Megan Vick Taylor Tomlinson didn’t imagine herself as a host when she first met with CBS about their “@Midnight” reboot last year. She assumed the filming schedule would interfere with her first love — stand-up — but it was worth taking the meeting to meet new people and maybe score some panelist appearances. But when the executives in charge revealed they’d create a filming schedule that would allow her to still perform comedy gigs on the weekends, an entirely new world opened up.
“I took this job because I wanted to develop new skills and grow as a person,” Tomlinson tells Variety while walking around her set. “I think I have definitely experienced that. I am able to work on a team of people that I really like, respect and enjoy.” Now, Tomlinson is months into hosting “After Midnight,” a panel comedy show modeled after the former Comedy Central series, which brings in comedians from various backgrounds to riff and comment on trending topics for arbitrary points and prizes.
It is not a sit-down interview talker for insomniacs to find out about new movie or TV releases. As a comedy nerd, Tomlinson relishes the chance to give fellow comedians a spotlight. “It’s mainly a platform for comedians, for people who are down to play and show off their comedic chops.
It’s silly and fun. It really feels like playing every night,” she says. “The format has kept the original’s full spirit alive, because everyone has jokes written and is prepared.
