The Phantom of After Midnight Won Late Night This Week
Briefly

The article begins by wishing a speedy recovery to Guillermo Rodriguez, Jimmy Kimmel's sidekick, following his foot injury. It humorously suggests that major events like the Met Gala should be postponed without his presence. It further praises John Lutz's sketch on Late Night with Seth Meyers that effectively portrays the conflicting views of critics. The article highlights Jimmy Fallon's entertaining segment featuring golden-retriever puppies as a unique promotional strategy for the Kentucky Derby. Lastly, it commends Jon Stewart's clever use of prop comedy on The Daily Show to capture the aging effects of the Trump administration's first hundred days.
"When prop comedy works, it works. Jon Stewart starting Monday's Daily Show in a long, Rip Van Winkle-ass beard was the correct way to illustrate how much these first hundred days of Trump 2.0 have aged us all."
"There’s no point doing a red carpet if Guillermo isn’t there feeding people tequila shots, okay?"
