\”This had the potential to delver quite an insightful look into the workings of a late-night talkshow, but regrettably this opportunity was largely wasted. Emma Thompson plays the role of host "Katherine Newbury" well, but her character is pretty unlikeable and probably deserves for her tired old show to be cancelled. Mindy Kaling's "Molly" is the new kid on the writing team with the nouse to reverse the decline and re-establish her boss as a success, but again her persona doesn't really engage either. Sadly, the film is completely devoid of humour and aside from the few scenes with John Lithgow, is pretty unremarkable. Perhaps not quite meritorious of the "privilege of your time".”
