Letterman with the beard:  Wolf Blitzer......or....a pale Papa Smirf? ;D

Conan O'Brien had a beard too.  Maybe it's a Late Night thing.  They all came back w/out writers, so maybe it's their way of a protest or something ?

What are the odds? 2 of the 4 late nighters thought to do that?

4?  There are 5 late nighters

Why does Letterman even need a writer? He's been using the same gags and the same schtick since the year dot.

If you are counting the late,late,late nighter ok....I went by the 'main' network draws from Leno, Letterman, Conan, Kimmel.....Ferguson plays with the late,late show title or carson daly doing last call...but he was already back.

He looks much older with the beard.

Conan did a great job with no writers.  He can actually improvise.

Letterman with pro writers has a line of dancers doing high kicks holding writers strike signs...Conan(no pro writers), spins a wedding ring and has someone counting how long it spins....what is equal to watching the monkeys at the zoo?

Monkeys are very entertaining.

Just like Prairie Dogs  :)

On the day time soaps, anytime someone went missing for a time they always came back with beards....even the women, I swear. 

Conan or Letterman, who  copied who i wonder?

I thought I heard they both live in Connecticut too...
More thrills on Conan as he takes us on a tour of an overhead catwalk ,(he always wondered what it was for), but I guess he thought WE the viewers, who never see it, wondered as well.  :-\\ :-\\

Just a question, but if you dislike his show so much, why the holy hell do you watch it?

I like variety/talk shows that entertain....when Letterman started, each night he would do something different and eventualy it turned into a 'cookie ctter' show where he will do stardard predictable skits...ie. his Presidental moments where they always show the greats giving a meaningful speach, then show Bush bububububu for words.

As the hosts were all off foir the months, you would think they would create something entertaining for when they return, then when they(Conan)goes for something that makes you say 'is that all he can do' then I tune out..but for the most part viewers, (I),watch expecting to be entertained. After these 2 lame attempts, I was moved to comment to get feedback on this, to find out if anyone else feels mentally insulted..It's a major network and this guy is climbing in the rafters and timing a spinning a ring.
