Welcome to Late Night Roundup, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
Starting at the Top
Late night addressed the right-wing activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination on Thursday, with Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, Michael Kosta and Stephen Colbert all condemning politically motivated violence.
In a somber start to “Late Night,” Meyers called such violence “anathema to the highest ideals of this country. It corrodes us and threatens the very foundations of our democracy.”
He mentioned several recent attempts (some successful) on the lives of political figures, including “not one, but two assassination attempts against Donald Trump.”
“In a moment like this, it is the responsibility of all public figures to marshal their dignity and compassion and lead us to a calmer, more rational place. This effort cannot be one-sided, and it must start at the top.” — SETH MEYERS
Meyers didn’t call out Trump for failing to meet that standard, but Jimmy Kimmel did.
“And with all these terrible things happening, you would think that our president would at least make an attempt to bring us together, but he didn’t. President Obama did, President Biden did, Presidents Bush and Clinton did. President Trump did not. Instead, he blamed Democrats for their rhetoric.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“The man who told a crowd of supporters that maybe ‘the Second Amendment people’ should do something about Hillary Clinton. The man who said he wouldn’t mind if someone shot through the fake news media. The man who unleashed a mob on the Capitol and said Liz Cheney should ‘face nine barrels shooting at her’ for supporting his opponent blames the radical left for their rhetoric.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
On “The Daily Show,” Michael Kosta had a similar assessment of Trump, but he wondered whether over-the-top rhetoric was really the problem.
