[ cheers and applause ] ladies and gentlemen, seth meyers! >> seth: good evening, everybody. i'm seth meyers, this is "late how is everybody doing tonight? [ cheers and applause ] that is great to hear. in that case, let's get to the news.

a speech today to try to stop donald trump from securing the republican nomination. and in a related story, a japanese soldier fired his rifle at godzilla. [ laughter ] that's not enough to stop him. mitt romney gave a speech at the university of utah this morning, critical of donald trump. and in it, he said trump's promises are as worthless as the degree from trump university. then romney dropped the mic and it broke his toe. [ laughter ] ben carson sat out tonight's 11th republican debate and kind of the first ten. [ laughter ] chris christie was asked today about his vacant expression during donald trump's super tuesday victory speech, and told reporters, "i wasn't anything other than happy." well, if that expression means you're happy, then my wife was thrilled when i forgot her birthday.

[ cheers and applause ] i'm so sorry. a new study shows that the rate of unintended pregnancies in the u.s. has dropped by 18%. the drop is attributed to a new incredibly effective contraceptive. [ laughter ] no, thank you. no. i'm fine. i don't want a drink. thank you, though. a farm in ohio has the words "no trump" written so large in cow manure, that it could be seen by overhead planes. the craziest part? no one asked the cow to do that. [ laughter ] even cows know. [ cheers and applause ] x-rated website pornhub has revealed america's most popular porn search term to be "lesbian." while the most popular google search is "how to clear your browser history." ikea has announced it's

material grown from mushrooms, which could replace styrofoam. plus, if you eat the mushrooms the ikea directions start to make sense. [ laughter ] oh, yeah, all right. here we go. i need to put the flurgen in the gurgen. [ applause ] nasa estimates that during his year in space, astronaut scott kelly drank almost 200 gallons of water filtered from his own urine and sweat, and then on the last day, he found all the fiji bottles he brought with him. [ laughter ] no! this is urine! why? and finally, according to recent surveys, 15% of americans have admitted to cooking in the nude. unfortunately, most of them work at chipotle. [ cheers and applause ] ladies and gentlemen we have a great show for you tonight. from the new film "whiskey, tango, foxtrot," our good friend, tina fey is back on the

[ cheers and applause ] he is the star of fox's "grandfathered," and netflix's "fuller house," john stamos is at the show tonight. [ cheers and applause ] and another old colleague of mine, one of the stars of "snl," jay pharaoh is on the show for the very first time tonight. [ cheers and applause ] i'm looking forward to talking to him. but before we get to that, yesterday, the supreme court heard oral arguments in what could be the most important abortion case in 20 years. for more on this, it's time for "a closer look." [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: okay, so the first thing to know is that thanks to roe v. wade, women have a constitutional right to abortion in america. but over the last 20 years, that right has been under attack by anti-abortion forces, who think that even if they can't make abortion illegal, they can make getting one more difficult. in fact, since roe v. wade in 1973, states have enacted 1,074 abortion restrictions.

enacted just since 2010. the only thing that increased more than abortion restrictions in the last five years are new emojis and amount you hear bruno mars at the gym. now an example of one of these restrictions is a new law passed in kentucky this month requiring women to have a medical consultation 24 hours before having an abortion. now the idea that you have to get a consultation before exercising a fundamental constitutional right seems demeaning and sexist to many, including kentucky state lawmaker, mary lou marzian, who responded by proposing a bill that would require men to quote, "have two doctor visits and provide a signed and dated letter from their spouses providing consent before they could obtain erectile dysfunction drugs like viagra." which is fantastic. honey, will you write me a note for viagra? um, actually, i wanted to do some reading this weekend, so no. [ laughter ] so those kind of restrictions have become commonplace over the last five years, and yesterday, the supreme court heard

law in texas that is pretty obviously aimed at trying to curb access to abortion. >> it requires that abortions take place in very expensive facilities known as ambulatory surgical centers. it also requires all abortion providers have admitting privileges at local hospitals. the end result in texas is that you have 5.4 million women of reproductive age who may be left with only ten abortion clinics. >> seth: ten clinics for 5.4 million women. and making matters worse, the waiting rooms just have one "us weekly" from like 1982. before stars were like us. now texas lawmakers claim the new rules are just to protect women's health and safety, but they're not. these lawmakers care about safety the way olive garden cares about portion control, not at all. [ laughter ] as justice elena kagan pointed out yesterday, "there are many procedures that are much higher risk. colonoscopies, liposuctions, we could go on and on. and of course the reason

