Quag-Myer

AITOOW who doesn't understand why Seth Myers is still (or ever was) on TV? It can only be explained by the disconnect NY media executives have with the rest of society. He's them. Weasel faced, elitist, liberal, self-absorbed and satisfied Millenials. He often brags about being the head writer at SNL. And he's proud of that. SNL, maybe, has two sketches that are passable each week (8 in total?). He has the audacity to believe that he was pitched things that couldn't satisfy him. What exactly was he saving us from? And if he was, then who does the hiring? His talk show has no interesting recurring bits. They are a nerds collection of Venn diagrams and New Yorker captions. Is this the Dick Cavett show?  He's a horrible interviewer. He's embarrassingly (hyper-Fallony) obsequious. He's smarmy and dismissive and self important about the rest of America. Why the pass on organ grinder monkeys? His hair (what's left of it) is Ed Grimly-like. His eyes are baggy. His run and stop onto his desk platform is gay. His bits with Fred Armison (a usually absent crutch/draw) are forced. His pleas of not being Jewish are transparent (don't reject me Middle America) and not believable. His band is weak and they have no rapport with him. The show is just unwatchable. I'd be happy that he was off SNL if they didn't replace him with an even more Millenial douche and a lipless hag. The skits weren't any better with him gone. I just don't understand what NBC is thinking. Even Fallon is nothing without Higgins. He's the only person with any comedic instincts at the network.

I forgot to mention his insufferable and self absorbed/socially unaware stories about his gay dog, bland family and cuckolding wife.
