I never really got into Carson. I liked Letterman back in the '80's for a while. Once the Daily Show got going good it was about as late as I wanted or needed to stay up. These days when I can't get to sleep I much prefer to do Adult Swim.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I used to enjoy Carson and Letterman in the 80s. Nothing like that rapport Carson had with Ed....his straight face, his timing.

Yeah I still love the guy but he has gotten a bit stodgy in his years (though still very funny and quick), I think it's a good decision for him. The Ferguson question is interesting, whether he'd be offered Dave's show or merely the time slot he certainly knows he'd have to change his schtick. He could do it and it might be good if he balanced it right; Letterman was considered pretty left-field when he started (which is why he was good). But I also like the later time for Fergie, it just works. |

Colbert would be a shadow of his great self in broadcast television. In cable he can cater to his audience and be very adventurous. In over-the-air tv he has to appeal to a broader audience of all tastes and sides and he has to be more politically correct. Same for Stewart. They would go from awesome in their network to boring in mass tv.

Quite a surprise (Dave I mean). I wonder if Fergs will get the invite up to the 11:35 slot. (Personally, I like his show where it is and fear the change will dilute it somewhat. But if he is offered I don't see how he could refuse.) |
