Letterman is a chat show right?

I mean I know writers write his opening monologues, but surely he could come on, say hello, and just bring the guests on straight away?

To not do the entire show because he cant do the funny bits at the start makes you wonder what the point of even having guests is.
 
Letterman hasn't been funny for years.. I think he needs writers for all those stupid skits, I mean how can he do will it float? or get a bunch of retards with grinders up there doing stuff if no one writes it out for him? Plus someone has to actually write out the questions he's going to ask the celebrities.
 
I was watching Ellen a little while ago, and she was showing bits from that Japanese game show that got posted here recently, where people have to contort themselves into a shape cut out of an oncoming foam wall or else be knocked into a pool of water. She then turned it into a game and let audience members bet on whether the next clip would show someone winning or falling.

This is gonna be painful...
 
BTW, Letterman does have his off days, but I still prefer him over that simian reject Leno.
 
I don't like Leno either, I haven't really watched any of their shows in a while. I did watch Jimmy Kimmel Live for a while and thought he was better than both of them, but ABC having that boring ass news show on before his makes it too late for me.. Nightline is OVER, shit. I don't like Conan either.. except sometimes he is really hilarious.

I'd rather watch The Daily Show and Colbert Report than any of them.
 
Most people agree with you these days. ;)
 
Letterman should just have Natalie as his guest and ad lib the whole show.
 
With occasional surprise appearances by Anna Paquin NAKED.
 
No, in a nice dress.
 
I've always prefered Letterman over Leno. My viewing pleasure has declined since he had a kid and talks about it with other guests-I can't relate.
I love it when Drew visits him and some other guests blah blah blah etc etc
 
Drew Carey?
 
I think she means Barrymore.
 
Better looking than Carey.
 
From all of us at ABC news, I hope you had a good day, and have a good evening!

(they show it here late at night for some reason)
 
Because it's LATE NIGHT with David Letterwoman.

Actually, it was "Late Night With David Letterman" from 1982-93 on NBC. Then he moved to CBS to do "The Late Show With David Letterman" from 1993-present. NBC hired Conan O'Brien to take over Letterman's 12:30 slot with "Late Night With Conan O'Brien."

Conan will leave that show to take over "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" from Jay Leno in 2009. That is, unless Leno refuses to leave his desk, which is entirely possible. Leno has as much talent as a split pea, but he makes up for it with guile and determination. Also, Leno still beats Letterman in the ratings most of the time because he gets the more mainstream movie & TV stars in Los Angeles than Letterman does in New York.

I was talking about the ABC News. They show it on News 24 late at night.
 
ABC doesn't' even call it's overnight news show "Late". It's just called "World News Now."

"Nightline" is as close as they come. Which, coincidentally, is up against Letterman and Leno.
 
Nightline used to make me angry.. then Politically Incorrect was canceled and I have no reason to watch ABC that late at night anymore.
 
I wish Graham Norton's writers would go on strike.
