A buffoon playing a buffoon on TV. It was easy for his writers in his current show; there weren’t too many expectations for a buffoon.
It will be interesting to see if he can even break past the normal childishness of his typical current viewer and convincingly satiate the viewer who is accustomed to ole bucktooth....a despicable shell of a man.

That’s what I was thinking. I was kind of hoping Whoopi Goldberg was going to get the gig.

Another good question would be what about comedy in late night shows. That’d be a really good question. Find someone who is funny.

Hasn’t Ellen Degeneres had her own show twice already? She needs a third show now too... really?
To: dynachrome
Mr Clobert is as funny,clever,charming and goofy as Mr Letterman.
Talk about diminished expectations!

As long as Ellen doesn’t dance. I think Ellen does critters too. Gotta have critters.

Colbert is leftist scum.
someone like Jimmy Kimmel who can be sometimes left leaning, would be more even handed.

I’m opposed to quotas except when it comes to a liberal losing his job. I just ask them to voluntarily check the box that says, “Yes, I am willing to give up my job for a quota hire.”

Rush should get a group of investors to buy one of the networks. Present an alternative across the board. I actually might start watching TV again if that happened.

"Another good question would be what about comedy in late night shows. Thatd be a really good question. Find someone who is funny."What seems to be "funny" to people who need to get up in the morning to go to work, and to people who do not need to get up in the morning to go to work probably differs. (But I'm all for increasing diversity in late night TV -- narrow the demographic even more than it already is!)

When I think of comedy, I think of Don Rickles, Phyllis Diller, Bob Hope, George Burns, & Tig Notaro.
