Seth Meyers showed support for his late night comrade Jimmy Kimmel in the first episode of Late Night since news that ABC was shelving Jimmy Kimmel Live! indefinitely. Meyers, 51, discussed ABC's decision - which was announced on Wednesday, September 17 - during his "A Closer Look" segment on the Thursday, September 18, episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers. Before directly addressing the move, Meyers began by poking fun at his own history with President Donald Trump. "I just want to say before we get started here, that I've always admired and respected Mr. Trump," Meyers said.
