The monologue jokes were mostly thin and the host seemed stiff delivering them early Tuesday.
But Seth Meyers seemed to soon gain control of his inaugural edition of "Late Night."
Part of his subsequent comfort level stemmed from his savvy choice of guests. Amy Poehler, his longtime pal and former "Weekend Update" deskmate on "Saturday Night Live" was the first guest of NBC's "Late Night with Seth Meyers."
His other guest: Vice President Joe Biden, who's a talk show all by himself.
Poehler joked that she and Biden now plan to make a film together called "Snakes on a Train." Then she declared that she was running for president in two years.
But when Meyers asked Biden what his own 2016 political plans might be, he sidestepped the question. He said he had meant to make a major announcement on the show, but changed his mind. As he explained to Meyers, "Tonight's YOUR night. So I hope you'll invite me back."
