The pandemic probably changed late night talk forever, but for the better?

Kimmel and Fallon are unwatchable. I felt Kimmel was really settling into his role before the pandemic but now appears to be just knocked for a loop. Fallon was fingernails on a chalkboard for me before and hasn’t improved.

Jimmy Fallon’s whole schtick has been fawning over celebrities and playing games with them. Sometimes funny, often not. Without an audience, or even guests he can interact with like that, he’s adrift.

If Ferguson started doing a late night show tonight from his kitchen table I would tune in every night. It would be insane.

A hundred percent. He can even bring back Geoff the Robot Skeleton without much trouble.
