Late Laughs

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert

Yesterday [Mar. 14], a Russian fighter jet collided with a U.S. drone. Even worse, after the collision, the Russian plane didn’t even leave a note on the windshield. Now our insurance is gonna go up.

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

Yesterday [Mar. 12] was Selection Sunday, where they announce the 68 teams in this year’s March Madness tournament. Yep, that’s exciting. That’s right. It starts at 68, then 32, then eventually down to one — just like the number of U.S. banks.

Tonight [Mar. 14], President Biden attended a big Democratic fundraiser in Las Vegas. Yep, not really the best timing for Biden. Yesterday, he assured us the banking system is safe, and 24 hours later, he rolled up in Vegas. He’s like, “Putting it all on black.” Anyway, long story short, Caesars Palace now owns Rhode Island.

Ikea has recalled thousands of mirrors because they could fall and cut people. Honestly, customers should have seen this coming because the name of the mirror is Fällüncütü.

Jimmy Kimmel Live!

According to the FBI, Americans lost $10.3 billion on internet scams last year, and that doesn’t even count those Trump digital trading

that you’re talking about a bank collapse proves it isn’t — that’s like going to a funeral and giving a eulogy about how Nana’s going to be fine.

Donald Trump is having another very bad week. It may be his last week as an unindicted man. Remember that perfect call he made asking the Georgia secretary of state to find him 11,000 votes? Well, apparently there’s another recording of another call ... one made to the Georgia Speaker of the House. A member of the grand jury reported hearing a second recording in which Trump tries to pressure the state Speaker to overturn the election. Basically, Trump tried to order the presidency over the phone, like it was a stuffed crust pizza.

Late Night With Seth Meyers

President Biden spoke this morning [Mar. 13] about Friday’s collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and reassured Americans the country’s financial system is safe. But remember, this is a guy whose whole financial system is definitely a coffee can on a high shelf. “See, the thing is, they never look up there.”

That’s right, President Biden reassured Americans the country’s financial system is safe. OK, I think the fact

President Biden signed an executive order today [Mar. 14] that increases background checks on gun purchases. From now on, gun dealers are gonna ask your first and last name.

President Biden spoke today [Mar. 15] in Las Vegas about health care. Oh, you mean that place where everyone smokes indoors and it’s cool to have 7 a.m. cocktails as long as you haven’t been to sleep yet? Yeah. Sure, health care in Vegas is a major priority.

The Late Late Show With James Corden

The Academy [Awards] tried to get people to learn more by flashing scannable QR codes on the screen. They even did it after the in memoriam section. Now, when you scan the QR code, you only have to watch two tasteful Dr. Pepper ads before seeing who else died last year.

With new concerns about Credit Suisse being the next bank to fall, the bank crisis might be heading over to Europe. You know it’s just going to backpack around, sleep in some hostels, see the sights ... it’s a gap year, is what it is.

Life is about to get a lot more complicated for twin basketball phenoms Jordan “J.B.” and Josh “Filthy” Bell.

(Amir O’Neil, “Madagascar: A Little Wild”), has always followed the same path. Trained by their dad, Chuck (Derek Luke, “The Purge”), a former NBA player himself, it’s no surprise that the boys have a solid future playing the game — that is, until J.B.’s interest pivots towards new girl Alexis (Skyla I’Lece, “P-Valley”). Tension mounts between the brothers, and it only grows stronger when their father’s health starts to fail. Will the boys be able to keep up with Chuck’s “basketball rules for life”?

“Jury Duty” - Season 1

All rise! Amazon Freevee’s comedy series, “Jury Duty,” premieres Friday, April 7. Follow the inner workings of the American court system through the eyes of one particular juror: real-life-person Ronald Gladden. This docu-style series follows Gladden through what he assumes to be a routine term of jury duty, except the other 11 law-abiding citizens serving as jurors are … actors, including James Marsden (“Sonic the Hedgehog,” 2020). The judge is an actor, too — in fact, everything about the case is fake, and unbeknownst to Gladden, who isn’t in on the joke, the proceedings have all been carefully orchestrated for the cameras. Created by Lee Eisenberg (“The Office”) and Gene Stupnitsky (“The Office”), this docu-style comedy boasts the talents of director Jake Szymanski (“Brooklyn Nine-Nine”) and writer Gene Stupnitsky (“The Office”), as well as showrunner Cody Heller (“Deadbeat”).
