Seth Meyers fears for the future of his late-night TV talk-show.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 51-year-old comedian has hosted Late Night with Seth Meyers for the last 11 years – but he doubts whether he has much control over the show’s future, following the recent cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asked if he fears the show’s end, Seth told the Armchair Expert podcast: “I do. I mean, only because it is such a time we’re living in, as far as the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There is this weird thing that I feel like I shifted from fearing that I wouldn’t be good enough. And now my fear is weirdly more outside of my control, which is … just at some point, the ecosystem might not support [late night].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I guess that’s better than thinking it’s your fault, but it is weird to not feel any control over it.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seth has also developed a philosophical attitude towards his TV career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He explained: “I sometimes take stock of, oh, this isn’t the best time to be doing what I’m doing, but at least I got in. And so, I sometimes think, alright, I think the body of my work matters enough that the world knows Seth Meyers in a way that I’m happy with … I’ve taken my opportunity to build a thing. I know what it means, and I think other people know what it means. So I’m happy about that.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Stephen Colbert announced the axing of The Late Show on July 17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 61-year-old comedian confirmed that CBS had pulled the plug on his nightly talk show, with the final episode set to air in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: “Before we start the show, I want to let you know something that I found out just last night. Next year will be our last season, the network will be ending The Late Show in May.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stephen – who replaced David Letterman at the helm in 2015 – added: “I\u2019m not being replaced. This is all just going away. I do want to say that the folks at CBS have been great partners \u2026 And I\u2019m grateful to the audience, you, who have joined us every night, in here, out there, and all around the world.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