like abortions is that all men have, and some even are ass [ bleep ]." [ laughter ] but kagan was joined by the other two female justices in hammering away at texas' argument that texas is doing this for the benefit of women. justice sonia sotomayor pointed out that one of the undue burdens in the is law this. currently, for a nonsurgical abortion, a woman can take two prescribed pills at home. but if the law stands, she has to travel 200 miles or pay for a hotel to get those two days of treatment. driving 200 miles to do something you can do at home. imagine the outrage if you told men they had to go to albany to masturbate? and meet with a counselor 24 hours ahead of time. who are you going to fantasize about? oh, from the progressive ads? [ laughter ] in the end, it was justice ruth bader ginsburg who, when the lawyers representing texas continued to claim that the regulations were pro-women's health, cut to the chase and pointed out that, quote, "a woman has the fundamental right to make this choice for herself, but for now, the choice is in

anthony kennedy," who is the swing vote in this case. a four-four vote mean the texas law stands and women in texas will continue to face hurdles to get health care, which isn't right. it shouldn't be harder for women to access health care than to access "uptown funk." this has been "a closer look." [ cheers and applause ] we'll be right back with more "late night." [ cheers and applause ] he's asleep. i've got the gelato. is that ice cream? no, it's, uh breyers gelato indulgences. it looks like ice cream. it's not. can i have some? you really wouldn't like it. it's got caramel and crunchy stuff. i like caramel and crunchy stuff. it's not for kids. i'm a grown-up. breyers gelato indulgences. creamy gelato, rich caramel, topped with crunchy curls it's way beyond ice cream. hey there, tiny... what beer we drinkin'?

[ cheers and applause ] also, he's been sitting in all week on drums, from the black keys patrick carney is with us. [ cheers and applause ] it has been an honor, patrick. please come back anytime. now, do you guys know what a casserole is? a casserole is a meal where you throw a bunch of different kinds of foods in a dish and you sort of cook it up. and what you get is what you get. the reason i bring this up is we here at "late night", we come up with tons of different ideas all the time for the show. and many of them aren't quite enough to be a full sketch, a full meal, if you will. so instead of just discarding all those ideas we thought we'd throw them together, casserole style in a segment we call "late

[ applause ] >> seth: all right, first up, one of our writers thought instead of showing celebrities caught without their make up, it would be funny to show celebrities caught with their make up. in a segment cleverly titled, "celebrities caught with their make up." okay, let's check out the first celebrity. looks like we caught this hollywood star wearing make up. uh-oh. [ light laughter ] that was celebrities caught with their make up. [ applause ] not enough for a full sketch, but a fine, a fine piece of writing. [ light laughter ] have you heard of gaydar? great. well, gaydar is when an individual is able to look at a person and know if they are gay or not. so, here's the premise, what if american supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg had really good gaydar?

popular new "late night" character, ruth gaydar ginsburg. [ light laughter ] gay. [ light laughter ] or not gay? not gay. [ light laughter ] gay. gay, gay, gay. [ light laughter ] all right. there's something there. there's something there. that might be better than casserole. [ applause ] all right. you guys heard of the word a day calendars? who's got one? great. okay. [ light laughter ] one of my writers comes to me and says what would it be like instead of a word a day if it was a sound a day calendar. it's a calendar where instead of learning new words you get to learn new sounds. [ light laughter ] let's take a look or rather a listen. [ glass shatters ] that's shattering glass.

[ thump ] that was a tub of potato salad hitting the floor. [ light laughter ] see what's up next. [ creak ] [ moo ] you got it, a tree falling on to a cow. [ laughter ] you know what? we don't have time for this. let's rip through a bunch of them.

