Oliver's show will be based out of New York and the only references I've seen as to what the format will be is that one writer referred to it as "similar to the Daily Show" and that it would be airing on HBO on Sunday nights so as to not conflict with Stewart's show on Comedy Central.
Of course, HBO has a tendency to repeat programs throughout the week so does that mean they will only repeat Oliver's show on Fridays and Saturdays? I doubt it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Jeffries To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, February 17, 2014 2:02 PM Subject: Re: [TV orNotTV] Re: Jimmy Fallon Era Begins: Fallon Big Late Night Winner And you can add "@Midnight" to the LA list, although that show has a bias towards standups before anyone else. However, hipster chanteuse Neko Case was a panelist the other night and won the game, so anyone who is quick-witted theoretically can be booked on that show. Arsenio is also LA and as being scheduled exclusively in late-night should be counted. I'm assuming that John Oliver's show will be based in New York and although I haven't heard of an exact format, I would assume that there will be guests of some sort, either straight interview or panel.

Consider what's in NYC aside from "Tonight" and "Late Show": - Late Night - SNL - TDS - Colbert - All three major network morning shows - Kelly & Michael - Major studio operations for all major cable news outlets - SXM (including Howard Stern) - Olbermann (for those sports-inclined night owls) Contrast that with what's left in LA, apart from Kimmel/Conan/Ferguson: - All varieties of televised entertainment "news" (ET, Access Hollywood, Extra, etc.) - E! - Ellen (and other LA-produced syndies) - Real Time I'm sure I'm leaving shows/outlets off both lists, but it seems to me like that trekking out to NY won't be viewed as a worthless trip from a PR perspective. (Although I should ask my wife's cousin - she's a partner at PR house in Hollywood...)

Stars with something to promote who don't want to go back east are going to end up his show. And while I don't expect anything approaching a war, it will be interesting to see how the Late Show and Tonight share guests. -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
