Last night we watched the premier of The Voice (great as usual) and 'Late Night with Seth Meyers'. I found the latter stale and predictable, and sometimes just plain awkward to watch. The only bit that seemed fresh and enjoyable was his anecdote about (failing to) change a tire, and if he's to succeed I think that's where he has to put his emphasis, on 'everyman'/'familyman' comedy. Just MHO.
We also watched "The Awful Truth", the GREAT 1937 screwball comedy starring Cary Grant and Irene Dunne. LOL - and risque - even seventy seven years later. For the record Irene Dunne, in my vernacular, "crumples me". That face, that body, the voice; hell, even her faith (Catholic) her fidelity (married only once, and for life) and her politics (Republican). What an absolute Eleven on a scale of 1 to 10.
