NextImg:Late Night Is Impressed by the V.I.P. List at Jimmy Carter’s Funeral

Welcome to Best of Late Night, 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.

Very Important Presidents

Former President Jimmy Carter’s state funeral was held on Thursday, with President Biden, President-elect Donald J. Trump and three other former presidents — Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush — in attendance.

On “The Daily Show,” Desi Lydic noted how rare such a gathering was, adding that it was “even rarer to have Donald and Melania in the same room together. Kudos to President Carter!”

“All five members of the so-called ‘Presidents Club’ gathered today in Washington, D.C., for President Jimmy Carter’s state funeral. And it just goes to show you that, as a country, we really don’t have a type.” — SETH MEYERS

“The ceremony was a beautiful remembrance of a great American. It was also a rare gathering of everyone in the Marvel presidential universe.” — STEPHEN COLBERT

“Biden, Obama, Bush and Clinton were in the front row, while Trump sat in the back with an iPad and a bag of Cheerios.” — JIMMY FALLON

“A lot of people were surprised that Melania showed up because they thought Trump’s plus-one would be Elon Musk.” — JIMMY FALLON

“So yeah, it’s a seating chart so awkward that it probably had them asking ‘Is there any extra room in that coffin?’” — DESI LYDIC

“I don’t know how you measure the life of a man, whether through their personal accomplishments or the lives they touched, but if you measure a life by the V.I.P. guest list at your funeral, then Jimmy Carter was a [expletive] pimp!” — DESI LYDIC

The Punchiest Punchlines (Great-Grandbaby Edition)

“As wildfires still wreak havoc in Southern California, President Biden used a briefing on the fires to brag that he is now a great-grandfather. Even worse: When aides rushed him to leave, he said, ‘Hey, buddy, where’s the fire?’” — GREG GUTFELD

“You’re clearly a grandpa because you say whatever you want at any time with no filter whatsoever.” — SETH MEYERS

“President Biden said that his granddaughter gave birth to a ‘10-pound 4-ounce baby girl’ before correcting himself to say ‘baby boy.’ And already Republicans are accusing him of performing gender reassignment on minors.” — SETH MEYERS
