RANKED: All 13 late-night shows from best to worst

Published by Business Insider on Tue, 08 Dec 2015


The late-night world is full of new and new-ish players.When you first check the internet in the morning, you might come across a clip of John Oliver picking apart athorny topic in his dry comedic style on his HBO show. Or Stephen Colbert, who took over from David Letterman earlier this year, poking gleeful fun at Donald Trump. Or Jimmy Fallon playing a game with Adele. Soon "Daily Show" alum Samantha Bee will join the fray with her own show debuting next year.But aside from the viral clips, which of these shows is actually worth your time' After giving some hosts time to settle into their new gigs and build a name against the veterans, Business Insider watched all the current major late-night shows on the air and assessed the best and worst of the pack.Here's what we found, ranked starting from the worst:SEE ALSO:9 TV shows you're not watching that you should be13. "The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore" (Comedy Central)Coming right after "The Daily Show," Wilmore's "Nightly Show" has an even more obvious liberal bent to its satire. Wilmore is willing to get vicious in attacking subjects, especially, of course, Republicans whenever they seem to misspeak. But he brings more authority and intelligence to this mockey than Noah, and deserves more ratings than he's getting. The big problem for "The Nightly Show" is the latter roundtable section, a complete misfire in which multiple guests compete for time and seem to reiterate what's already been said. With a little revamping, Wilmore's show could be much improved.12. "Last Call with Carson Daly" (NBC)Carson Daly's very late offering, "Last Call," feels like thegig that best fits the former '90s MTV V.J. He's come out of his shell on "The Voice" and shows hischipper side in the morning for "Today's" Orange Room. But "Last Call" allows him to use strange camera angles,don his leather jacket, and give bands some exposure. From performances to interviews, the show plays with artsy technique and effects. It's not for everyone, but that's probably why it's at 1:35 a.m.11. "Late Night with Seth Meyers" (NBC)Seth Meyers went into the "Late Night" gig with the force of "Saturday Night Live" behind him. Lorne Michaels produces the talk show, too. If you believe that Meyers was the best news reader of recent "SNL" history, then you probably get a kick out of seeing him behind the desk for the show's first half. That said, Meyers isn't the smoothest interviewer. He tends to wind up way too much before pitching his guests a question. Buthe's quickas a whipwhen it comes to returning with a joke.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
