LATE SHOW HOSTS KEEPING BUSY.

The late-night lineup was officially on hiatus this week amid widespread social distancing efforts. But The Late Show host Stephen Colbert surprised fans with a special edition hosted from his bathtub. While his fellow hosts were relegated to Youtube, Colbert’s bathtub address set the tone for a week of remote check-ins from the likes of Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel,

Trevor Noah and more. Here’s how the week went:

1 THEY TWEAKED THEIR TITLES

“You’re watching a very special social distancing edition of The Late Show. I call it The Lather Show With Scrubbin’ Colbert,”

he told viewers from his tub.

Fallon hosted The Tonight Show: Home Edition.

Trevor Noah had The Daily Social Distancing Show. David Spade offered Lights Out:

Live From the Bunker.

Full Frontal fans got Beeing at

Home With Samantha Bee.

2 THEY CRACKED JOKES ABOUT SOCIAL DISTANCING

“Way ahead of you,” Colbert riffed. “I have been avoiding human

contact since before it was cool.”

“I’m doing the show from home for two reasons,” Fallon said, “first, to slow the spread of coronavirus, second, so I can write

off my real estate taxes.”

“Please don’t post pictures of your child’s daily schedule,” Kimmel asked. “It makes the rest of us who are letting their kids play

on the ipad all day feel bad.”

“600 inmates were released from prisons to stop the spread of the virus,” Spade said.

“Several promised not to rob any store

that had more than 50 people.”

3 THEY NOTED THE ABSURDITY OF IT

“We are basically living through a disaster movie in which the president is played by

Gary Busey,” Kimmel joked.

“I’m just hanging out at my house fully made up,” Bee said as she emerged from a wood shed for

a social distancing monologue.

4 THEY PUT THEIR FAMILIES TO WORK

Fallon told viewers his wife, film producer Nancy

Juvonen, was serving as his camera operator.

Kimmel’s segments had an adorable intro designed by his daughter, who hummed a short tune as hand-drawn pictures of her father

displayed on the screen.

Bee’s husband, Jason Jones, made a vocal cameo that found him arguing with his wife over what constituted a pun after Bee’s hand-washing tutorial turned into a bit about “washing your

hams.”

5 THEY HOSTED SPECIAL GUESTS

One of Noah’s virtual visits was with Roy Wood Jr., who noted that Tom Hanks and Idris Elba had tested positive, and concluded “if there’s ever a time to confirm whether or not you’re an A-list

celebrity, this is it.”
