Late night: Five guests to get excited for this week – January 28, 2019

A big week of guests is planned across late night and we five picks you should be excited to see.

There is a reason that late night shows feature the name of the host in the title. The hosts are the main attraction and they set the tone and sense of humor for the show. But it is the guests that can keep viewers coming back night after night as the biggest names in entertainment, sports, and politics get a chance to shine in the late night spotlight.

Now that we are well into 2019, late night shows are back to their regular schedules. That means no more holiday breaks or hiatuses and instead new episodes nightly. Whether you’re a fan of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert‘s political humor, Conan‘s absurdity, or The Late Late Show with James Corden‘s musical bits, there is something you’ll want to see this week.

And the networks know that us fans are tuning in. Ratings across late night have been strong with Colbert leading the way and Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, and Jimmy Kimmel all close behind. The more we watch, the better comedy and content we’ll get from late night.

So with that all being said, Last Night On presents its picks for five late night guests to be excited for this week. Click through the slideshow to see the selections, let us know what you think and who you want to see, and then be sure to tune in this week!
