The time is here TV fans! Let's see you gets honored or shafted.
Seth Meyers here, coming to you from my dressing room in Downtown L.A.'s Nokia Theater, where come Monday I'll be hosting the 66th Annual Primetime Emmys.
This past February I became host of NBC's Late Night franchise. I've had the opportunity to interview Reddit favorites like Bill Nye, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Chris Pratt, Lena Headey, Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen, plus tons of other actors, musicians, authors, athletes and more...
Before I joined Late Night, I spent over a decade on Saturday Night Live, where I served as a cast member, head writer and Weekend Update anchor. Some highlights thanks to Yahoo! Screen here. I'm also excited to share with you the Hulu animated series The Awesomes was just picked up for a third season! More info on that here.
Ask me about the Emmys, Late Night, SNL, The Awesomes, comics, books, sports, television and...anything!

Have a great day!

I can't find them anywhere, and I'm worried that they might be lost media
Our Emmy award winning docu-series spotlights different social/cultural/political communities and issues across the U.S., highlighting their nuances and complexities.
One of our new episodes will focus on athletics and mental health, and will be centered around Boston––the most iconic sports city. With that, we want to highlight both the humanity and comradery that sports can bring out (strengthening mental wellness for so many), along with the challenges some athletes (and particularly elite athletes) experience with their mental health.
But as we have that conversation, we know that even amongst friends, there are mixed opinions here. Some think our country and our athletes have gone soft, humoring unhelpful mental blocks and not persevering in the face of universal challenges that might just require them to suck it up, to varying degrees. Others have some sympathy for athletes, but believe that if they don't enjoy their sport at a certain point, they should simply quit. Others believe we need to do more to be mindful of athletes' mental well-being, even if we're just fans. And there are of course a lot of people in between.
We're looking to have a respectful, spirited and earnest conversation with someone or a group of people in the former camp. While this description may sound somewhat serious, our series is lighthearted and playful in nature, and this scene will be no exception.
If you think you might be interested, we're happy to have a phone conversation to better intro the show. Feel free to message me with your contact information.
