Seth Meyers took over as the host of the Late Night show last night. There was some pressure going into the show as all his predecessors did well in hosting the show: David Letterman as the pioneer of the show was as innovative and unpredictable; Conan O'Brien was surreal and totally absurd; Jimmy Fallon was more of the goofy type who loved anything that is viral in YouTube. With the success of all these previous hosts, people were waiting to see what Meyers would bring to the table as the new host.

Meyers is no stranger to show business after having come off a long stint at Saturday Night Live. USA Today described his debut on Monday as "low-key" and free from mistakes. He played to his strengths of monologues and interviews. He opened with a standing monologue similar to a Weekend Update and then told a self-deprecating anecdote ("It's very hard to feel macho when you're holding a tiny dog while another man changes your wife's tire"). His first guests were former co-worker Amy Poehler and Joe Biden, whom he conversed with unscripted without pressing on politics.

The last host, Jimmy Fallon, had his strength primarily in online trending news, but was not as good as Meyers in guest interviews. Late Night followers are expecting Meyers to bring the witty and funny character from Saturday Night Live Weekend Update to his new show.

Aside from celebrity news and interviews, Meyers is also expected to delve into political comedy. People are expecting him to express his take on weird news as well as some serious political issues. However, according to NBC executives, they will give Meyers time to grow; they believe that it takes some time before he can take things to a different level. With Meyers as the new host, the flames of the battle for late night supremacy has been stoked yet again. Meyer is up against David Letterman's Late Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live! which was getting upwards of $125 million in ad revenue. In comparison, the last Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon got $70 million in ad revenue.
