Late Night with Seth Meyers is done ... for now. The late-night TV show behind "A Closer Look" has closed up shop for the year.
And what a year it was for Late Night with Seth Meyers. An election year is a long year for the entire country, and things were no different for Seth Meyers and his team.
So even if it weren't the holidays, we'd expect Meyers and everyone else at Late Night to take a break. The show wrapped up its 2024 last week and now looks to recharge.
NBC will air rerun episodes starting Monday, December 23, during Late Night's normal timeslot. The first one up is a repeat of the October 8 show featuring Nathan Lane, Rosemarie DeWitt, and Amelia Dimoldenberg.
Appearances by the Meyers family, Liam Neeson, Jenny Slate, Tim O'Brien, Jim Gaffigan, and Allison Tolman are also on the schedule this week. The network also plans to reair the November 27 episode with Jennifer Hudson, James Acaster, and Michael Narciso on Monday, December 30.
What's next for Late Night with Seth Meyers?
Late Night with Seth Meyers has evolved since it came on the air a decade ago. At first, it seemed to primarily be an extension of Meyers' "Weekend Update" work with a healthy dose of Saturday Night Live nostalgia thrown in.
And while that is still the case, it's been Meyers' political commentary that has made him one of the more important voices on television. So with another Donald Trump administration ready to take office in 2025, Meyers, "A Closer Look," and Late Night will have a lot to cover.
Meyers responded with "let's f***ing go" following Trump's victory. The host would rather move on from the controversial figure but that doesn't mean he's backing down ... even if he's on Trump's enemy list.
NBC must feel the same way. Earlier this year, the network extended Meyers' contract. The Late Night host will stay on the air at least through 2028 ... just in time for another election.
