Seth Meyers Warns Emmy Voters Not To Turn ‘Late Night’s ‘Corrections’ Into “‘The Wire’ Of Short-Form Digital Content” – Contenders TV: Docs, Unscripted & Variety

HBO’s The Wire never won an Emmy, was only nominated twice in the writing categories and never received a single nod in any of the major categories including acting.

Seth Meyers wants Emmy voters not to make another mistake like that when it comes to Corrections, the digital shortform spinoff of his NBC talk show Late Night with Seth Meyers.

Corrections has been nominated three times in the Outstanding Short Form Comedy, Drama or Variety Series category, losing out to Carpool Karoake: The Series and Only Murders in the Building: One Killer Question and not even being nominated the year Meyers’ friend Tim Robinson won with I Think You Should Leave.

“It’s a f*cking lock. I know you’re not supposed to say this, but I think there’s a real risk for Emmy voters,” Meyers joked during his panel at Deadline’s Contenders TV Documentary, Unscripted & Variety. “For Late Night, it’s an honor to be nominated, but Corrections should definitely win, and if you don’t vote for it, there’s this chance that 20 years from now, it’s like The Wire, where people are like, ‘You know that never won an Emmy?’ Am I saying that Corrections is The Wire of shortform digital content? Yeah, and I think anybody who watches both would say the same.”

Joking aside, Late Night with Seth Meyers also has a very reasonable chance to be Emmy-nominated in the main Outstanding Talk Series category.

Meyers spoke about addressing President Trump’s rebuke of him, after the Commander-in-Chief called him “Marble Mouth Meyers” and setting the tone for late-night comedy in these unsettling political times as well as reminiscing about bringing Keith Richards water during SNL50 and how pleased his wife was when The New York Times ran a headline that read: “Seth Meyers Isn’t As Nice As You Think He Is.”

Meyers added that he wanted this iteration of the show, compared to the 2016 iteration, to feel less “dark” and more “joyful.”

“Obviously the burden of this administration is heavier on a lot of other people more than it is on us, so it’s one foot in front of the other” he said. “We did have to reassess our approach. We knew that if we were tonally the exact same that we’d been in 2016, it would feel almost like a television show that was doing repeats when they should be doing live shows. We put a lot of talk into the tone. The whole world is trying to come [to terms with it] — not the whole world, obviously, I think there’s plenty of people who think this is going grandly, but not that sort of full fist-shaking resistance out of the gate, which felt like what 2016 had, because everybody had been caught flat-footed by the outcome of that election.”

Check back Monday for the panel video.
