The best one two punch ever... too bad they are on opposite networks.

Lenos stuff gets old. Fast. Ive been realizing this for years. He has the same thing every night, just a little different. Im sure Jay is a really funny guy. But the bits that Letterman has are just hilarious. Conan does the same things. And thats why they own.

Its always fresh and new. Like right now as im typing this Nobel prize winning professor is randomly comming out in the show and reads parts of Paris Hiltons new book. Haha and the horrible edits and such. Both Conan and Dave do it well, very similar minds.

I love their announcers as well when they get involved. They are both HILARIOUS!

What do you guys like for late night?

Conan > Everyone.

I don't think much of the other Late Night hosts...frankly they all bore me except for Conan...Letterman has his moments though, so I'll give him that atleast...

Conan owns. Letterman's got nothing on that guy.

The picking order goes: Conan O'Brien, Jay Leno... and then after all other shows are out... David Letterman (the guy is just not funny and he comes off as a bitter old man who lives on the fact that he used to be funny... I liked him when I was 12, but not anymore).

Conan is definitely at the top, anybody else is a distant second.

It's difficult to choose between Leno and Letterman, because while Letterman's show has better writers and better guests, I find Dave as a person to be very aggravating.

Kilborn doesn't even matter. :lol:

Jon Stewart, of course, is right up there with Conan, except I don't think he counts as late night.

DEFINITELY Conan.

Letterman is a funny guy. I kind of like his attitude towards the whole thing. Very "so what?" about things.

Leno is bottom of the barrell dreck. I imagine the people that watch him also partake in watching Survivor and shit like Everybdoy Love Raymond.


The Daily Show is the end all be all of funny. Stewart isn't necessarily the funniest component either, the correspondents crack me the fuck up.

No more Kilborn, hes done as the host of the Late Late show. Drew Carey has been doing it this week to cover, I guess they are going to need a replacement!

Wow it's great to see Conan fans. :biggrin:

I love David Letterman though. He's hilaroius, that laugh he has and his sarcastic/dry humour :rocker:.

Letterman's side kick is real funny too, he always makes those unnecessary, yet funny comments all the time. A great combination.

Conan, I don't need to say anything about him, othes said what needed to be said about that man. By the way, he's going to be replacing Jay Leno pretty soon. :biggrin:

:laugh: Those clips are genious! It was very clever of him to do what he did. Since the two companies merged, it means that he can use those clips of Walker Texas Ranger anytime he wants, however much he wants. :laugh:

Did you see the one where they showed a kid on top of a ladder and this old man at the bottom telling the kid to jump down and that it would be alright? Then the kid jumped and the man moved out of the way and let the kid fall. It was bizarre. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
