference isn't hard to see.
They need to do these more often.
It's also time to bring back the segment "Not now ________". I believe the last one was some kind of sand spider or something and we were all still in the throws of COVID. Now it's time for a reboot featuring monkeypox.

Wanda always deserves the best chair in any room she enters.
He rightfully understood the comedic pecking order and kissed the ring.
@@samringwaldI concurr
Wanda is looking great! Always happy to hear her perform, no bullshit. So very glad she stopped by
Dear cable network, please give Wanda Sykes a weekly show where she gets to say whatever she wants for an hour! I would watch the $#*+ out if that!

This really is such a good segment. The way Late Night lets us in on the inside jokes among the staff is really fun and unique :)
This will forever be one of my favorite segments. Pure brilliance every time.
The devil’s work is underwire. Word!
When she said that, I yelled out "PREACH IT, GIRL, PREACH IT!!!!!"

Every morning I check UA-cam to find out if the world has ended yet. Finding this video started my day with legitimate joy. Thank you. Seriously.
My favorite skit, I love how Seth immediately bowed to the queen Wanda and offered his chair
I also demand justice for Living Single. Friends better give back what they stole

You should check out her show on Peacock!

Not so much a correction but rather an amendment for graphics: the title card here should reflect Seth’s new anti-suit attitude.
And look less like Dennis Reynolds
@@tysoncornfield3317 Because of the implication?
But can you imagine what graphics will come up with given their vibe?
Perhaps Seth should start a show to correct corrections called amendments.
The lack of applause during the living single joke was very telling…
People laughed. Laughter > applause.
@@AdrianColley ok then, the lack of laughter was telling lol. I was just surprised by the reaction when I yelled out loud listening to amber

Silly Seth.
Next time will be different. Don't give up
Like Charlie trusting Lucy with the football.
Wanda Sykes was BORN to do this segment. It was long overdue!
My favorite Late Night bit of all time 😂
Love Amber and Jenny. And Wanda being there made this even better.
1:22 I know that's right Amber 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Lesbian Kiss would be a great cover band.
Guys would pay to see it even if they didn't like the music.
Band name? Band name.

I love this sequence so much. So pure, so good.
Tampon shortage? Good thing I 'm at the Poise stage. ( Thank you! Please tip your waitress!)
This segment is so brilliant. (Edited: and definitely deserved bigger reactions/laughs)

I love that Wanda Sykes jumped in for this one!
11/10 best segment
The Tampax "in the red" joke was my favorite! Seth DID need to do that one, lol
Still got huge love for Wanda. Her stand up is kick a$$!