[ sharp whistle ] [ cartoon buzz ] [ cartoon stretch ] [ pie splat ] [ cartoon whiplash ] of these. [ creak ] [ moo ] all right, let's just do one more. [ wailing ] that's the sound of americans on the day of trump's inauguration. [ cheers and applause ]

pretty good casserole here you guys. you guys been paying attention to the debates? great. real quick, just because i didn't feel like it. how many of you had a word a day calendar? great. okay. so. [ light laughter ] if you were watching the presidential debates, what happens before every presidential debate the candidates, they get a tour of the stage. it's explained to them how the candidates are going to work. and they often show -- the networks often show that footage without the sound. so you can't hear what they are actually saying. well our writers are the best writers. [ light laughter ] have dubbed over the clips with the dialog they imagine is being said. let's take a look. we'll start with john kasich. >> now, governor this is your podium. you'll be standing behind it. there will be people over there, audience members, they're in the audience. also the people to your left. my left and your left. and then you'll talk to those people during the debates other candidates will talk to people

yeah, they're in the center. >> did you tell him about the center? [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: that's good. you know what? that's so good, let's take a look at one with jeb bush. >> okay, governor, so, what we have here -- what? >> is this water down here? [ laughter ] love water. water is funny. >> me too. >> everybody drinks it. everybody drinks water. [ light laughter ] >> that's true. that's true. >> should i use that as a joke in the debate? i think it might kill. >> uh, governor, i'm not sure -- >> pick it up and go -- ah, this is why i'm losing. >> seth: very nice. [ applause ] very nice. all right. that goes right into the casserole. alright. no idea. i cannot stress, no idea is too strange for "late night casserole" and that will become abundantly clear when you see our next and final piece. one of our writers, conner o'malley, he's a big fan of charlie rose, big fan.

of charlie rose. here he is, connor o'malley doing an interpretive dance to the theme music from charlie rose. [ light laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: that is a delicious casserole. we'll be right back with more

the lady's locker room. it was a very confusing way and so i was like, oh i'm so sorry, this is actually the lady's locker room. and then the part of the couple that i thought was the gentleman look at me and said "i got [ bleep ]." >> seth: okay. [ laughter ] that's a rough thing to hear. >> yeah. i was like, it was a gray buzz cut, basketball shorts. like it was an honest mistake. but i felt so bad. that then i proceeded to deeply over compensate. >> seth: oh no. [ laughter ] >> and then i was like oh no, and i'm so sorry. i kept trying to like engage with this couple who weren't interested in talking to me. they were like trying to figure out, they were like, how do we do these lockers? and i was like what you do is -- you just have to set it to zero. and they were like, all right. they were right next to me in the locker room. i'm not prejudice in that way at all. i wanted them to know it was an honest mistake. then i found myself taking off my bathing suit at them. [ laughter ]

i just was like when would you ever -- you are in a locker room. turn around, you are taking your bathing suit off. but i just wanted them to like me so bad. [ laughter ] >> seth: that's still the way you think to make people like you. >> i know and it never works. [ laughter ] >> seth: you need to have better self-esteem. you've accomplished so much. it's not about just taking your bathing suit off in front of people. >> at them. [ laughter ] but if they see this again i'm so sorry. >> seth: we were talking backstage. your kids now, your daughters are 10 and four. >> seth: i'm about to have my >> congratulations. >> seth: thank you so much. [ cheers ] you were saying -- i'm saying i can't wait to see your movie and you told me that i'm never going to see it now -- >> the next movie you see is going to be "kung fu panda 4." [ laughter ] you're never see it. >> seth: never going to see another adult movie ever again. but 10 and four, are those fun ages? >> very sweet, very sweet. they are a nice distance apart. they don't fight too much. and the little one is getting to four is a very sweet age, very affectionate. when i go leave to go to work in the morning they're like no, i want one more, one more kiss and

and she'll chases me to the door. and then i'm going down the elevator and you hear her going like, i love you, i love you so much. >> seth: aww. >> and my husband goes where she goes i love you, i love you so much. and it's just like so, so lovely. then the other day, i heard her saying it to her poop going down the toilet. [ laughter ] literally the same exact line. she goes, bye, poopy, i love you, i love you so much. [ laughter ] fair enough. [ light laughter ] fair enough. >> seth: your husband jeff richman, a fantastic musician. >> yes. >> seth: are the kids musically inclined? >> i think they are. certainly more than i am. i think they have a little bit of his skills. they play some instruments already. >> seth: you're somewhat musical. >> i'm okay. we did a benefit recently. we did this benefit for lincoln center where we got a bunch of "snl" people and then some singers to sing this thing. we are all rehearsing, singing these songs. and i had to sing a three-part harmony thing with kate mckinnon and cecily stong who are good

