Favorite Late Night Talk Show / Host

What is your favorite late night TV talk show to watch, and who is your favorite late night talk show host?

Too spice it up a bit, let's include some shows/hosts from the past too. :wink:

I voted for Carson - he's a classic. Out of the currents, my favorite would be Letterman, but I rarely watch any of them.

Jay Leno! He makes me laugh. :clap: Carson was great too, but you never see his shows on TV anymore. :(

Lol I've never heard of any of them. XDDDD
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....

Neithird, there are a lot of the Johnny Carson Tonight Show's out on DVD now, I think. Check ebay. You might find some there. I've seen some outtakes on some of the shows on TV promo's, etc., and they are hilarious.

I like them all. They are all entertaining and funny in their own way. I guess I watch Leno more than any others, though.

Well, David Letterman was back from a 2 month vacation last night and he had a beard. I normally don't like beards, but his looked pretty good. He's a funny guy - little strange - but funny, lol.

Robin Williams was Dave's guest last night and he is always a hoot, lol.

Anyone else see The Late Show with David Letterman last night? What did you think of last night's Top Ten List?

I happened to catch some of Robin William's spot on the show. He was great for a laugh as always. They were talking about his USO trip. I didn't know he was doing that, but I'm glad to hear he's going over to entertain the troops now and then.

I barely recognized Letterman with the beard. I had to do a double take to make sure of who it was. :lol:

Whoa, found this old topic and thought I would bump it up. There are a few more additions that this poll could use now, such as Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, and Jimmy Kimmel, and a few others I guess.

What I really wanted to post about though was David Letterman's recent announcement that he will be retiring this year. Sad news. I don't always watch his show, but I always enjoy it when I do. He has a knack for this and he and Paul Shaffer (sp?) get along great as host and sidekick.

I happened to watch some of the show last night and the guy they have announced will be replacing Letterman on The Late Show named Stephen Colbert (or something close) was on there. Yikes!!! I do not like this guy. He didn't seem very funny at all too me. Anyone else have any opinions on this guy or like him?

I said other, because I don't have cable and I don't watch TV.

Craig Ferguson is my favorite late night guy, he cracks me up. Geoff the robotic sidekick dude is hilarious, and overall the zany humor just appeals to me.
