What if any is your favorite Late Night show....Letterman, Leno, Conan, Jimmy Fallon, Craig Ferguson, Jimmy Kimmel, George Lopez, any others?
While I admit I find it challenging to not change the channel through an entire show, I like Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon the most. Craig Ferguson I find extremely annoying!

I love Conan... but yea... sensitive subject


Needless to say, I tend to gravitate towards Letterman but I watch the news on the channel that proceeds Leno and am generally so lazy I do not get up to change the channel.

I never see anything late night except my dreams!! But I do like Jay Leno. Just the jokes in the beginning though. Can't stand air head Hollywood types getting interviewed.

The only times I see these are if we are getting home late from somewhere. Very seldom.

I prefer reading a good murder mystery before bedtime over watching any of the above mentioned late night shows. I guess I have a warped sense of humor, because I don't find any of their opening monologs (sp?) funny, at all!

I, DO, however, find Jimmy Fallen's thank you notes gig kind of humorous. He did it during the Olympics with Bob Costas, which was the first time I had ever seen it.

Letterman! I named my cat David after him (not kidding)!! I've had the worse crush on him ever since I was 13 (going on 25 years now), and back in 2004 on a whim I went on the show's website, and applied for tickets. Well, a week later, imagine my JOY when I received a phone call on my message machine, "This is Lisa from The Late Show with David Letterman regarding your request for tickets. Call us back, and if you answer a trivia question about the show, 2 tickets are yours.." I was so happy, called her back and answered the question correctly (it was, "what is the name of the owner of the Hello Deli" around the corner from The Ed Sullivan THeater??- I guessed correctly, if I remember, his name is Rupert)..

Anyhoo, my boyfriend at the time and I drove from here in Cleveland to Manahttan..it was such a surreal BLAST to experience being an audience member at the show, the best, I will remember it forever..


(Letterman's show is the one show in 25 years that I have consistently laughed out loud every time it's on...every time, he has such a dry dry wit/personality about him, yet he seems to be a very very kind, extremely intelligent man..)

As for my favorite late night show - since I can't stay awake beyond 10:00, its a moot issue.
(I get up at 5:30 AM most days).

We're not fans of those type of shows. Hubby likes to watch recorded Glenn Beck shows or we watch syndicated shows like Family Guy or Everybody Loves Raymond and the such. We also watch movies.

I absolutely love The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, he has always been my favorite. The only time I watch Letterman is if there is a guest on I really like but then I go right back to Leno.
