    In the same respect that Jay-Z is by far the best musician this year. Right?

        The public found Jay-Z to be better than any other artist.

          Asher, this arguement started over Imran taking issue with two statements of mine: 1) Leno beating Dave 2) even at jokes. I've proven statement 1. I saw no reason to defend statement 2 as it is mainly opinion but I don't like Dave's trend in humor of late.

            I don't think you comprehend what's going on this thread.

            No one challenged your position on who lead who in ratings, everyone is talking about who is funnier.

            Then you started going off about how "facts is facts" (which is nonsensical, by the way).

            Suggest you re-read the thread so you don't come across looking like an idiot.

              Don't tell me you think Leno is funnier than Letterman...


              Neither is particularly funny, but Leno at least has a classic style which will always carry a little bit of appeal. Letterman's reliance on irony and anti-jokes became tiresome years ago, which explains why he could never beat Leno in the ratings.

              Also, Jay-Z...

                Amen; I'm shocked how many Letterman defenders there are here when it comes down to comedic talent. I'd have thought Norm settled this issue ages ago...

                Unbelievable!

                    Neither Letterman nor Leno are particularly funny to me, but Leno is just plain obnoxious.

                      Letterman is the obnoxious one. Leno is the bland one.

                        No, I don't agree. Leno just tries so hard that it's obnoxious.

                        Too many one-liners and obvious setups. Drives me crazy.

                          I like late night talk show hosts that rely on irony. But I like Letterman more than Conan because Conan is the rip off.

                            Conan is better than Letterman. He may have taken many of Letterman's comic ideas, but he presents them in a less bitter and more appealing way.

                              Trying too hard to be liked

                              I like my talk show hosts to not give a **** if people like them.
