Welcome to Late Night Roundup, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
‘Dozes Malone’
President Trump was one of several celebrities in attendance at Game 3 of the NBA finals on Monday in New York City, where he was seen appearing to doze off on camera.
Jimmy Kimmel ribbed Trump on Tuesday, saying that he made history, becoming “the first sitting president to shut down a major United States city so he could take a nap in front of a sold-out crowd at the NBA finals.”
“There’s Dozes Malone, who spent who-knows-how-many million taxpayer dollars to get there, and he goes out like a light.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Who can fall asleep during the N.B.A. finals at Madison Square Garden? Do you know how out of it you have to be? I hope Joe Biden was watching this and laughing his [expletive] off last night.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Last night, President Trump slept at Madison Square Garden for Game 3 of the N.B.A. finals, and the Knicks fans are blaming him for the team’s loss. Trump doesn’t want to be blamed, so today he called the N.B.A. and demanded they ‘find’ five more points for the Knicks.” — JIMMY FALLON
“Sir, you can’t sleep through the game. You’re the president, not Game 3 referee Marc Davis. ” — DESI LYDIC
The Punchiest Punchlines (Blame Game Edition)
“Last night was Game 3 of the N.B.A. finals. And I know, I know, the Knicks’ loss was hard on New Yorkers, but let’s take the high road, OK? And acknowledge the M.V.P. who won it for the Spurs: Game 3 referee Marc Davis.” — DESI LYDIC
“Dude, what the hell was that? I mean, don’t get me wrong: I think it’s great that the N.B.A. let someone watch their first game ever right from the court. But you do realize the ‘b’ in ‘b-ball’ doesn’t stand for blind bald [expletive], right?” — DESI LYDIC
“They had a 13-game win streak until Trump showed up. Basically, he did to the Knicks last night what he’s going to do to Republicans in Congress come November — he hit them with a jinx.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“Do you know what it means to have every single person in New York booing you? Even a guy taking a [expletive] on the subway will have one New Yorker cheering him on.” — DESI LYDIC
“[imitating Trump] I didn’t hear any booing, I was asleep for most of the game.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
