It's been on my mind for a while now but I just couldn't put my finger on what exactly was wrong with these two late night hosts. Then it hit me: they are clearly the Kang and Kodos of crappiness. The Twin Terrors of Television. They suck away every positive feeling in your body, leaving you a numb, empty core of a man. There is nothing funny about them. They are not funny, nor have I ever so much as smiled at any of their attempts at humour. How the hell have they survived so long? Who watches them and from what mental hospital did they all get their lobotomies? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU AMERICA!?

"You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier -
Letterman's lobotomy came via CBS contract. Leno, on the other hand, was just never funny to begin with."The French caused the war [Persian Gulf war, 1991]" - Ned
"you people who bash Bush have no appreciation for one of the great presidents in our history." - Ned

when you can't cut it as a standup comedian they give you a TV show

Letterman is the MAN! THE MAN!
Though he isn't as good as he once was. He is highly revered by current comedians. As Jon Stewart said, after Johnny Carson died, and Letterman gave him a moving tribute at the Emmys, I think, - one day we'll be talk about Letterman as he talked about Carson.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Meh, neither are all that great. IMHO Letterman edges out Leno.
However both are MUCH MUCH MUCH better than fricken Conan. UGH. Worst late night host ever.Captain of Team Apolyton - ISDG 2012

Conan O'Brien is (or at least was) a genius at comedy writing. I find his delivery leaves something to be desired, but he can still be quite funny."The French caused the war [Persian Gulf war, 1991]" - Ned
"you people who bash Bush have no appreciation for one of the great presidents in our history." - Ned

Meh, I think Conan is better than both of them by far."The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

Craig Ferguson kicks Conan's ass.
Conan = teh suck!“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Not to sound snobbish or anything, but even for TV entertainment, these shows are definitely on the "light" side. Not worth wasting much time on, at least not as long as there's shirt ironing and cleaning of the bathroom as viable alternatives.Comment

Ozzy is crazy, Conan completely owns Leno and Letterman."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
