Meet Taylor Tomlinson, late-night comedy's newest host

[@michael4930]

I'm just hoping we don't lose her standup comedy because of her new show. She is about as funny and articulate as they come as comedians. Metaphor, simile, tempo, style, analogy, the physicality and acting. Her standup has it all, and it's ALL done VERY well. Good luck, Taylor.

[@timpage9424]

She signed a deal for two more Netflix specials last year and she's said the stand-up isn't going away. 😄

[@michael4930]

Whew!!! That is good to hear. Thanks for the reply and info. @@timpage9424

[@nth.aurora]

​@timpage9424 that's amazing news, thank you for sharing!

[@digiwatt]

Late night is where comedy goes to die. It’s the old folks home for comedians. I don’t see how she can do a daily late night show and still hit the clubs and tour to work on material for those new specials. It’s good money though, so good for her.

[@yarsheets4572]

She won't be able to use her customarily colorful language on TV, so I'm pretty sure she'll continue the standup as an outlet at a minimum.

[@crocoboxer]

I hope her show does well. She'll be a much-needed breath of fresh air for late night TV.

[@tunahelpa5433]

Taylor's Golden ticket is her delivery. I laugh at her jokes over and over even though I can say them with her, because her facial expressions are incredible. She'll do fine as a host, no problem, because of her acting.

[@kelliott7864]

Who are you people?

[@b-dub6865]

Right. Her delivery is also singular & has been rehearsed a 1000x. It’s very different when there are 2+ people involved cuz it can be so unpredictable. I wonder how she’ll do in interviews, day in & day out, especially since that’s her Achilles heel.

[@tunahelpa5433]

@@kelliott7864 Really? I mean... really?

[@judyfrieler7016]

Love Taylor, hate the new show. Makes no sense and certainly isn’t funny.

[@mindeloman]

His name is mud now but that was the secret to Bill Cosby and his stand up. Most of the stuff he said in his standup was not that funny. It was his delivery and facial expressions that made it funny. Can't believe that guy turned out to have always been a complete POS.

[@kathyanstey3399]

I absolutely adore her. She is real, honest, humble, smart, beautiful.

[@EliseFreshwaterBlizzard]

been following her career for a while now and it's so wonderful to see her take this amazing, big new step in the world of television and comedy. Really really happy for her :)

[@peterjamesfoote3964]

Taylor Tomlinson’s openness is inspirational to anyone who has had to witness a friend or family member dealing with someone with bipolar disorder or any serious mental illness. I’m hoping her ability to talk about her experiences in such an open way will help thousands of people who need therapy to get it.

[@muxz]

She's a total natural at it. Saw her back in the fall and she was superb. So glad to see her success.

[@troygaspard6732]

She is just 30, that makes her younger than when Connan took over Late Night from Letterman. Very impressive.

[@HollisLopez26]

i think conan was also 30, very impressive either way

[@AnnaCarlson-b9u]

Looking forward to her new show!

[@Neonb88]

They are both phenomenal

[@Neonb88]

But Conan had a lot more material / economic / traditional education and success handed to him. Very sophisticated background, dad was a scientist and he got into Harvard

[@kelliott7864]

Pretty insulting to Dave and Conan to mention this woman in the same breath as those giants.

[@bilbodw]

She seems to be a genuinely nice person despite her drive for success, and that is a rare combination.

[@kelleyramsey2642]

Cannot wait to see her new show❤

[@francispeltonen3772]

I love her. She's one of the best comics out there. I Hope her late late show does very well. She is just adorable it has that likability factor so I think it will.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jessicalynne7041]

So excited for Taylor's show!

[@ShadowBanned-o_O]

She is hilarious and absolutely adorable. Never heard of her until I saw her first two specials on Netflix, then she instantly became one of my favorites. Cannot wait to see more from her!

[@TimothyATaylor]

So looking forward to her show! Haven’t watched any late-night show since Letterman, she has a great presence and should be a big success.

[@CreaticityIsLife]

Interesting to hear her thoughts on being an introvert - I imagine that's why her work is so insightful, and how she can capture the heart of a difficult topic and turn it into something that brings people together. So looking forward to the new show!

[@deannamadrigal7503]

If you are an introvert, it's a very fine line to walk. I know! If you don't give yourself enough alone time and down time you will start to go crazy by what feeds you the most not being around so much weird energy

[@Rob_Kates]

A lot of comics are probably introverts. Johnny Carson was highly introverted and very uncomfortable off stage.

