Mid September is a decent launch time for the show - for me, I am hoping they have reduced its run time to 90 minutes, as even Ryan Tubridy said he felt the over two hour format needed changing.
Hopefully Patrick has kept the owl, as it is the icon for the show
The theme tune is the issue for me - Gay Byrne's era theme tune is brilliant, but Tubridy decided to butcher that in his versions of it, and also the "To Whom It Concerns" is just more associated with Gay Byrne, that I feel a brand new theme tune is needed.
Pat Kenny had a very decent theme tune, and I feel Patrick's production should have a fresh new theme tune, maybe with night time scenes of Dublin, leading up to the night time view of RTE Television Centre, with The Late Late Show logo over it.
