HUH!?
-
in the year two thou-saaaaaannnnnd!!
-
Nicholas Meyer, who should have been brought in for the tng movies. Oh and David Letterman is a senile old fool that nobody cares about anymore.
-
that clip was funny.
-
still doing Know Your Cuts of Meat and making O.J. jokes? Yeah? Well... I'll be watching Conan.
-
The O.J. jokes went with the chin.
Letterman is the king. Though, I love Conan, too. -
Conan will be like a little girly man.
-
inadvertent hilarious joke setup for the win!nice one, Herc.
-
After growing up with him, I feel like a proud parent, like a buddy of mine just got promoted...break a leg, Conan! We're behind you!
-
Alas what could have been.
-
conan at 1130 and craig ferguson afterwards. and, if i'm still awake, reruns of stewart/colbert at 1:30. could this have worked out any better?
-
Time to enter the Cone Zone!

About ten years ago in Times Square, NBC put up a giant billboard that read "NUMBER 1 IN LATE NIGHT!" with an incredibly hammy picture of Jay Leno, basically just smirking like an asshole. A few weeks later, about a block away, CBS put up a similar billboard that proudly declared "NUMBER 3 IN LATE NIGHT!" (This is when Letterman was sometimes getting beat by Politically Incorrect) The picture was fucking hilarous- Dave with a big, goofy, shit-eating smile on his face. A hysterical self-depreciating response to that nitwit Leno.
-
Mostly because of Ferrell raping my childhood this weekend with Land of the Lost. But on second thought, Anna Friel will be partaking in the raping, so it's not all bad. She can rape my childhood anytime.
-
IMHO
-
I love Dave and Conan. Don't care if Leno succeeds or fails at his new time, as long as those two do all right.
-
but it's still like every other talk show.
-
...shit, missed the first of Bill's act.
-
The Tonight Show fart cloud kills all comedy. I fear, yet still hope, for him.
-
Looks like I miss ALL of it.
-
I stopped watching those celeb ass kissing shows in my late 20s and I'm ashamed that I enjoyed them before then.
-
Every time I tune in he's doing some shtick with that deli guy and spraying pedestrians with a fire hose or something. It's just refreshing to know that kind of unbalanced humor can still fly in this tightass era

Does Letterman still drop stuff off the roof?
by anything but tangerines
totally base yet somehow uncommonly satisfying television
-
Not always so much in artists, but in direction and top notch atmosphere. Not a fan of Conan's ginormous stage.
-
Will Ferrell I could have done without.
-
As shallow a thing as that is to say, I thought his set was kinda cozy, with the audience up front and the band at arm's length. Conan's new set is too big and overly lit.
-
Letterman's though, remains perfect.

