Why Late Night With Seth Meyers Is Canceled For Rest Of The Week

The talk show host told fans via Twitter that he will be shutting down production, stating, “After negative tests Monday and Tuesday I tested positive for COVID this morning. Canceling shows the rest of this week. Apologies to our scheduled guests and loyal viewers!” Meyers isn’t the only late night host that got hit with the wrath that is COVID-19. Jimmy Kimmel and fellow late-night colleague Stephen Colbert were also forced to push back shows after getting infected. Although, like Meyers, that wasn’t the only time Kimmel came down with the virus. Later that same month, Kimmel was forced to sit out a few more shows, leaving John Mulaney and Andy Samberg to guest host Jimmy Kimmel Live! in his place.  “I’m such a positive person, I tested positive AGAIN. I am feeling fine,” he tweeted. “The great John @Mulaney & Andy Samberg @TheLonelyIsland have graciously agreed to host @JimmyKimmelLive for me tomorrow.“Colbert himself also tested positive back in April, along with a second time in May.  Seems like these late night hosts can’t catch a break! Next, check out five things you didn’t know about Seth Meyers.
