Leno's car collection gets points....but Lewis Black should have his own - uncensored - tv show.

Conan is better in my opinion

Conan is clearly better. Leno hasn't cracked a funny line in a loooong time. The best part of his show is headlines, and those have nothing to do with him.

"Chewbacca stuck in a glory hole" FTW!

Could you get on that ASAP? Use your evil powers and tell Comedy Central that Mind of Mencia has to go. Black's Root of all Evil doesn't do him any justice either. Get in there with your sledge hammer.

Now that's an idea...

Off to polish my sledgehammer to a mirror finish, be back shortly.

My favorite is the episode when they kept randomly cutting to a police car chase (read: a matchbox car chase on the floor of the lobby; you could see the string they used to pull the cars.) Since live TV car chases get better ratings they wanted to tap that pie. It was great.

He gets my vote.



Now you're talking!

I think Leno has better writers too, but honestly, I haven't watched much of either one for a long time. I read his column in Popular Mechanics.

Leno looks better in HD too. Conan's band used to be much, much better, but they seem to have lost it.

who's Craig Furgeson?

Lewis Black is brilliantly hilarious, but he's not much of an interviewer. He doesn't connect on "Root of all Evil" either.

He's a late night talk show host on CBS, its called "The Late Late Show". He also played as the boss of Drew Carey on the Drew Carey show.

Had to go with Conan who can totally loose-it (Nostril Hairs flaring and all) in full HD at any time....

Jay is just in it for the tax write offs. He doesn't even pretend to make an effort anymore.... jeesh why even bother!

and hes not very funny and i can never figure out what hes saying with his thick British accent.. I'm surprised hes lasted so long considering he competes directly with Conando.

Craig Ferguson is on TV because he's cheap.
at least, that's the only justification i can figure.
