Who’s on Late Night Tonight in Comedy?

It’s the work week leading into Labor Day, so our late night talk show hosts are following the normal schedule just like the rest of the work force in this country and taking this week off. Except of course for Conan O’Brien who never does anything normal. Team Coco is on the job and booking plenty of great comedy guests all week long.

On Monday, Conan O’Brien welcomes Bert Kreischer whose new special “Bert Kreischer: Secret Time” is now available on Netflix. Along with the new special, be sure to enjoy The Interrobang’s in-depth interview with Bert where we find out  “Bert Kreischer Keeps No Secrets in His New Netflix Special” by our own Debra Kessler.

Also on Monday night, Conan O’Brien sits down with Marc Maron, then on Tuesday, Conan has the one of the best storytelling comics in the business, Tom Segura. Tom is a comedian who is every bit as funny on the couch as he is behind the microphone. Then on Wednesday night, comedy legend Bob Newhart is on Conan along with the very funny Nikki Glaser. Finally, Conan finishes up his week on Thursday with a visit from Patton Oswalt.

Just before you catch Conan this Tuesday, turn to Comedy Central at 10:30pm for a brand new episode of “The Jim Jefferies Show.” This will be Jim’s season finale episode as the show wraps for another season. This second season of “The Jim Jefferies Show” picked up a nomination from Writers Guild of America for Best Writing in a Comedy/Variety Series. “The Jim Jefferies Show Season Finale” airs right after the season 3 finale of “Jeff Ross Presents Roast Battle” on Tuesday on Comedy Central.

Finally on Saturday, it’s your chance to catch the Season 43 finale of Saturday Night Live once again when NBC re-airs that episode hosted by one of SNL‘s favorite daughters. Tina Fey’s homecoming to Saturday Night Live replays with musical guest Nicki Minaj which originally aired on May 19, 2018.
