    James wasn’t on the show for long. Or do you edit the guest segments.?

    Doesn’t pants for MacAvoy mean underpants? So, these “pants people” help him with his pants or trousers?

    That was very interesting and educational! Thank you mom I mean James!!
    In my home country we have similar tradition to “first footing”. The difference is that usually the first person will receive red packet with lucky money, and it’s usually a youngster or a kid even with cheerful laughs, symbolling that they will bring youthfulness, health, joy and laughters to the family in the coming year.
    With that said, James McAvoy was a delightful first guess of the year to Seth’s show. Happy new year to Seth, his family, ans everyone in the crews, and all the jackals. I hope 2024 will be full of laughters and joy to all!

    As I heard it, the first-footer was supposed to be someone tall and dark haired if possible, and tall, dark, and handsome types might be asked to do several houses, with a quick drink in each for luck. A bit like Seth’s Day Drinking by the end.🙂

    “Shout out to the pant people” and “first footing” in the same segment? Late Night just gives and gives.

    My wife (stagehand) had to yell at Tom Hiddleston to put his pants on in a Broadway show with Alan Rickman who laughed his ass off!

    How pathetic and mediocre American so called TALK shows are.. McAvoy is simply NOT THE SAME PERSON here compared to his appearances on NORTON’S program in uk

    So he doesn’t use his psychic powers? Disappointing.
