'I don't know what else to do,' Samantha Bee (iamsambee) shared when asked why she opted to offer new content while in quarantine: 'Making comedy is the only tool I have in my toolbox. If I knew how to make ventilators, believe me, I'd pivot to that.'
David Spade, who debuted hisseries this week, remarked on how "no one talked to each other" about putting out in-isolation content, but over the course of the week it's become the new normal for late night.. Everyone is picking their own way — do they want the kids involved or not. I'm doing a monologue. People are doing bits outside or inside. There's no rules and it's kind of fun to watch.
Each night the series will spotlight a different charity, with Feeding America and Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS receiving attention so far. Bee commended her husband, comedian Jason Jones, for being on deck to help with the show. "I am very lucky to be married to, and therefore quarantined with, an incredible television producer and director. We have been collaborators since the early days of our relationship, so we are singularly equipped to 'cowboy it' in our woodshed. That sounds dirty, because it is."
The host emphasized that safety for his staff was incredibly important — that's why he chose to film at home and send content to others, also working from home, to finalize.
