Hard to believe it's been 9 months since "Late Night With Seth Meyers" launched - and it's still NOT FUNNY. The writing is horrendously weak, Seth's delivery sucks, and the recurring "Getting to Know Fred" skit is beyond stupid. I'm fairly sure the audience has to be prompted when to laugh and extra laughter is dubbed in during post-production.

Meyers should be eternally grateful he has Fallon as his lead in because even after losing half of Jimmy's audience he's still beating his competition. Why? I'm not exactly sure because the show is terrible.

I couldnt agree more. The ideas for skits, for the most part, are horrible. And I really dont know who keeps thinking the Fred idea is a good one. Honestly, almost anything they do with Fred is atrocious.

We hardly ever watch Seth Meyers, but did last night. As soon as the monologue was over with I turned to my SO and told him how I can't stand Fred, and I hope Seth doesnt talk to him. But of course, Seth started his speech about getting to know Fred.... Do they do that every night?! Or do I just happen to watch on the nights they do that skit? It's not funny.

I'm assuming it's improvised, and it's only supposed to be funny because Fred is making that **** up on the spot? Because What he says is never that funny, or clever. It usually sounds like something a six year old would say. Hey... Let's shovel snow with a LEGO...

Pretty much every night Fred is there. It is beyond awful.
