Active hosts only. Carson would definetely own... But I would have to go with Conan, Letterman is a close second. I can't stand Leno, although he always seems to have the best guests.

Conan Obrian, that guy is 10x funnier than Leno...
And I really don't know wtf carson is doing with his show.

Carson..what a tool. Hes more concerned about himself than his guests, he seems to always talk over his guests.
Kimmel is pretty good.

Leno has the best monologue. Conan is great.
I hardly watch Letterman anymore.

The sad thing is Carson has a show. MTV "VJs" are supposed to die at age 20 anyway.

Lenos Monologue is so dumb, he always says the obvious jokes...and then laughs at them.

Theres a skit conan used to do, Frankenstein wastes a minute of our time... I loved that segment, I haven't seen it in a while though. How about the slip nuts? Its simple, yet brilliant.

Well, I like Jay's monologue and it's not dumb to me but I've like Jay's comedy for years.
I like the Conan skits when he has the moving lips on celebrity faces.
When he does Bush, Clinton and Arnold it cracks me up.

The skit in the year 2000 is the shit. It cracks me up all the time

when they do arnold, its hilarious.. I think the same guy that does arnold also does Michael Jackson, and I could be wrong but I think its Robert Smigel, the creator of Triumph the insult comic dog.

He always does it with one of the guests, I guess none of them want to do it.

I like Leno the best. I like the monologues, and also the "headlines" on monday nights. I find Conan kind of annoying, but he went to the same high school as me, which is kind of cool.

Does Jon Stewart count? If not, I'd have to go with the Conan-Andy combo from back in the day. Andy Richter was the shit. I bet he's glad he moved on to "bigger and better things." :blah
I usually watch Fresh Prince of Bel-Air marathons on Nick at Nite or some cartoons for late night shit. Late Night Talk Show's are basically what the 'Daily Show with Jon Stewart' is except they have guests that talk about themselves and he doesn't.

Conan used to be good ... when I used to watch it. I've seen it like 10 times in the last two years.
But yeah, he's the better than the rest.
Or at least used to be.

I love Leno and his "Jaywalking" segment. Also, he's always guaranteed for a good Lakers joke :)

Conan all the way. The hair, nose, cheek bones...so Irish(on a level). The Walker Texas Ranger lever...What if they had a baby...memories, memories.

conan sucks compared to conan+andy combo
I still like Conan when I actually have time to watch, but I miss the "desk drive" and Andy's obsessed little sister.
I wonder how much of Late Night is going to translate to the Tonight Show.

"THE" Carson hasn't been on in like 12 or 13 years, but some of you think about Carson Daly when you say "Carson".
It's going to depend how old you are. If you grew up watching the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, he was the Gold Standard, but he was on for 30 years. That was before people started clicking over to watch ESPN SportsCenter after the local news (10:30 Central).
Late-night variety and talk shows now appeal to different audiences than it did two decades ago. Jack Parr and Johnny set the format standard that still exists but it's definitely got a different set of demographics today.
I like the Tonight Show (Leno) the best because of familiarity but I seldom watch it. Conan can be pretty funny but he kind of creeps me out sometimes.

It is now time for a little segment we like to call "Frankenstein wastes a minute of our time." What are you going to show us today Frankenstein?
GRRRR. URRGH. BRRRRR. After leading us around the dressing rooms, etc.
Frankenstein. That is what you have to show us. A door.
GRR . BRRRRRRR. RUHGHGH.
Well Frankenstein, you definitely wasted a minute of our time.

I only got to see those show via internet... <cough>torrents</cough> but i've seen them all and i agree with you.
And it's also a matter of the show's contents. I like The Daily Show and Jon Stewart but maybe because of its "liberal bias" (as redn... err... conservatives like to call it).

It;s "late night" for me!! chasing a 15 month old all day and growing a baby in the old tummy teranium has pushed by bedtime ot an all time low of 9:30 :oops . I cath the daily show the next morning at 9am, and re-runs of Conan on cable. Letterman I'm lucky to watch 1x a month.

I celebrated Thanksgiving in an old-fashioned way. I invited everyone in my neighborhood to my house, we had an enormous feast, and then I killed them and took their land.

Is Conan going to move his show to LA when he takes over for Jay or will he stay in NYC? I can't wait until he gets the good time slot and some better guests. I will miss Kevin Eubanks, though...he's way cooler than Max Wienburg

I'm hoping he stays in NYC.

They've all got high points and low points IMO. Leno's monologue is hit or miss. Letterman could do pages out of the phone book and make them funny. Conan's jokes are usually weak but the physical stuff he does to get out of a bomb is usually pretty funny.
Leno's Headlines is my favorite bit.

Senator John McCain, who spent over five years in a Vietnamese POW camp, publicly releases 1,000 pages of medical records. Now people are left with only open nagging questions: what kind of freak has 1,000 pages of medical records?

I'm a bit down. Liza Minelli and David Gest, I don't know how it didn't work out. How can a man who likes other men and a woman who drinks not get along? The interesting thing is this - there is no conceivable amount of money worth telling the world that you were beaten up by Liza Minelli.