i was practicing at home one day. and i was like oh, and my 10-year-old was like what are you working on? i said, oh, i'm singing the high part. so you know i have to practice a lot. and she just like deadeye looked at me and she goes, do you think that's a good idea? [ laughter ] for you to have the high part? should you have the high part? i was like, alright, daddy's little girl get out of my face. >> seth: i like that your 10-year-old is cutting and the 4-year-old is just like friendly to poop. >> friendly to poop. [ light laughter ] >> seth: very far apart. >> i think i'm doing a great job. [ light laughter ] >> seth: so we were talking backstage about challenge coins. i want you to explain this to me. >> yeah, so is cool. because in this movie, we got to meet a lot of great air force people. and some people who were really air force people i think we dress like marines in the movie. they have this thing called challenge coins. which is officers in the military, if they want to give a thank you to someone below them they give them these coins of their rank. and so these guys when they go out, if they go out to a bar, at the end of the week or whatever. people pull out their challenge coins. whoever had the highest ranking challenge coin drinks for free. >> seth: and so it's not their rank. somebody had to give it to them.

somebody had to hand it down. so if you are a general, you can give it to somebody beneath you. and then they can be like i have a general, what do you got? and so we tried to get some as a thank you to the people that helped us with the movie. we got some and apparently i think the highest ranking you can get, i think is actually first lady. we asked for some presidential ones, which is like the second highest. they sent me one as well. i got one for the guy who helped us but then i go one so i have a presidential coin. so i won a free drink. >> seth: that's great and that is so good because i know you. you are the biggest booze hound on earth. [ laughter ] >> right, i'm going to definitely always be like, does it work for nachos? [ laughter ] what about mini pizzas? but i was thinking, we should make these for comedy. we should have comedy challenge coins. >> seth: so the highest ranked comedian? >> yeah, you're in the bar and you're like. i got a chris rock. >> seth: i drink for free. [ light laughter ]

[ applause ] >> seth: that's a very high one. well thank you so much for being here. >> thank you for having me. >> seth: i will buy you a drink anytime. >> you take that, you drink for free. >> seth: i'm going to buy you a drink. you are saying that because i drink more than you.

[ laughter ] >> seth: ol' dirty bachelor is not bad. >> yeah. not bad right. >> seth: there you go. all right, now we got it. >> o.d.b. >> seth: it's late, though. you can't change the title now. so i wanna -- and also you work with the baby on the show is twins, right? >> yeah, that's right. >> seth: you've done that before. you've done the twin thing. >> i made a couple twins very wealthy a long time ago. >> seth: yeah. [ laughter ] >> and we're gonna do it again. >> seth: i hope these young twins are smart enough to know that you're the gravy train for twins who want to make cash. >> i made them sign a deal that if we ever do a reunion of "grandfathered" 20 years later, they have to be on it. >> seth: okay. that's good. [ cheers and applause ] that's the way to do it. so, i want to talk about "fuller house," congratulations. >> thank you. >> seth: already picked up for another season.

>> seth: did -- what made you decide, not just you, but everybody. like what -- or i guess you personally to go back to it again? >> i felt enough time went by. and i was -- i spent a lot of time in the theatre out here. very proud of, you know, a good theatre career. >> seth: mm-hmm. >> i mean, leaving the show, i loved it, but i felt like i really need to do something other than, you know, say, "have mercy" and what ever that was about. so i did "er" for years and, you know, and i finally felt, "okay, i've done enough stuff. it's time to go back to that." >> seth: had you -- when was the last time you watched it before you went back to it? >> never. >> seth: really? did you watch it when it aired? >> no, we did -- you know, about six, seven years ago jeff franklin, the original creator, and myself we got together and said let's do a spinoff. everybody wants, you know, something with the show. so, i watched the pilot. it was pretty funny. you know? >> seth: yeah. i'm glad you liked it. [ laughter ] >> it was good, yeah. that's about it. and we thought it was funny 'cause the baby was, you know, messed her diapers. you'll have this. when's your -- when are you due? >> seth: soon. like two months. >> can your baby act? do you know? >> seth: we don't know yet. >> have you checked it? [ laughter ]