speaking of music, i wonder how he felt about Pearl Jam playing
by bmacsmith
PJ has only played Letterman. they've played on his show at least 5 or 6 times, but never Leno as far as i know. I wonder if they had to ask his permission to do Conan.
-
Conan, Letterman, Colbert? How does one choose what to DVR!?!? (Clearly the solution is Conan, and Letterman, then Colbert during a re-run. But who has time to watch 2.5 hours of talk!?!)
-
Only relevant during elections.
-
I never understood why people like him so much.
-
If he chooses to tone down the wackiness, be a little more friendly, concentrate on his ability to conduct some of the best interviews on TV, and put a little more time into his monologues, I bet he could clean up in the ratings. Conan's going to capture the youth market, he might as well try to lure a few of Leno's old faithfuls to his side. But I suspect that Dave won't change his show one bit, doing his show his way always seemed more important to him than ratings.
-
I made it through about a week of the CBS show before I gave up.
-
Letterman was great before he became just an MSNBC type Bush basher. Has he even told an Obama joke yet?
-
After 9/11 both Leno and Letterman both added flag pins to their suits. Guess which one kept his. I like the idea of flag pins, but the people wearing them are often douchebags, particularly if their message is to support a president or a war whether they're right or wrong. Anyway, here's a Letterman joke about Obama: "President Obama, by the way, is, I think, making his first presidential European trip. And while he's there in Europe, he plans to fire the CEOs of BMW and Volkswagen." Happy?
-
Obama's not. Therefore, Bush jokes galore. Go back to drinking your righwing kool-aid, cocksucker.
-
was the best, most innovative show on late night at that time.
Larry Bud Melman. I mean really, who could compete with that?
I submit from 1984: Larry Bud Melman in a Bear Suit
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4iwTSWeuRo -
when he was on NBC with low budget humor. CBS kinda spoiled him for me. And the Bush-bashing got old (although he deserved it) and repetitive and unfunny with time. I've been a fan since Letterman's morning show. Anyone 'member that?
-
If you continue to put up videos that are not available to people in Canada, should I take that as a hint that the advertising revenue generated by your Canadian readers is not needed or wanted?
-
You know this to be true, in the cockels or your black hearts. He's a weasley, two-faced, closet hiding, S&M perverted, PC, souless cunt of a human being.
-
I'm very curious to see who wins between Conan and Dave, once the newness shine leaves Mr. O'Brien. I like both, but would rather see Dave at number one for awhile before he retires. Losing to Conan might kill the guy.
-
Pure and simple. The man is still hilarious. Really like O Brien, but will always be a Letterman guy
-
In time you will all agree with me
-
equals The Late Show. Paul's mindless musically interludes account for the rest.
-
That guy must drink about 20 Red Bulls before going out.
-
... Leno speaks very highly of you.
-
Letterman was funny back in the day, like right after the war between the states. Now he's just old and tired. Conan's first show was great, but not brilliant.
-
He was funny for about about an hour thirty years ago.
-
but that's what is appealing to me, I don't want to see a happy go lucky generic face going through the motions. Conan has his own style which I love, Kimmel is the biggest show bizz whore there is. Fallon is too early to tell but i dont have high hopes. Leno to me turned into the generic face, trying to please as many people as possible and try not to offend anyone. Thats not a bad thing, just not for me. BTW Ferguson, why no love for this crazy bastard? I like him!
-
...Pushing Leno out. THE TONIGHT SHOW appeals primarily to an older demographic (too old for my ass). Leno's cutesy, harmless humor was perfect in that slot.
Now that they've shoehorned in Conan and his sophmoric potty/pothead humor, this plane's going straight into the tarmac. Letterman will win over the long run. -
Who replaces Fallon next season?
-
The trick is to make fun of the people around him. He's the straight man in this act, the jokes come from Joe Biden and the rest of the administration. Barack's the Zeppo.
-
It is funny how those that prefer Leno are viewed as simpletons by Letterman fans who try so hard to posit him as an intellectual funnyman. Sorry chaps, Letterman is seriously unfunny and mean.
-
Uh, yeah, that's why he's been around for 20 years?

.....because of the rep that he built 20 years ago....
by darfurontherocks2
.... almost like how Eddie Murphy still gets roles...
-
It's not fair he's become this conservative punching bag, just because he teases Douchebag O'Reilly. Dude is a comedy legend. And Conan is on his way. Haters should shut the fuck up, because you're embarrassing yourselves.
-
I agree it looked the coziest. Letterman's just looks like they didn't change anything since the 1980s , 80s cameras being used too. Conan's set looks like a gigantic Japanese game show or something.
-
who say how sharp and NASTY and wickedly witty he is but i see staleness or 2 week old white dot shit laying in the grass and starting to break up. Top 10 ? seriously? break out the Tic Tac Toe segment while he's at it.
-
Bush was a douche, Obama's a douche... all politicians are douches. Perfect self-deprecating humor for the douchey and unfunny Letterman. Conan is going to own the shit out of him.
-
All three suck. Dave is a bitter old fart, Conan is an obnoxious manic clown, and Jimmy is not ready for network TV, he should stick to cable. Time to go to bed early.....or watch porn.
-
fuck it. also rono i agree all 3 suck shit. man i miss carson.
-
Letterman is old and passe'. Conan is fresh and cutting edge. You can't beat Truimph the insult comic dog and the masterbating Bear skits. Conan rules. That's all that needs to be said on that.
-
He's evolving into Carson territory. Mind you Conan is like Letterman was 20 years ago on NBC in wackiness
