Dark horse...Ellen. Has always said she wanted to do a late night show.

Craig Ferguson is easily the best late night guy going IMO, and has been for awhile. That being said, I have serious doubts that his late night deconstruction schtick will go over well with the masses. I don't think most folks will get it.

The article I read said it won't be Ferguson, and I can understand that on account of him being just weird. I'm not convinced Stewart will ever leave Comedy Central; Colbert, maybe. Chelsea Handler seems like a fit for me; she is even just now conveniently leaving her E! show, and in the announcement she said she'd like to do something network. Hmm.
If Ellen would do it, they'd take her in a second, I should think. She's insanely popular. The only other person I can think of is Steve Harvey, but I think he likes where he is. |

I do wonder if Leno will be a contender. It's the kind of safe play CBS would make, and it would attract the older audience.

Nah, Leno won't do it. He's as old as Dave; if he wanted to keep talk-showing into his 70's, he would have just stayed where he was.

I just can't picture Handler for some reason. She's obviously very popular on her show and I know her stand up tour draws huge crowds, but for some reason I just can't see her being Dave's successor.
If I'm CBS I have Colbert on the phone immediately. |

I'm a firm believer that if it is not Ferguson it is someone who is unknown.

Chevy Chase is free again. After that, I'd probably try to re-ignite The Magic Hour and top it off with the stylings of Pat Sajak.

I was also thinking Jon Oliver, but he's just starting an HBO show, and I don't think they'd put two Brits on consecutively.
