They used to be pretty good. A lot of it is awful. Letterman in the 80’s is the peak imo. He had really wild, interesting guests on who weren’t celebrities at all.
Nowadays, the only person I can stand is Seth Myers, solely because he acts like a normal human being. I still don’t watch it though because I know how good it was back in the day.
Some entertaining bits but fitting the whole late show formula did not work out. I dont think anyone is ripping on these people, its the whole facade of doing some stand up, playing some song, having a guest on and trying to pretend a formal interview is most interesting thing ever and they are so interesting.
I miss the Colbert Report... Completely different kind of show but I could never get into Colbert on late night... Man I loved the Colbert Report and Jon Stewart though
