An outstanding lineup of guests and performers like Jerry Seinfeld and St. Vincent bolster the comedian’s anarchic take on chat shows

Comedian John Mulaney hit the ground running tonight with his newest Netflix special, “John Mulaney Presents: Everybody’s in L.A.” A quirky, live-streamed love letter to Los Angeles built around a quasi late night talk show, the series was unapologetically wacky. It’s abundantly clear after just the first episode that Netflix should look into making Mulaney a permanent late night talk show host.  

He’s that good and the eccentric show he’s built is delightfully nonsensical.

Mulaney, known for his work on “Saturday Night Live,” is a talent Netflix has spent years placing in the spotlight through projects like “John Mulaney: New in Town,” “John Mulaney: The Comeback Kid,” “John Mulaney: Kid Gorgeous at Radio City,” “John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch,” and “John Mulaney: Baby J.”
