And just like that, late-night television is back and playing major catch-up in their first night after five months away. It was a whirlwind of coverage for Jimmy Fallon<\/strong>, Jimmy Kimmel<\/strong>, Stephen Colbert<\/strong>, Seth Meyers<\/strong>, and John Oliver<\/strong> now that the writers strike is over.<\/p>\n As soon as the WGA went on strike in May, the late-night shows all went dark. Our nightly coverage of the weirdest and wackiest things going on in the world was gone, and boy could we have used them to help process some of the craziness of the past five months.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Luckily, they returned with the intentions of doing just that. This meant a full-episode “A Closer Look” for Seth Meyers on Late Night<\/em>. Stephen Colbert gave us a super-sized monologue to make up for it on The Late Show<\/em>, while Jimmy Kimmel Live!<\/em> made up for lost time with a whole slew of Trump jokes — and the one Trump story that almost made him cross the picket line!<\/p>\n Everyone seemed determined to way in everything from Trump’s indictments, arrest and mugshot to Lauren Boebert’s friskiness getting her in trouble at the Beetlejuice<\/em> musical. And of course they couldn’t resist cracking jokes about how long they were gone by comparing The Bachelor<\/em> on the air when they left to The Golden Bachelor<\/em> on the air now.<\/p>\n The quintet also weighed in on the hard work done by the WGA negotiating committee, while lamenting that it took so very long to finally get a fair deal for the writers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Unable to render YouTube Video.<\/strong><\/p>\n Jimmy Kimmel Was 'Intent' on Retiring Before Strike, Affleck and Damon Offered to Pay Staff <\/h4>\n
