Late Night 2019 1080p BluRay x264-OFT

Comedy legend Katherine Newbury has been the queen of American late night talk television for twenty-eight years. In her quest for perfection, she has ruled over her show with an iron fist, she demanding commitment and loyalty, and will fire people for the slightest hint of not being up to that standard. She treats her staff largely as dispensable things rather than people in not even knowing most of her writing staff by name or face in not having met most of them. In an unexpected visit to the set by the current network president Caroline Morton, Katherine learns that the network is thinking about replacing her in they feeling that her shtick is stale as witnessed by declining ratings over the past decade, something about which she was totally oblivious in her narcissism. She believes the entire fault lies at the feet of her writers, who she decides to meet for the first time. They include the most recent addition, Molly Patel, on this her first day. Molly is unaware that she was a diversity hire in Katherine being accused of being anti-female in her entire writing staff being white males, Katherine having directed head writer Brad to hire a woman. Molly, who had no writing or television experience, was the only applicant fitting the bill, with her being South Asian an extra benefit in killing two birds with one stone. Molly not only is thus a fish out of water but a black sheep in she trying to find her place in this, a crucial time for the show as the writers as a collective try to save the show and thus their jobs. This task will be difficult in Katherine resisting change, and the writers fearing going outside of the box that Katherine has built for them leading to an overall sense of complacency. Within this situation, Molly will discover some diversity in that sea of testosterone white, she butting heads with Tom Campbell, who likes to remind anyone who will listen that he writes the monologues and who, as a nepo hire years ago, wanted his own younger brother for Molly's job, while she makes a connection with Charlie Fain, an aspiring stand-up himself.
