I really enjoyed it at the beginning........now it just seems like an extended SNL news anchor skit much of the time.
His girlish laugh is really irritating, even though it's genuine.
I hate the FredEx thing he's doing now........OVER.......and the fake guests..........BORING.......
He has had some interesting guests and interesting conversations with them........so, I'll keep watching......occasionally.
What do you think?

I have only seen a couple of minutes here and there of his show because I am a huge Craig Ferguson fan (same time slot). Therefore I really haven't seen enough to have a strong opinion one way or another.
However what I have seen of it was funny/good. Funny enough that maybe come December when Craig is gone I will watch him daily - but we will see because I am not sure that anyone can fill Craig's shoes in my eyes. 
I know that he (Craig Ferguson) is not for everyone but I think he is the funniest (and most intelligent) of all of the Late Night hosts out there right now.

Can't stand his show or Conan or Steven Colbert or Craig Ferguson. Letterman is OK, but I only watch it when there is someone on there I like.

I really like Seth, but I've never stayed up long enough on a weeknight to catch his show.

I honestly don't like his show. My cousin and I watched a couple nights while on vacation together and both felt the same way. We didn't find it very funny at all.

I don't think he's found his groove yet personally. But it took Jimmy awhile in Late Night to get his groove. Seth will find his way!

I used to tape him because I liked him on SNL. But he's a little dull that late at night so I no longer tape or watch.

He's had his moments, but mostly he's trying just way too hard. Last night was especially bad, with a stilted goodbye to Robin Williams and a stupid skit with a wrestling guy who said stupid things on purpose. He's just not funny to me anymore.

From the very start, his show has felt strange to me. The set looks like something that belongs on a local network show not one on a national broadcast. The band (do they change up?) reminds me of a group that's playing at a frat party or something. I don't know - when Jimmy did Late Night, he made it his own and made it cool in a different way than Conan. Seth's show just seems like they aren't trying very hard.

I think he is still deciding his persona. I loved him on SNL and am giving him a chance. I don't like his chats with Fred. Too much the same thing. My favorite interview was with his brother. I dvr 6 nighttime talk shows. My favorite is Craig. I also love Chelsea. Both of them are moving on to greener pastures.

I don't think they change the band up, I just think that Fred isn't always there because of filming of other shows he does. Jimmy definitely made Late Night his own, but I remember watching at the beginning and being meh about him too. I think Seth will come around. I think it just takes time. |

I think they picked Fred to be a beginning of the show sidekick for Seth and they kind of got in a rut. The band is good, I just am not into the same banter over the same subject when Fred is there. Mix it up.
