The card read "Happy Holidays! Love Ellen, Tom & Peanut."
None of those people are people in Seth Meyers' family.
When he shared the card on Instagram, Meyers wrote:
"Happy Holidays to Tom, Ellen and Peanut whose names were accidentally printed on the bottom of the Meyers family card."
"I'll admit that if it was just Tom and Ellen it would have been rage inducing but the inclusion of Peanut makes it hilarious."
"Is Peanut a pet? Probably. But maybe they are a small child or a live-in grandparent."
"The whole thing is a reminder that the true meaning of Christmas is things will go wrong and the best you can do is roll with it (we cut off the bottoms!). Also, if Tom and Ellen received the bottoms of OUR card just know that Frisbee is my wife's cousin and he is a DJ."
Most people were quick to speculate on the identity of Peanut:

The guesses ranged from adorable corgi...
...to random post-convict tenant in Tom and Ellen's house.
Some people have experienced similar Christmas card trauma:

No!
Not Peanut!
Meyers has had a pretty solid 2019, receiving four Emmy nominations, including "Original Music & Lyrics" for Documentary Now! and "Best Writing-Variety Series" for both Late Night with Seth Meyers and Documentary Now!
May Seth, the actual Meyers' family, Ellen, Tom and Peanut all have a merry and a bright holiday season.

Radcliffe appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers and the topic of the play came up. It was such a smash hit that surely Daniel would want to see it, right?
Nope.
Lots of people assume maybe it would be strange for him to witness his own character in some of these situations, but that's not the case. Radcliffe has had an incredibly successful acting career in movies, television, and stage plays since Harry Potter. He's quite comfortable letting go of his characters. He doesn't want to see it because he doesn't want to deal with the audience. We mentioned that Radcliffe is an accomplished stage actor, so he understands that the audience and actors affect one another. Radcliffe worried that people would be busy watching him for his reactions as opposed to watching the action on stage. Putting Harry Potter into a theater full of Harry Potter fans would create a distraction. The fans wouldn't get to enjoy the show as intended and the actors would constantly be competing for the audience's attention.
When asked if he would consider a disguise, he brushed the idea off. He didn't want to be that guy.
"The thing about a disguise is that if it stops working then you're just a dude who wore a disguise."
Overall, the whole thing wouldn't be a "relaxing evening at the theater" - which is what Radcliffe thinks theater should be. The verdict on whether or not he will see the show in the theater is a totally understandable no.
People get it. Radcliffe has made it a point to maintain as close to a "normal" life as possible, so skipping out on that makes sense. Most people were quite happy to just let that be the end of it.
Then there's this guy... who kind of unintentionally proved Daniel's point.
@Gizmodo He just needs to show up nude like he's in Eqqus and nobody will notice.... uh... some of his reactions.— Mike Fennelly (@Mike Fennelly) 1543029509.0
