Seth Meyers Unpacks the Hilarious 'Death' of His Dog Frisbee, Confirming Andy Samberg's Canine Conundrum

Late Night with Seth Meyers isn't just a platform for incisive political commentary; it's also a treasure trove of the host's delightful personal anecdotes. Among his most cherished — and hilariously recounted — tales are those featuring his beloved dog, Frisbee. But one particular story stands out, not just for Frisbee’s dramatic flair, but for the unexpected cameo of fellow SNL alum, Andy Samberg, and his undeniable, almost legendary, disdain for the four-legged family member.

Frisbee, it turns out, was a canine Meryl Streep, a master of the dramatic 'death.' Seth recounts how his golden retriever mix would, at a moment's notice, collapse to the floor, limbs splayed, eyes closed, utterly motionless.

This wasn't a medical emergency; it was an Oscar-worthy performance designed for maximum human attention or, more often, a sneaky snack. She had perfected the art of feigned demise, making her 'deaths' a regular, albeit startling, occurrence in the Meyers household.

Whether it was in the middle of a bustling hallway, just as a guest was arriving, or during a seemingly calm moment, Frisbee would seize her opportunity.

Seth describes the almost comical horror of finding his seemingly lifeless dog, only to realize she was merely executing her latest performance art. The family learned to recognize the subtle cues – the slightly too-still posture, the almost imperceptible twitch of an ear – indicating that Frisbee was about to deliver another show-stopping 'curtain call.'

The true punchline, however, came with the revelation of Andy Samberg’s feelings about Frisbee.

While most people are charmed by a dog’s antics, Samberg, according to Meyers, harbored a distinct and unapologetic dislike for the dog. Meyers recalls Samberg’s visible discomfort and avoidance whenever Frisbee was around, often making it clear he wished she wasn't. It wasn't just indifference; it was a genuine aversion that Meyers found both baffling and incredibly funny.

This stark contrast — Frisbee's over-the-top bids for attention clashing with Samberg's outright dismissal — created some truly awkward, and therefore hilarious, moments.

Meyers' retelling paints a vivid picture of these interactions, where the dog’s theatricality met the comedian’s deadpan disapproval, turning ordinary encounters into comedic gold. It’s a testament to the fact that even in the most mundane parts of life, humor can be found.

Through these relatable, if slightly absurd, personal stories, Seth Meyers continues to endear himself to his audience.

His ability to find humor in everyday life, even in the dramatic performances of his dog and the celebrity friends who can’t stand them, is a testament to his unique comedic voice. It's a charming reminder that even talk show hosts face their own brand of domestic comedy, making us laugh along the way.
