[@Catherinzsl]

Everybody who's been part of these "at home" shows has done an amazing job. Thanks and love to you all.

[@htoner87]

The nightly sign off of "Stay safe, wash your hands, we love you" was honestly so comforting during these weird times. It always seemed genuine and heartfelt in a "we're all in this together" kind of way. I know these silly strange shows have been a huge pick me up personally over these past months

[@freyjabrigid]

I completely agree. It made me emotional.

[@annadale7443]

I couldn’t agree more.

[@shayboogie3682]

Not strange at all - the “We love you” was always heartfelt and i believed it every time Seth said it... ❤️

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

I totally agree, I'm a nurse at a large urban hospital and I have spent many a sleepless night in the last 5 months. But I literally lived for these Closer Look segments every night. I would listen to them over and over every time I woke up in the middle of the night wondering if I had a sore throat, cough, fever, etc. And I slept alone all these months because I didn't want to risk even the slightest possiblity of getting my wife sick. Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@Chxrlotte]

Right there with you, from across the Atlantic, these shows made me feel so much less alone

[@Tilly1770]

I watched a documentary on Watergate and I kept saying to myself, “that’s...that’s it? That’s all that happened? It’s not even that bad.” And then I sat back and realized how very, very low the bar is now. He will never be held accountable.

[@mismay360]

The bar is subterranean

[@sweetpepper13]

And Fox News says mission accomplished! Ailes' intended through the network to prevent any other Republican president from being held accountable.

[@AnexoRialto]

If Nixon had had Fox News and if Republicans had had no sense of guilt, he'd never have resigned or been impeached. Roger Ailes started Fox News so Watergate would never happen again.

[@sweetpepper13]

@Yoster Schnauss I agree. I totally understand why, for the sake of democracy, you do not bring charges against than other party but sometimes prosecution is warranted.

[@sxxxxxlxxx]

Tilly1770 Yeah being at a point where people don’t think Watergate was that bad really does show how low the bar is. It’s really disgusting how Watergate is supposed to be one of THE biggest scandals in American political history, and now the bar is so low that people are like “🤷🏽‍♀️”. Obstructing an investigation is just ONE of the things Trump has done.

Turkish proverb? Or RUSH song?

[@Kelly_Ben]

Brilliant!

[@Dan_Ben_Michael]

I think it is a totally apt analogy for Trumpism and this comment should have more likes. Although it has been cited as “A Turkish Proverb” on the internet, and I’m sure it is a proverb in Turkey, this proverb has been around for millennia. There are versions of this in Hebrew, Ancient Greek (Aesop has a version which I recall from my childhood), Urdu, Persian, and many other western Asian languages, I think the oldest known is Ancient Assyrian and there even is a Rush song called the Trees which references this fable.

[@minniegranger1667]

There’s something about Seth that made watching these shows feel more like I was watching a video message from a friend back home catching me up on the latest news. And every time he said, “Stay safe, wash your hands, we love you”, it felt like he meant it. It made me smile every single time. I’m really going to miss these at-home shows.

[@stephaniemaloney4324]

Every. Single. Time. Like he was saying it specifically to me.

Yes he was very innovative and caring

[@beenaplumber8379]

I was never a fan of his studio show. I really felt this format let me get to know him. Like, he was talking to me instead of talking to the studio audience. I think that intimacy really worked for him. I'll miss these shows too.

I’ve been living alone throughout this whole pandemic, and I cannot express just how much being able to wake up every morning and watch this show meant to me. It was one consistent thing during a time when everything else has been crazy. Not only that, but Seth rly felt more earnest and vulnerable while filming from home and that meant the world to me tbh

I don't live alone anymore, but I have been living with my parents throughout this pandemic and I wholeheartedly agree. There was a sense of camaraderie and vulnerability to all of these pandemic episodes because we are all experiencing the similar feelings of isolation and uncertainty for the future. I'm really going to miss watching these before bed every night. It's selfish and I'm happy his staff can begin returning to their normal, but I will genuinely miss this.

[@BrokeredHeart]

I'm not gonna lie, the first show back with a live studio audience is going to be really weird. I actually have really enjoyed these segments and the lack of audience laughter behind them. The humour got more warped, and the jokes got more biting. Not sure if that will translate back as quickly, but at least once they allow people back in to watch the tapings live again, we'll know that life has finally returned to some semblance of normalcy. Thanks to Seth and the rest of the Late Night crew for helping me get through this nightmare with a shred of my faith in humanity intact. You have made this ordeal a little more bearable by continuing to do what you do. Be safe out there!

