The longest running live TV chat show is Late Late Show (Ireland), which was first aired on 6 July 1962 and was presented by Gay Byrne. The show has been hosted by Patrick Kielty since 15 September 2023, when he took over from Ryan Tubridy, who presented the show for 14 years.
In 1962, when the Late Late Show started airing in Ireland, it was uncommon to have a live chat TV show so late in the day.
