Even though I have a Liberal Establishment Friend who just tells me, “It’s ok to be superstitious,” whenever I mention this — I don’t think of my self as superstitious but I do sometimes wonder if the Rule of Three is one of those “spooky” things that happen that we can’t explain.
Recently, the Rule of Three worked out when Abe, Gorbachev and The Queen all died in quick succession. Now we have James Cordon leaving The Late, Late Show and Trevor Noah leaving The Daily Show.
So, who’s next?
The obvious choice is Seth Meyers, who would leave The Late Show to begin his transition into the new producer of Saturday Night Live. He is the ideal candidate and it would take a few years for the transition between the two men so the storied late night show could continue for decades to come without a hitch.
But I’m always wrong. So, who knows?
