It's late at night - you've stayed up to watch your favorite talk show host - for me it's Jon Stewart - with his wacky take on the news - but in years past I've watched David Letterman - and I was never able to watch either Carson, or his heir Leno, and have no idea in the world why that is... Who are your favorites? and Why?? |

Posted by menschmedia When I was in my 30's,I liked watching Tom Sndyer's "Tomorrow Show',thought he was good interviewer,enjoyed when he &guest got into a heated discussion.I've always liked David Letterman for his sharp wit,his funny 'top 10 list'. Once in awhile,I'll stay up to watch him. I can't stand Jay Leno,he's not funny Sue |

My favorite late night host by far was Johnny Carson. I watched him every night, and when he retired it felt like I'd lost a close friend. |

jOHNNY CARSON WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING. wE LOVED HIS KARNAC IMPRESSIONS. HE WAS ALSO SO FUNNY IN HIS HUNTER CLOTHES WITH THE CHECKED HAT THAT WENT OVER HIS EARS. DAVID LETTERMAN COULD NEVER HOLD A CANDLE TO JOHNNY. MORE PEOPLE HAD SEX DURING JOHNNY'S SHOW THAN ANY OTHER LATE NIGHT SHOW IN THE HISTORY OF TV. |

Personally, didn't watch too much of the past. But after Carson... and currently... hate them one and all. And the worst thing is not only do they have to relate everything to sex -- what they pass off and applaud as music keeps me definitely away. |

Posted by lindadelrocco With all due respect - it sounds like they had 'better' things to do rather than watch Johnny? |
