Conan can pretty much mail it in for the next 5 years :lol

They've GOT to be kidding.

Nigel Wick was cool...
...but I can't see him doing good with this venue.
Who knows, maybe he'll surprise.

I actually liked Kilborn. The dude was full himself, but that was his schtick - and he played it well with his coolness and nightly interviews with hot women.

Nothing beats Conan though; except maybe Jon Stewart and Letterman

 

[Willco]

Letterman beating Conan?

... Are you on crack? Conan has more humor in his bowel movement than Letterman has in his entire monologue.

Maybe the current freezing temperatures in Alberta explains this obvious brain freeze.

I'm in Toronto - and it's above freezing
Honestly, Letterman isn't funny. Hasn't been for years!
But, for some reason, I keep watching. Maybe it's nostalgia, his interviewing skills (which are the best), or his stupid make-no-sense humor...
...I don't know.

That's what I thought when I read this news. When I saw him on the Late Late Show, he was funny, but not nearly funny enough. Conan won't have to worry about any competition that's for sure.

Speaking of Conan, did anyone see the rerun from a few nights ago? In it, Conan was talking to "Dick Cheney", suddenly Cheney gets shortness of breath, leaves the screen and comes back dressed as Darth Vader. I thought I was going to get shortness of breath just laughing at the whole scene.

 

[8bit]

I remember going to see him doing stand up about 15 years ago, back when he used to call himself Bing Hitler.

 

[belgurdo]

Conan
Letterman
Uh, those other dudes





























Leno

Wtf, since when are you in Toronto?

 

[Christoff Yurievich]

That news story says he was in Vancouver. Which one, I wonder? Must be the B.C. one because there's no movie filming here as far as I can tell. It would have been pretty cool to meet Nigel Wick though.

 

[Revolver]

Meh, I'd rather they just keep alternating guest hosts. The only time I even see the Late Late Show is during commercial breaks on Conan.

 

[MaverickX9]

I thought he was the worst out of the four guys they asked back for extended guest hosting.

I would have taken that MTV guy or (I can't believe I'm saying this) Michael Ian Black.

I actually liked when Kilborn was on the show...now I'll probably never watch it unless there is some hot chick on the show. She'd have to be wearing revealing clothing, too.

 

[maharg]

He left alberta because he likes paying taxes.... er I mean for school.

 

[blackwind]

"You know, it is so fashionable to take a shot at Jay Leno. Look, the fact is the man is out there every bloody night with fresh material and he's charming."

 

[maharg]

charming.............................

yeah..... he's..... charming......

is that the new euphamism for ugly and annoying? Like, how people say fat chicks have a great personality?

 

[blackwind]

is that the new euphamism for ugly and annoying?

Yes, yes it is.

 

[Matlock]

Carson > Conan w/ Andy > Letterman > Conan > Stewart > anyone else who's ever hosted a talk show in the history of man > QVC > Leno

 

[Drozmight]

Conan and Andy were the best.

I have a feeling that when Conan takes over for Leno, Andy will come back because they film it in Cali, and that's where Andy is now, trying to somehow save his faultering career.

 

[dave is ok]

Michael Ian Black was the only late night host I've ever seen that didnt kiss his guests ass for an hour straight, damn shame that he didnt get the job

 

[FortNinety]

WTF, wasn't Amy Sedaris a contender?

 

[pestul]

Carson > Conan w/ Andy > Letterman > Conan > Stewart > anyone else who's ever hosted a talk show in the history of man > QVC > Leno

Oh Jesus.. it took me ~10s to figure out you weren't talking about Carson Daly. Yikes!

"You know, it is so fashionable to take a shot at Jay Leno. Look, the fact is the man is out there every bloody night with fresh material and he's charming."

:lol :lol I at least got the reference

Willco, you're being well too polite. I really cannot believe someone said Letterman is better than Conan. Letterman sucks so much he makes shit look good. Conans DonaldTrump impression is funnier than Lettermans whole show.
