My Husband and I have enjoyed watching your show and seeing you entertain. My husband also is alumni from Northwestern with a Masters and a PhD in Communications. What I am not appreciating right now is your Whole program on how you hate Trump! This was a long crueling election and quite frankly I'm very very tired of your whiney butt disrespectinh him. He is the President of our United States now no matter what you say is not going to change this. And I for one will not continue watching your show any more especially if you try and whip a dead cow!! Let's get back to your fun way of your TV show. PLEASE!!! Let's be more entertaining again for America!!! I do hope you read this and maybe change your way! Tired of the same ol Sheeeeee it!

I am not sure why you wrote about your husband's high level of education but thank you for that. Now that we are enlightened and aware of how educated he is (thank you again), maybe he could sit you down and teach you how to spell.

Thanks Peggy, couldn’t have said it better. He’s s cry baby loser, Will never watch him. He should just run for office and join the rest of the whiny babies in Washington.

Hey Peggy for what it’s worth I totally agree with you. I can’t say I’m happy with everything Trump has done but if we openly continue to show such disrespect, how can we possibly expect other countries to respect our authority and stance as a country? Those answering that were ugly about your comment are most likely those that didn’t use their right to even vote and now they are angry at the outcome. Whether we, as Americans agree or disagree with our President as citizens of this great country we should still show respect for the office. We put him there. If we don’t like his choices, then we should vote differently. I used to enjoy watching Seth Meyers but his writers constantly write about President Trump. It’s like there is nothing else they know. My husband I have totally quit watching just because they have nothing else to make fun of and it is so monotonous. Thank you for speaking what I was thinking.

Stephen Colbert & Seth Meyers
I am a 71 year old white male life long Republican. I change to independent when we lost 5000+ kids in 2 bad wars.

I wanted to suggest that Monday night you could take the time and show the results of the positive vote for the conformation for James Mattis and John Kelly. They seem like great choices for their new roles. The results were 98 to 1 and 88 to 12 which would show bipartisan in the process.
If you would tell the audience and the viewing public the results of the conformation vote during the week showing the voting Senators by Party, name and state for the following President picks for conformation.
Jeff Sessions--Tom Price--Steven Mnuchin and Andrew Puzder.
Since the woman's march all over the world Saturday and President Trump popularity poles, these Senators just might wake up and vote for their conscience rather than party.
Two others:
Rex Tillerson highly respected, wrong job and wrong time.
Betsy Devos seems silly when she justified guns in schools for shooting bears.
On you tube, search for "Conformation Hearings" an d you will find the swamp is getting bigger.
My local paper shows the votes of my 2 senate guys, but it's on section 2 and the last pages.You guys have a great following to the viewing public. If you show these results on your show, most newspapers will pick it up and spread it to the first few pages of the paper reading public. It just might make the difference.
Thank you in advance,
Dennis Garich

Thank you so much for providing fans with the opportunity to laugh in the face of political insanity. Anyone who doesn't enjoy your show doesn't have to watch. I look forward to your show every day!

Look, I enjoy a good night comedy show tremendously. Politics will always play a part in our lives and we will live with the democracy that we have and will always live under. That is what makes America and the land we live in great. Your show has become impossible to watch because it is so one sided, you are ruling out half the country with your constant political one sided views against the party that won the election. you have lost me as a viewer and you will continue to lose so many viewers that your show will lose. it is exhausting and obviously you are using your outlet for personal beliefs. its disgusting. if you want to retain your show I would suggest less political one sided views. maybe im completely wrong but just one average american's feeling . it is pretty disgusting how one sided you are.

he will not lose me, he will be continuing with his political pundits because there is so much fuel to put on the fire....
he has my respect and since I am one of those that Pres Small Hands will hurt, I get to laugh my butt off as I please....
you might switch channels and watch something more appropriate to your mental capabilities and sensitivities, as is your right ....but leave the rest of us with a sense of time and intelligence the chance to enjoy the ride....we ride the roller coaster, not the kid rides

Thank you so much for your biting and wonderful spots on The Donald.
I am one of the 20M that will be disenfranchized by The Donald's moves against ACA.
I worked 46 yrs, paid MY taxes for 46 yrs, do volunteer work now and have been placed on disability due to medical conditions that are taxing to me ( pun intended)
I am terrified of this man (not much of a man) and what he is doing to our country.....
His quotes for my insurance premiums are exactly what I get from disability, I can barely survive now and he will gleefully take away all that I have, including my dignity
So.....thank you for making me laugh! I have never watched your show before and now that I have found you, you have a new fan....you are personable, funny as hell, witty and a flippin' joy to watch....
so.....as me and others like me who will succumb to our maladies since we will not be able to afford a doctor/medications.....it will not deter The Donald from perfecting his golf game, he needs a lot of practice to swing with a small heart and very small hands (hhhmmmm, small hands, small (*&^)

