Late Night TV Hosts Announce Return Dates After WGA Strike Ends

Late-night might be back, but there’s still a few challenges.

The trio joined the late night show in 2021, with their popular shorts usually involved that week’s host and increasingly large budgets.

John Oliver was back at it again with Last Week Tonight on Max and threw some darts at frequent target Tucker Carlson. The former Fox News host caught some strays from the comedian amid a discussion on homeschooling.