sonogram, i just yell out characters. >> right and she does them, yeah. >> seth: and it hasn't anything yet. >> nothing. oh, yeah. right. >> seth: just a lump. >> if she's good, send her over, we'll make her money. >> seth: okay. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> seth: now the show, always beloved. obviously successful, hugely successful. maybe "full house," maybe safe to say never been a critical darling. >> what's the opposite of darling? [ laughter ] >> seth: okay. now, i bring this up because we were talking back stage "fuller house," and again, a success, renewed for another season. >> right. >> seth: there have been some mean reviews. >> it was funny. when it first came out -- and i was nervous about doing this again because, you know, it's so beloved as you say and i didn't wanna disappoint people. so i thought it turned out well and people seemed to like it. and i read a couple nice reviews. but then there were these -- and i have nothing against reviewers. they've given great reviews. "grandfathered," you know, got love letters. but these were so sort of whacky. and they're real. we were talking about them. did you -- >> seth: yeah, yeah. we have here -- i want you to be able to look at them as well. >> all right. >> seth: 'cause these are actual -- >> i'm not a grandfather. [ laughter ] >> seth: do you want -- the "hollywood reporter." do you want me to read it? >> yeah. yeah.

said, "it's doubtful that there will be a more painful 2016 tv episode than the 'fuller house' pilot." [ audience boos ] >> i mean, he was watching -- he was being mauled by a bear when he watched that. >> seth: you think that was -- >> "the revenant." >> seth: and then he was tying it to that. >> right. >> seth: yeah. >> you'll love episode two, daniel. [ laughter ] >> seth: right. the pilot -- >> of course -- >> seth: i mean if the pilots painful i just said enough. >> yeah. i mean it's the pilot. i mean, how [ bleep ] rude, right? [ laughter ] >> seth: yeah, that's really rude. "washington post" said there's a point where -- >> give the guy's name, by the way. you're missing the name. >> seth: all right, hank stuever. >> okay. [ laughter ] right, hank. >> doesn't matter. [ laughter ] >> seth: "there's a point where nostalgia becomes more like necrophilia and 'fuller house' immediately crosses that line." that's pretty good, right? >> you got -- raise your hand. do you know what necrophilia is? do we have to explain it to them? >> seth: it means you have sex with a dead body. [ laughter ] >> i mean, how, i mean, that's what it means. like -- like -- >> seth: he wrote that about kid's show. this is a family show. >> is necrophilia if you get screwed by a dead magazine?

>> seth: that might be what happened. >> oh, come on. that's easy compared to -- that's a baby, to having sex with dead corpse. >> the "a.v. club" was nice, though. >> the "a.v. club?" what did they say? >> seth: the "a.v. club" was nice. >> yeah. >> seth: joshua alston said, "netflix's 'fuller house' is like a porn parody without the porn." [ laughter ] >> what is that? i mean what -- >> seth: it's a nice turn of the phrase. >> no, it's not nice. there actually, there's a real porn -- i shouldn't say this. >> seth: is there? >> there's a real porn that just came out. it's called -- [ whispers ] >> seth:"full of holes?" >> hey, woah! [ laughter ] my hand to god. and it's really very specific with the catch phrases. >> seth: yeah. >> i think there's a lot of -- >> seth: well, look if you're watching a porn parody you want the fun of "full house." >> i binge watched that. [ laughter ] >> you know how you're supposed to binge watch these things. >> seth: yeah. "new york times." >> what's the guys name? >> seth: james poniewozik. >> okay. >> seth: "the series begins as a sitcom family reunion.

dated, and maudlin reminder of the ceaseless march of time in your inevitable demise." [ laughter ] >> would you -- like -- >> seth: it's really, look, so he liked it. [ laughter ] >> okay, good. >> seth: that one, that's a -- of these, he liked it the most. >> right. james, it's "fuller house," not "room" for god sakes. but those are -- those would be like, you would write those as a parody, right? those they are real people. >> anyway, you know what, the fans loved this show. and after five days, it was released only four, five days netflix said let's do a second season. >> so i thank the fans for that. >> seth: where is -- speaking of the fans. [ cheers and applause ] speaking of fans where is the craziest place you have run into a "full house" fan in your career? >> there he is, on the drums, right there. [ laughter ] >> seth: just today? >> yep. >> seth: great. >> patrick, tell the story. one day they were doing a new album and he was doing an interview, he was walking out, and they said, "what's new on the new album?" and he said, "john stamos is playing drums." and they believed him. and that went out that i was playing for the black keys. >> seth: wow. >> right.

our records might be better if you played. [ laughter ] >> no, i doubt it. i doubt it. >> seth: well, congratulations on everything. >> thank you. >> seth: congratulations on continuing this show and your new show as well. it's always so lovely to see you. >> thank you. >> seth: now give it up for john stamos, everybody.
