LATE NIGHT 2016 AUG

Who’s on Late Night Tonight in Comedy?

The late night talk shows are easing their way into the new year. Jimmy Kimmel is back, but the other late night Jimmy, Conan and Seth Meyers aren’t quite ready to jump into 2017 yet and are taking the week off. At CBS, Stephen Colbert and James Corden are doing shortened weeks by starting on Tuesday, same as the Daily Show and @midnight.

Highlights this week include a rare appearance by a stand up comic on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday when Canadian favorite and Roast Battle titan, K. Trevor Wilson visits JKL. This will really help put Kimmel out in front with with his stand up stats early this year. And if you’re going to catch up with Conan, this would be the week to do it. All of his repeats this week are featuring some of his biggest comedy guests including, T.J. Miller, Louis CK, Rory Scovel and Tracy Morgan, all through the week.
