  • GOOD,BUT BONO IS NOT THE GREATEST SINGER AS EVERT CLAIMS.

  • Most of what you say is true of Letterman NOW, but his legacy will be the strongest of any of the current late night guys. Conan's show has always been a weaker version of 80s Letterman. He's been the first to admit that he'll never touch what Dave has accomplished. Jay probably wouldn't even be on network tv without Dave. Carson had given up on him and Letterman gave him a voice. Jay may have won the ratings war, but if you ask top comedians who they prefer, Dave would win in a landslide.

  • wow, cant believe you responded to 5 mth old post, but thanks for replyin :)

    i disagree, though, aside from his outside studio skits, where you said he was strong, i just dont think hes that funny, he sticks with very generic remarks to get laughs, and a lot of times he just gets laughs because the audience knows hes expecting laughs... i just dont think he has anywhere NEAR the same talent as conan and even jay. i will leave out jimmy fallon because hes VERY rusty now lol

  • It's a five month old post, but it's worth a response. Without Letterman, Conan would still be a writer. Letterman admittedly mostly coasts these days (rarely leaves the studio, which was his biggest strength) but his show in the 80s and for a large part of the 90s was by far the best. Conan, Jay, both Jimmies and the rest owe a lot to him. Hell, even Johnny Carson adjusted his show in the 80s to include more Lettermanesque pieces.

  • Letterman somehow always gets the best bands to play on his show

  • the only thing that sucked about this is why u2 would put their talent on such a shit show like letterman, whose talent in his field is in no way comparable to u2's talent in their field.....?...... they shoulda gone to conan, that woulda been a better fit.....

  • Great shout outs to The Beatles and The Ramones.

  • just how many times has joey ramone died?

  • welcome u2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • best ever live band _ and best current band still recording  The CD is a real (real) grower - go enjoy Mike