Hey Seth,
Love your show and look forward to "A Closer Look" :) You are very intelligent and funny :) ... I wanted to see if you've ever heard of "S.W.A.N.A.", which stands for "South West Asia, North Africa"...this, I was taught almost 20 years ago in undergrad, is the politically correct term for the "Middle East", a clearly ethnocentric term used by the United States and other countries... I cannot believe the term "Middle East" is still in use... this can be thought comparatively to the old term the "Far East" for China... one might ask the question, Middle East and Far East from what? Meaning east of what?, Europe, the U.S.A.? Food for thought...I wish I could remember my professor's name to give him credit for teaching about S.W.A.N.A., he was from Lebanon and was genuinely bothered by the term "Middle East"...this old term (Middle East) is offensive and should not be used in the future...maybe you could promote the non-offensive language on your show by chance? I'm a huge fan, you're wonderful, don't listen to the haters...

I tried very hard to see your humor, but all you do is knock our President. I see your ratings are down, maybe you should try a different approach.

I am a man from a small country in Europe, which is sometimes confused with Australia 'cos of the name. I watch your late night show from time to time on the internet. What really got me was John Snow invited to a dinner party. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. Winter is coming! Anyway. This is what came to my mind recently when I was watching your show (and I am not gay): "He`s the kind of man, if I was a woman, I would fall in love with (qoute from Casablanca, when the prefect of police tells Ilsa Lund about Rick, before she meets him). Thank god I'm not a woman (or gay)! You are awesome! Cheers! I love you! You can publish this. Or not, I don't care. LOL

How stupid were your "funny" political jokes on a closer look? Not funny even for anti Trump listeners.

Instead of bashing trump why don't u try supporting him.I couldn't have cared who won the presidency but whoever won that's who we need to support .Im sure he has enough to deal with rather than be bothered by your mean comments. And the athletes need to be fired for kneeling they are disrespecting the men and women who fight for their freedom and no matter which way u look at it they are disrespecting them

I love your show. Keep emphasizing the actions of Trump and now the hypocrisy of Matt Lauer. Those who hate your show should stick to watching that entertaining judge on Fox.

Since Donald Trump is so prolific at name calling, could you start referring to him as "demented Donald"?

I live in Ohio. I know John Kasich is going to be on your show next week. Please don't soft peddle things with him. Here are the facts: Under Kasich Ohio's education system has gone from 5th in the nation to 22nd. The average household income in Ohio ranks 32nd nationally. 1 in 7 Ohioans now lives below the poverty rate, which is higher than the national average. Ohio ranks 39 out of 50 in the nation for health and life expectancy. Ohio leads the nation in heroin and opioid overdose deaths. Kasich increased sales tax so he could reduce the state income tax. The cutbacks have meant that local municipalities have decreased local services. Ohio ranks 45th in infant mortality but Kasich has preferred to focus on taking away women's reproductive health decisions 20 times under his governorship, including signing a bill making it illegal for a woman to have an abortion after a fetal diagnosis of Down syndrome. Please keep him accountable for his record, not just his campaign to appear different than Donald Trump.

Dear Seth-

Let me preface this by telling you that I love your show and 99.9% of what you say on it. Thank you for providing a shred of sanity in our world during this very troubling presidency.

With that being said, I am writing to tell you that I was very disappointed that you made a joke on your show recently, in which you referenced a bachelor party with a stripper. Bachelor parties with strippers are part of the mysogenist strand of our culture that perpetuates the acceptance of objectifying women, viewing us as sex objects, and condones the unacceptable behaviors of predatory men that you spoke out against at the Golden Globe Awards.

We need to educate the next generation of men to respect women, and to celebrate their natural sexual feelings in a healthier way that is not harmful or objectifying to women. As a public figure who I believe is more culturally sensitive and aware than most men in your industry, I hope that you will stop making jokes that treat the objectification of women’s bodies as the status quo of American social norms.

Respectfully,
Mari Arnaud

Dear Seth-

You were never a favorite of mine on SNL. Now, you make a comment about Donald Trump "being President after losing by 3 million votes..." I'm here to tell you, son, that that's not how the system works. We go by Electoral votes. If it were the other way around Trump would have played a different strategy...like spending more time in those states. For your information, Crooked Hillary should have spent more time in Wisconsin, etc....Blow it out your tailpipe...

Trump did drain the swamp, and he replaced it with a sceptic tank.

Enough of the President Trump bashing. Take a hint from all these comments on here. Many people I know have quit watching you because of your hatred towards our President. Do your part to help this divided country that we live in, don’t add to it. Honestly, with all these comments bashing you for what you say about Trump, how do you still have your job...NBC wake up....

