So is David Letterman is having a good or bad week??


I haven't kept close tabs on the situation but it seems that he boinked a few staffers who then blackmailed him. The bad thing is that his chick isn't talking to him, the good thing is that his ratings are through the roof.. Only in America do your transgressions so easily translate into hard-cold cash.



Just look at the Righetti review of the Late Night landscape.
please be aware that I haven't watched late-night TV in years so this isn't based on any real facts or experience..



Letterman- not that funny; it seems that most of the people who claim to be his fans don't actually watch the show, instead tuning into Colbert or something. Every person who claims to watch Letterman also cannot remember the last time they turned him on



Leno- because like reading the Daily News people like to not be challenged.
I haven't ever really gotten Leno, not because he isn't funny but because he's as edgy as a Coldplay. I guess this 10PM thing will work and he'll be making loot especially because he's only competing against the WPIX newscast with Kaity Tong and the white dude and thus his ratings will be soli.


Conan- I haven't seen a single episode of him hosting the Tonight Show but my guess is that he's probably doing Conan on the Tonight show which means he's doing In the Year 2000 skits still. Not bad but not exactly Johnny Carson.



The Scottish Guy- very funny.. he might be Irish actually



Jimmy Kimmel- About as unfunny a human as there is, although I hear that his show is actually pretty good



Jimmy Fallon—literally the least funny person on earth.. I have yet to catch an episode of his dreadful show but I have to imagine it can't be worst than my expectations…

you get a pass for mailing this one in due to the new lady in your life. you haven't even seen 75% of these shows.

you are right about fallon and leno. unwatchable. letterman was good when he was on after carson. same thing happened to conan. he was good after leno. now they both kind of suck. kimmel can be funny. ferguson is a funny dude. has a new book out. might be entertaining.

stewart is back. he finally figured out how to make fun of obama without feeling guilty. colbert has been struggling.
