The other night I fell asleep on the couch & awoke with that Craig Ferguson show on - god was that awful... They may as well just run a Ron Popeil Rotissere infomercial, bet the ratings would be better too.
Arseniooooooooooooooooo HALL!!!!! (pictured with the legendary J.Carson)
I figured we were talking still on the air. Obviously Carson set the bar for everyone. Arsenio was good, but manily cuz he had cool guests. He really wasn't that fall down funny and was only OK as an interviewer. Letterman has always been cutting edge funny and had great guests. Plus, he's supported hip hop from day one. Always the best guests, best band, best musical guests, and he's not afaid to ask tough questions.
He's slowed down as he gets older and Conan is picking it up and basically emulating a young Letterman.

That is verry true as well, but his radio show is better really.
