| does anybody like David Letterman? I don't think he is funny at all. I can barely watch his show and the only reason I watch it every now and then is when he has a guest on that I want to see. |

| Used to really like it when I was in school and stayed up late. Went to a live taping about 8 years ago. I have a job now so can't stay up that late to watch it |

| He was the best in the late 80's through the mid 90's. Now when I catch it once every 8-12 months it's pretty awful. He has changed with age. |

| I haven't really watched since joining the Army (staying up til past midnight is hard when you have to wake up at 5:30 am), but I always preferred him over Leno. |

| Some of his interviews are actually alright. If I do sit down and watch late night stuff, I only watch Letterman in the 35 minutes between the end of Conan and the start of Ferguson. |

| Used to watch religiously about 15 years ago. The only time I watch now is when Jack Hannah is on. Their chemistry together is awesome!

| He is so liberal, he would have to be VERY funny for me to watch his show, and he's not. |

| I haven't watched much at all since the 90s, but I always thought he was great at interviewing guests, and allowing them to be funny and steal the show. |

| There was not a bigger Letterman fan than me, but his show has turned into a political message for liberals and its hard to watch now if your not like minded. It is sad because Letterman's early stuff was groundbreaking comedy. I still have boxes of vhs tapes of the show from the 80's. |
