When I get a chance too I'll catch the David Letterman show and I like that, but for one I watch most often it'd have to be Rove..

Not really a talk show host per se, but Jon Stewart is the funniest man on television.

Conan, followed closely by Leno. ;)

Agree w/ Esperante about the Leno bit as-well. The talk-show hosts on CBS suck. Carson Daly is by far the worst though.

Yes, I don't like Letterman at all.

Carson Daly can rip up a picture of the pope and nobody would care. I would rather watch infomercials than Carson Daly. I can't stand a minute of him. He tries so hard to be funny but is just a talentless hack and comes out bombing every single one of his jokes-the audience doesn't like him either. He tries to pull a Leno were he talks with a guitarist or someone to get out of a bomb and comes off looking like an idiot. His whole show is just imitating Leno and failing miserably. Worthless pile of crap.

I dont have to pick. Most night I....

11:00 - Daily Show (only in summer)
11:30 - Daily Show
12:00 - Letterman AND Leno. (I switch back and fourth depending on 1) comercials 2) hilarity 3) guests)
(Oh and the daily sho overlaps the stupid and usualy not funny jokes at teh begining of each show :p)
12:35 - Conan.
1:35 (or when conan stops being funny) - Jimmy Kimmel

-------------------------------

John Stewart: EXCELANT host, hes always origional and can turn the most boring talk into a hilarious quote.
Letterman: For me equal to Leno in goodness. Hes serious and has his own things he does sometimes which you catch on to after while making the "inside" jokes more funny.
Leno: ^^. Hes a little more energetic and goofy but he seems fake sometimes. (not that makes any difference to the discussion, he has an AWESOME car collection. Rides did a special on him, he drove the tank car around LA. LOL. /awesome)
Conan: Really funny, altho sometimes stale. He always does the exact same thing, his shows differ from the one before only because of the guest. Hes done some so-so episodes (i used to watch him alot) and some that are just priceless. (such as the carrot sana or the michael jackson post-case helecopter cam over his "convoy")
Kimmel: Old school drunk funny. Its perfect for the time its in. Good stuff but nothing special. (hey, its a hell of a lot better than that dude from taxi...)

The end with Spock was too funny.

All funny.

I would put him in the same category as Leno, just marginally behind Conan but I don't watch his show all that often.

They show Wogan and Frost in Holland?! :confused:

The only thing Wogan does these days on TV is the Eurovision Song Contest. :o Though his Radio 2 show is outrageously popular.

I think Frost has just retired from his Sunday morning political talk show, the last thing I've seen him on was Sky's "Greatest Sporting Legends" show, though what he has to do with sport God only knows! :rolleyes:

We got BBC 1 and 2 over here via the cable. If I would mention a dutch guy only few people would know anyway. We also get to see Lettterman, Leno, Dr. Phil, and all those icons of US grotesqueness :D .
