On recent Friday evenings, however, Reiss has held forth in a different studio at NBC’s 30 Rockefeller Plaza headquarters, asking visitors to clap and show their energy – yet remain mindful that some moments of the program they are about to see won’t be very funny.
Some may get them angry. No matter what you hear, he reminds them, keep in mind one rule: No booing.
On these Fridays, in the studio once reserved for Megyn Kelly’s morning program, MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes bounds out from backstage and offers – while standing on a set festooned with elaborate video walls – an energetic monologue. He then presents lively conversation and visits with guests like Richard Engel,...
