Personally my preference is Craig Ferguson. I think he's got the freshest approach to hosting a talk show. His opening monologues are not fully scripted. He free styles a lot. He treats his guest warmly yet irreverently. I started to check out his show after he was profiled on the Sunday Morning Show on CBS. I'm glad I did. Right now, with a tiny budget, he puts on a better show than a lot of the other, more established hosts. He reminds me now of Johnny of the late 60's, Letterman of the mid 80's, and Conan of the late 90's when they were at their best if not their peak. He is the only latenighter who can make me laugh out loud night after night these days. I still enjoy Dave and Conan on occasion, but Craig has become must see TV. Thank God for TIVO. Nice to see a comic come into his own before your very eyes.
