Who needs a talk show to find out about the guests, what their working on, see a film clip and whatever. Letterman had a lot to do with transitioning the talk show into an entertainment-based program. Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show" (he took over for the very stale Jay Leno) borders on brilliant almost every night and is less promoting celebrities than it is supplying songs and sketches.

"We connected with her just within the last six months," Trujillo says. "It really changed things, and unfortunately derailed some of the other interviews. She was that powerful."

Johnny Carson did, too. All the shows basically follow the mold set by Carson: monologue/some original comedy or skit/big star/secondary star/music act Letterman generally walks out after the song and tells the artist how great it was, and seems genuinely enthusiastic.

From: "Mary" > Letterman, last night in his small town news bit, said a line from an > article..."coughing dogs" & said, wasn't that an old Joni Mitchell song ? > And > then he proceeded to try to sing the line in a heartfelt way. He's done this "wasn't that an old Joni Mitchell song?" gag a few times in the past. For my money, Letterman is still the king of late night. The funniest. He also pokes fun at himself, such as having an intern come on and call him an a**hole and walk off, etc. My own ratings: 1 Letterman 2 Kimmell (love his "unneccesary censorship") 3 Conan 4 Fallon 5 Seth Meyers 6 Craig Ferguson The last two I can barely stand.
