You got the combo perfectly! To think it started as a late night show with the conventions and all (and it's own bit of flavor, as all late night has), and now it's become whatever THIS beautiful mess is :)

I can't get with the laugh-track tho. Live audiences are .... annoying.

[@ragnarocking]

It was honestly a little shaky the first day back with an audience. As I had only started watching this show after the pandemic started, I was worried they would revert to a tame, PG-13-ish show. This episode put my mind at ease though 😀

As soon as you see the monologue is over 12 minutes you know it is going to be an instant classic. The best monologue section in late night TV anywhere. By unanimous decision! And still late night monologue champions!! The Late Late Shoooow!!!

The show can literally start charging the audience. The monologue is literally a stand-up show now. They have celebrity interviews and musical performances to end the show. I would not be surprised and actually like it if James starts roasting the audience. And considering this show airs at midnight, it's perfect.

[@abbycross90210]

I'd be happy with him telling them to stfu every night. I want to hear the crew, not the freeloaders' damn hootin'-n-hollerin'.

In an average room, Hagar finds 43 items she can use as a lethal weapon, including the room itself. One of my favourite Chuck Norris jokes.

[@Drake5607]

It does not seem mandatory (the presence); in the last 6 months, a lot of "new" people showed up and, sometimes, James mentioned that they were working remote or not there during the show. Its probably good for their career to be seen on late night television, interact with James, making joke, etc. However, immense respect to all indeed :)
