...because he's moving to Letterman's desk next year anyway.

What say you all?

[Svartalf]

Uh, what?

[Hermit]

Uh, what?

Letterman. Colbert. It's a US thing.

[Svartalf]

Has to be, I've barely heard of Colbert, and not at all of Letterman.

[hadespussercats]

David Letterman has been a late-night talk show host since the days of Johnny Carson. Big name in comedy, now retiring.

[Svartalf]

And to be replaced by Stephen Colbert... OK, I hope it's still fun once he's gone

[Bella Fortuna]

Huge mistake, I think, but I could also be terribly wrong.

David Letterman has been a late-night talk show host since the days of Johnny Carson. Big name in comedy, now retiring.

Not only that, he was an early morning talk show host too, 1980. I watched it two months when I was writing mys thesis.

[SteveB]

That sucks... I really like the Colbert Report.

[Hermit]

Colbert had quite a good edge at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in 2006. Either it's gone now, or it has been edited out of the youtube offerings of The Colbert Report.

I'm not believing it. It's gotta be a joke. I'm waiting for the other shoe to fall.

I think he'll kill it! But it will be sad not to see his political and more intelligent humour any more. Hopefully he'll just do it for a few years and get back to more political parody.
