I scrape funnier things than Jay Leno off of the grill of my car.
WOW! Your car has a grill! i was thinking of getting a cooler, and just keeping it with me, filled with water and gatorade, but a grill! Wow, man, you are the king.


(I know this is a little late to be quoting that, but I just looked at the thread.)


+1 to any given conan, second daily show post

That's a long shot...........I think Home Shopping Club is funnier than their lame-ass monologues.
I'll take Jimmy Kimmel and click between Kimmel and Miller.

Kimmel has a pretty good show. I dunno how you feel about sports, but the Jim Rome show "Rome is Burning" is pretty damn funny too.

I've been a big fan of Rome's radio show for about 6 or 7 years. I never get to see his tv show because I have no cable. I saw it once or twice at the gym and it was good. The ones I saw weren't as entertaining as the radio show though. He was on Letterman the other night.

Also, I liked the early episodes of The Last Word when he'd always debate with that dillweed from NYC.

I voted for Conan too because he is the most likely to draw a belly laugh and some of his bits are hysterical -- TO POOP ON!

The Daily Show is terrific too. Letterman is the best interviewer of the bunch. I'm losing interest in Jay Leno because I hate his suck-up interviews.

Adding Jimmy Kimmel and Craig Kilborn might have made the voting a little more interesting...

Personally I think Conan is the best interviewer of the bunch in a late night show situation. Why? Because he realizes that the show is not about the guests but about entertaining...who really cares about some celebrity's crazy vacation to Mexico where they para-sailed and it was scary or whatever... Conan makes the interviews funny because that's what it's all about.
