I used to love Dave when i was growing up. Now he’s just a snide mean spirited old man.

Never been a fan of Letterman or Leno (I like Headlines and Jay Walking, but, otherwise, I can’t imagine anyone sitting through an hour of Jay). So it’s great to have Conan back, though he is going head-to-head with Jon Stewart, which makes for some tough choices.

Still, Craig Ferguson remains my favorite. If you haven’t see him, check him out. I started watching him when Jimmy Fallon took over the 12:35 slot, and he won me over instantly.

Letterman has become the Larry King of late night hosts : once a cutting edge original , now a tired , irrelevant drip .

Amen. Dave is obsessed with Sarah Palin & George W. Bush. He’s still bashing Bush, but I think he’s sexually obsessed with Sarah. He thinks about her whenever:
(1) He’s having sex with his wife
(2) He’s having sex with himself
(3) He’s having sex with a woman who works for him who doesn’t know if she will keep her job if she refuses.

Classy guy you are Davie Letterman. Ugh.

You said it. I’ve never been much of a Letterman fan myself and I agree with AntiHyperbole above that he does seem snide and mean-spirited. I used to like Jay, but he’s gotten less funny, it seems.

But thank God for DVR. I can DVR Conan and watch Jon and Stephen, or vice versa.

And I couldn’t agree with you more on Craig Ferguson. I also went to Craig after Conan left Late Night, and I’ve been hooked ever since, although Geoff the skeleton robot thing is kinda getting old.

I just can’t watch Letterman anymore. Everytime I look at him, I see a perverted, deranged old perert who doesn’t see anything wrong with making jokes about child molestation.

Why is Letterman attacking Leno? He had nothing to do with the Conan debacle. Maybe he’s still pissed that he losy out on the Tonight Show.

I’ll watch Conan, Leno, or even turn off the tube and go to sleep before I watch Letterman. Actually I have little choice about the last one, the classless bum puts me to sleep.

Giving me a THUMBS DOWN is giving a thumbs down to JOURNALISM!!!!111

No matter how hard Letterman tries, and the only time he even gets close is when he’s got B O’Reilly on his show, he’ll never take that slot from ANYONE else, even though I stopped watching Leno for other reasons. Letterman is a trip to the dentist. With no laughing gas.

Oy. Really?

A tasteless joke in reference to the daughter who did get knocked up (Bristol). MamaGrizzlyVictim twists it so it seems like he was talking about a different daughter (Willow).

I’m more likely to think of Palin as a liar than Letterman as a perv. Actually, I just think Palin is a liar.

That would be true, but Bristol WASN’T with her mom at the event Letterman joked about. Is was Palin’s 13 year old daughter.

By the way dude, what’s wrong with you if your hatred for Palin is so severe that you think its ok that someone jokes about molesting her daughter? There’s some issues going on there.

avoidswork has issues with females, males and the human race in general it appears. Just like staff-rapist Letterman.

It must really suck to be David Letterman. Damn, I miss Johnny Carson!