[@blairjr2570]

Taylor is phenomenal

[@heybusiness1]

She is such a quick comedian and her joke structure is great her delivery is perfect and she’s a great writer

She needs this.

[@drbwhit]

I'm very excited for that show she is very very funny very very talented

[@FlawedSociety]

She is the funniest comedian today. I love her even more after this.

[@JustinCoasters]

I wonder why she always rocks the Ponytail during Stand Up?

[@RizeTB1]

Can’t wait

[@snuff2023]

Taylor is just adorable but in a grown up way. I have enjoyed her since i first heard her. Female comics aren't often seen as very funny and I'm glad Taylor and other women are breaking that stigma

[@SilencingTheMachine]

Such an amazing comedian. All her specials are always really funny which is saying something considering that recently some well know comedians just keep churning out duds on netflix.

[@elusivelectron]

She has great timing and a great choice.

[@---Tre---]

I loved the original show @midnight. I can't wait for the new show!

[@melanieomer9186]

I love taylor

[@CritVanTuyl]

I rarely watch late night shows, even though they are often great entertainment. I will endeavor to watch as she is funny and relatable to me as another member of the spectrum.

[@Mary...22-u9j]

they are never great entertainment

as long as she dont talk politics she will go far

[@DangerousDac]

It's insane to me nobody mentioned this is literally a reboot of @Midnight from about 10 years ago.

[@rtdzign]

I honestly think she is too good for late night. I think the late night format is dead or dying. I wonder if young people even watch those shows. I hope it works out for her, but if it doesn’t, I’ll look forward to getting tickets to see her stand up live.

[@bertjones3010]

It will be right here on YTube the next day I bet.

She is intelligent, open and honest and funny as hell so I will be watching her show! If it does not work- it is NOT her - it is the hellscape we call this country and the people without a sense of humor - especially direct, sarcastic and dark humor. However, she will succeed no matter the vehicle of delivering her sense of humor :)

[@H-Vox]

"hellscape" 🤣

[@panthersoul]

I love her standup. Nervous about the cbs writers though. They already killed Colbert

[@garrett21]

They need to have it be more stand up focused. Have on unknown comics and introduce new people like they did in the 90’s. Everything is so scripted now.

[@benitosandovalhere]

Stumbled upon Taylor's second Netflix special sometime in 2023 loved it and went and watch the first right after. I've been a fan ever since, got to see her live in person as well which was a blast. Some people just make you feel like they deserve success and happiness and she is one of them. Can't wait to check out the late night show and the new netflix special

Back in the day, they never heard of Conan either. :)

@@hamsandjenohbaconBut we did though. All of us who were Simpsons fans knew who Conan was.

[@JulietteTLin]

why is this segment giving slightly misogynistic undertones of "is this little girl slightly underprepared for this upcoming role?" instead of highlighting the fact that she's about to lead a late night comedy host at the age of 30 bc she's been working on her career for 14+ years, has 2 incredibly successful Netflix specials and a ton of other impressive accolades??

Her comedy is too bland. It's as if a 13 year-old writes her material. Late night on CBS died when they ousted Letterman and Ferguson. Her show won't last. Then again, CBS kept James Corden on the air for years, who's show averaged less than a million views.

[@rosspalumbo]

[@milehighhokie269]

Looking forward to this show. Break a leg Taylor!!

[@VideoRecapBot]

Real standup fans have no idea who she is

[@tobechukwuolumba7337]

She is really comical, and this will be a revamped version of "The Late Late Show" when James Corden departed. Great interview.

[@YouzTube99]

@tobechukwuolumba7337 Hopefully not. Corden's show was a apparently supposed to be the U.S. version of Graham Norton's brilliant UK program but Corden, IMO, never got it to work. He's an excellent actor (Tony award!) a decent host but but a bad interviewer. Hosting a late night show requires a special combination of skills; I wish Tomlinson well.

[@Rob_Kates]

This will be more of a game show than a traditional late night show. CBS was losing money with Corden's show.

[@yellowjacket588]

Great another garbage talk show.

[@johntuel2375]

Haha, I'm the opposite. I used to be a social butterfly up until my early 30s. Always the first one to a party and one of the last to leave. Now I'm in my 40s and I'm trying to get rid of people in my life haha.

Any hope she will dial down the political nonsense? Doubt it because Network Execs will be whispering in her ear constantly. Miss Carson and Leno.
