    Seth was right about Henry Winkler having a particular kind of energy. And this was a fantastic interview where it just flowed out. Credit to Seth. I watched Winkler's interview with Colbert the other day, and it felt like Colbert didn't identify his energy very well. Every question/answer felt truncated. Whereas Seth always listens and lets the guest to do the talking, and quips in at just the right time. I guess it's partially thanks to his improv skills that he's able to do that so well. Seth's a great interviewer and is, frankly, underrated.

      I haven't watched colbert in about 4 years. Got sick of the politics and he became too annoying of a liberal with some of the guests he had on. I preferred The Colbert Report. Now I think he's enjoying his new level of status and wealth with Hollywood elites

    Oh my gosh, Henry Winkler! My mom and I saw him in real life at the 2023 Chicago Fan Expo. I told him I was impressed with how much time he makes to act in films, television shows and cartoons, and write books for kids. I also told him I liked watching him travel around the world with William Shatner and Jeff Dye in Better Late Than Never, and hearing him perform Smiley's voice in Reindeer in Here. Arthur Fonzarelli may have jumped the shark, but Henry Winkler's acting career certainly has not.
