Outstanding Variety Talk Series

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. All the shows every year we fly our staff here, and we put them in the worst seats in the building to send a mixed message. So, thank you to our staff. We are incredibly proud of you. Thank you. On behalf everyone in the room, I would like to thank Glenn Weiss whose fiance said yes. This could have been a very different evening. You really came through. We would like to thank HBO, Casey, and especially Nina for their constant support. They've been incredible. Whether we want to do a story about trade policy or about Russell Crowe's jockstrap. I'd like to thank Liz Stanton and Tim Carvell, who are the backbone of the show. My wife Kate, she's my personal backbone. I love you very much. And our children, Greyson, Ella, Emmet, Hudson and Marlow. We love you very much. My son, two and a half years old, he hates our show. He likes "Paw Patrol." And if our show is anything, it's the precise opposite of "Paw Patrol." Thank you very much. Good night.
