Late Guys

Vanity Fair is spotlighting late night comedians, starting with a much-circulated group shot photo of Mssrs. Colbert, O'Brien, Noah, Corden, Kimmel, Oliver, Meyers, Wilmore, Fallon and Maher. The picture was probably shot in multiple places and on multiple coasts and then Photoshopped into looking like these guys were all happily in each others' presence. It does raise the question of why John Oliver, whose show airs at 8 PM, is a "late night host" but Chris Hardwick, who's on at Midnight most of the time and 11 PM at the moment, isn't.

Also, this may come as a shock to many but Carson Daly still has a show. In case anyone's amazed by this fact, he's been on since 2002.

Online are a couple of related articles — a profile of John Oliver, a Proust Questionnaire filled out by Seth Meyers and an essay by Conan O'Brien.
