What you need to realize is it takes *practice* to be good at interviewing
and Letterman's had 10 years (more if you count the morning show and when
he subbed for Carson in the late '70's).  Go back to early reviews of his
show and you'll see repeated criticism of his weak and uncomfortable manner
when he interviewed.  Watching some of his show's from the early '80's on
A&E made me squimish because of his awkward interviewing.  Leno, Hall,
Miller (if he gets another crack) need time so they can gain the same
experience.

Regarding Copyright Laws....

   It is legal to write or quote *attributed* material in a public
forum that is small enough to no consititue a significant minority
of the entire product.  That means, to be legal, a Top 10 List
would have to be attributed to "Late Night with David Letterman,"
the date of airing would have to be given, and no alterations in
the text are allowable.

   Now, I'm no copyright weenie.  However, posting the lists *in*that*
*format* will protect the poster from a **very** costly lawsuit.  Choice
is, as always, yours.

  (I would think there'd be no problem at all, except that top ten
lists are published in book format too.  Thus, Carson Productions would
*not* want to see any of them pass into the public domain).

Actually, a few years ago, somebody was posting the top ten lists (I think
that was to rec.arts.tv), but stopped because when somebody contacted Dave
for permission to repost one in rec.humor.funny, Dave's people said "no".
They were presumably worried about damaging book sales.

Note:
I'm not agreeing with them, telling people not to repost them, or anything
of that sort.  I'm just letting you know that people have tried to contact
Dave on this issue before, and this was the response.  I also seem to
remember "signing" a letter to Dave w/ a bunch of e-mail addresses on it,
but I'm not sure where that went.

My favorite was during the Gulf War when they were spoofing the CNN Gulf War
Updates...

Every once in a while during the show, Dave would say something to the effect
of:  "Oh my.  It's time for another CNN Gulf War Update!"  Then they'd cut to
Larry, complete with the CNN mike and on-screen graphics.

The segment I remember is when Larry was saying  "David, it's horrible.  Trucks
with soldiers coming and going, all night.  Troops moving in and out, in and 
out.  Oh it's terrible David."

Dave then asks "Larry, where are you?" and he replies "I'm outside Cher's
apartment," much to the delight of the audience (and myself).  It was, I think,
Larry's finest moment.

Actually, no it wasn't.  I remember reading that the guy who played Grant
Tinker did it enough that he got badgered by the Screen Actors' Guild or
whatever into joining & paying them the several hundred dollar dues or
whatever.  Then Grant Tinker retired & the gag lost its relevance.  (Although
they did have Grant Tinker come on once and talk about how he was enjoying

Robert "Morty" Morton is the *producer* (actual title now: "Co-Executive

guests.  At air time he's there to see everything follows through okay,
hense all the talking on the phone.

I like the closing theme music better than the opening.  I stopped watching
the tonight show because I got tired of all of the political jokes.  After a
while, they just get tiresome.  Jay needs some interviewing experience.  My
memory is probably faulty, but I think he did a better job interviewing when
he was replacing Johnny on Monday and Tuesday that he does now.

Granted, that takes a considerable effort on his part.  Especially since
some of movies and books are real stinkers.  But not *everything* can be

Sorry, but when you always say everything is so great, it sounds phony.

           On another Dave Topic, one of the funnies Top Ten Lists I ever
       saw was entitled (roughly) "Top Ten Rejected Arnold Schwarzenegger
       Movie Lines", done completely straight by Arnold himself!  I do not
       remember all the lines, but my favorites were (some paraphrased):

           "I abhor violence."
           "Let's sit down and talk about this instead of killing each
       other with Uzis." 
           "Help, Letterman!  Help!"
           "Ouch, a papercut!"

           These need to be said in a thick Austrian accent. :^)

"My, what a lovely lace doily."
"Anybody else like show tunes?"
