He gave a pretty good summary of what went down.
It is interesting how the various late night talk shows are emerging from the pandemic lockdowns. Kimmel and Samantha Bee are back to what it was like before, wearing formal outfits and standing on stage in their studios, though without a large live audience. Seth Meyers is back at his desk on the studio stage but still dressed casually. Stephen Colbert is also dressed casually and in his office. Trevor Noah is the most casual. He looks like he may be still at home, though it may be his studio office. He dresses in a hoodie and is unshaven and letting his hair grow out.
I’m interested in knowing why this is interesting?
Dunno, Ichthyic — are you?
(What a weird question!)
The thing which is annoying me about Jimmy Kimmel’s current format is the highly distracting interrupting and utterly pointless applause (the equally absurd and distracting canned(?) laughter doesn’t help either).
blf,
Kimmel has a live audience that is physically distanced and seems to consist at least partly of people who work for the show.
@4, Yes, and their seemingly-constant interruptions with applause is extremely distracting, especially when there is no obvious reason for it (which seems to me to be most of the times it happens).