Seth Myers could be funny if he quit droning on and on with his tired political tirade.
Very sad that his late night show has degenerated into something that isn’t even funny.
I have stopped watching it and hope others voice their displeasure by doing the same.

Real Time with Bill Maher on August 3, had a guest at the end of the program named Nancy MacLean, a history professor @ Duke University, who wrote a book called, "Democracy in Chains". She states that Trump is being used as a distraction for the Koch brothers long game - which is to amend the constitution with 10 Liberty Amendments. There is a book about this called, "The Liberty Amendments". They have 28 of the 35 votes necessary to call a constitutional convention. The amendments include: A mandatory balanced budget which would end Social Security and Medicare; Mandatory voter ID; Rescinding the 17th amendment, which elects senators. If the news media made this public it might
invigorate democrats to vote in the next election, or enrage the public.

Thanks for your excellent informative reporting,
Peggy Bechtell

On Sept 14 you had trouble finding something nice to say about Ted Cruz. As a Democrat living on a blue island in a red sea, all I can say is that "he's biodegradable".(I stole this from an ex-high school student trying to say something nice about his English teacher.) Marilyn Love

Seth Meyers is a total joke. I’ve never seen or heard a more disrespectful person. It’s obvious he a huge Liberal and gives President Trump zero credit for the fantastic job he’s doing for our country. Meanwhile, he praises Obama who was nothing but a HUGE divider.

For the past few years you begin every show badmouthing our 45th POTUS. That gets old pretty quick! How dare you be so disrespectful to Donald J. Trump! You are certainly entitled to your opinions, but I firmly believe the time has come for you to STOP the nonsense. What do you know about running our country? You're a comedian and you're not being funny. I'm sure if you check you will find that your ratings have dropped. The time has come for you to work on improving your mediocre show!

I realize that anything Trump does is news and can be made into humor BUT maybe Trump does this (obviously in part) to take your attention away from promoting Democrats. When was the last time you praised various Democrats. It would be free advertising for them. I am Canadian and I am concerned that his influence is affecting voter choices (example: Ontario). Please help Democrats be elected by you influence via the Late Show.

President Trump has modified and changed what is needed at the southern border to try and compromise with the democrats. This only shows that President Trump cares more about the safety of Americans and immigrants preyed upon by drug cartels and traffickers. The Democrats had made themselves useless in every way by blocking and moving the goal post so nothing gets done. This will not hurt President Trump but it will cause them to be booted out of office.

There's a clip of Johnny Carson doing an interview skit w/ reporters' questions to a president while he's strapped to a polygraph machine. There is one woman, a young woman, in the skit who looks like an older woman with blond hair who also portrays a reporter in your interview skits. Is it possible that it's the same woman? Their mannerisms are identical.

Hello Seth, I and my husband have always enjoyed your humour, so we were disappointed when we saw/heard you mocking Marianne Williamson, a Democratic candidate, on your show, implying that she was a hippie or a would be cult leader of some kind.
She is neither. Were you not watching the debates? Did you not hear her intelligent, eloquent, powerful remarks? Did you, like Anderson Cooper, dismiss her (he was incredibly rude to her) based on assumptions rather than truth? Did you assume that she was a religious wing nut? (She’s not.)

In recovery we call this “contempt prior to investigation”; as far as I’m concerned this attitude is one of the least admirable a person working in the media could take.

Consider reading her book A Return to Love; consider really listening to her on policy or on anything else for that matter. Learn, then judge.
Come on Seth, you’re better than that.

Love the show, specially a Closer Look. Can’t end the day with out a good dose of Late Night. Recently, however, troubled by words in a segment on Trump’s pathetic media conference on Coronavirus, and his bloodless focus on the market — so far so good — because, it was stated, the market only benefits Trump’s billionaire friends. Really? What about anyone of us millions of working people whose pensions depend on the market— teachers, labor, first responders, etc. — and many more millions of younger workers whose future is in 401Ks now that pensions are have become rare. It was a wholly ridiculous statement, ignorant of the reality of market and the precarious position of working and middle class Americans — seniors and the young alike. Go after the fool, but don’t let the writers’ zeal make them stupid.

Hi. I am hoping that during this time of extra reruns you you might be able to dig into the archives and put on the show where Seth talks about a homemade Christmas gift for his mom. I remember something about it ending up looking like a jar of shit. It was the funniest story he's told. Maybe instead of some recent rerun you could put together a show with some of these funny bits. Please consider, thanks. Kelly

Hi, Seth. Love the "at home" show. Martha Stewart has suggested changing out the lamp. I am suggesting changing the books on display every night, just like you changed out the mug on your desk on every TV show. You could use books that have meaning to you or to the political scene or pick whatever suits you as an excellent producer and comedian. Don't take it personally that I listed comedian last--I think you're great and, as I said, love the show! Pat Ireland in San Antonio, Texas.