[@karmenfox5349]

I'm really going to miss your at-home shows. The bits were absurd, endearing, and just what I needed to get through the darkest days of this pandemic. That you've continued to raise money for City Harvest, while other late night shows' fundraisers petered out, proves you and your team's commitment to providing more than just laughs during these hard times. Thank you. I especially love how you ended each show with "Stay safe. Wash your hands. Wear a mask. We love you." It inspired me to end my work emails with "Stay safe and healthy," which I then truncated to "Take care." I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes, but it certainly rings more sincere than "Regards." Farewell to the Sea Captain and all the other goofy characters, and good luck to you and your land-loving crew back in New York!

Seth, if there's one thing you take away from the past 4 months, I hope that you understand how much the Closer Look segments have helped keep so many of us sane, given us some hope and helped us weather the ongoing storm. Don't ever stop. I realize how absurd it is to suggest that a late night show segment has help me keep it together but if there's something we've learned, it's that leadership and reason come from places you don't always expect to find it when you're surrounded by chaos and so much idiocy.

Agree!!! I loved seeing his kids!! Also I only stared watching a Closer look and with it bring at Seths home so seeing it the studio will be weird!!

[@robertlee1497]

You "loved how quickly Seth protected his child's head from getting bumped."? Didn't you hear what Seth said? "Don't give away how many times we've done this." Obviously there were MANY retries...and each time the little one hit his head on the rocks. He's that storm-trooper from Star Wars...you know?...the one that bangs his head on a 'not fully' opened door? George Lucas is probably thinking..."yup, i feel you Seth. Had the same problem with this one guy." I love bloopers...:)

[@TheLauren800]

Robert Lee lol!!! I do love seths comment about don’t give away how many times we’ve don’t this!!! I could just watch that last part all day just adorable also Asher (?!) looking off to the side looking so proud at no doubt his mom or grandparents.

[@unmeshl.6708]

I've been saying it since they started quarantining, but Seth has owned the stay at home late night show game. The absurd bits were fun, the commentary was scratching, and his delivery has always been on point. Will miss the sea captain, and the wasps, and the general hijinx. Thanks Late Night show team.

The ending song and clips were so touching back then, and still are on rewatch. Thanks for showing all the set up that you were doing and compiling the best memories from this time with you.

The at home and in-laws places have been amazing to see, as well as give us all a unique experience while keeping us informed (not that most of us aren't, but Seth's take on the news is nice.) Seeing the Thorn Birds, Seth's kids, the sea captain...Well, maybe one of those could make it back to the show. But thanks for the months Seth.

Hands down, Seth Meyers' show has been my favorite of all the quarantine late night fare. Seth's exhausted, deadpan delivery fits this hellscape of a year perfectly.

[@janewadey1304]

Hi Seth! I am a Brit who has only just found you and I have so enjoyed rerunning your shows!! Over the last 6 months I have become obsessed with "What has Trump said or done today to harm America, democracy and every American he is supposed to represent, support, defend and lift up?" and I want to show my absolute support for all Americans who are actually living with Trump's madness every day. I want to thank you Seth for educating me and giving the madness a comedic slant whilst also making sure that your viewers understand the seriousness and the danger of everything Trump and his equally lawless, unethical and untruthful cronies say and do daily that harms America. Needless to say, but every Brit I speak to is as shocked and embarrassed for you all as I am!! Why isn't this guy being held accountable? Why are your reporters so soft on him? Why does Fox support him so unfailingly even though he lies to them just as much as everyone else? Why isn't he in court for not releasing his tax returns? How is he getting away with everything he has done? We don't understand that!! Thanks for your show, it's been great to see you in your home and your kids are a joy!! I'll continue to follow your show in the studio and you can use what I have said as a Brit who just doesn't understand how the crook ever got elected in the first place! PLAN YOUR VOTE - VOTE BLUE FOR THE SAVING OF YOUR COUNTRY

[@Edu_Kate]

But wait, Bannon's arrest gets better. According to "Business Insider," the yacht where he was arrested on is owned by a Chinese businessman. Jr. promoted this scheme and is now walking it back, saying "except for that speech, I never supported it." The speech on video where he's saying it's a really great thing. THAT would be the jewel in the crown if Jr. gets arrested.
