Late Show Highlights

Phew, another late update, sorry about that. Here were my favorite monologue jokes from last night’s Late Show with David Letterman:

Here’s how cold it was today in New York City: they awarded the Nobel Peace prize to inventor of the Slanket. It was so cold today that Senator John McCain’s teeth were chattering…on his nightstand.

How about the New York Yankees? The Yankees look like they’re going to go from a four-man rotation to a three-man rotation, and they got this idea from Madonna.

Healthcare has now passed the Senate Finance Committee. I’m already covered; I gotta pretty good plan here at CBS. Anytime anything happens to me, and I drop dead, I get to play a cadaver on CSI. I go to the CBS doctor.

The desk segment started with an excert from Paul’s new book and ended with the funny Top Ten Signs Your Toddler Watches Too Much Television.

Tina Fey was the first couch guest. What’s not to like about Tina? She’s such a cool nerd. She just looks like the kind of person who would be fun to hang out with at a library on a Saturday night. Here is a funny clip about how old she was before she lost her virginity. Overall the interview was fun to watch.

Chris “Mad Dog” Russo was the second couch guest. Chris is a XM radio host, which probably explains why he was so loud and excited during his interview. I was concerned that he was going to quickly become annoying, but instead, he was charismatic and fun. Surprisingly, Chris’ energy level was balanced Letterman’s mellowness very well.

Mika was the musical guest. He was fine. My favorite part is that his drummer is female. Personally, I think a law should be passed stating that all rock and roll band drummers must be female.

A good show. I give it:

Late Show Highlights

This is ridiculously late and I’m sorry. I’d feel bad if I wasn’t already so tired. Anyhoo, it’s Letterman time. Here were my favorite monologue jokes from last night’s Late Show with David Letterman:

It’s spring time. Saturday was the first day of spring. You can always tell when it’s spring in New York City. The carjackers, when it’s spring time, start coming in through the sunroof.

Coming to work today I went through Central Park. I saw an old lady, this was kinda cute, she was sitting on a bench feeding the squirrels…to her pit bull.

Have you filled out a census form? Here’s the deal: Ten questions in ten minutes. That’s what they’re saying, ten questions in ten minutes. Coincidentally, that’s how John McCain chose his running mate.

The first desk segment was a very funny story about how an audience member thought the Late Show promo that aired during the Super Bowl and stared Letterman, Oprah and Leno was a commercial for nacho chips. I have searched high and wide on the internet for the clip but can not find it, which is too bad because it was a great segment. Instead, you’ll have to settle for the Top Ten Signs You’re Having a Bad Spring Break:

Tina Fey was the first couch guest. Besides staring in 30 Rock she’s in the new film Date Night. I really like Tina. She’s sharp, has a terrific sense of humor and is fun to watch. The interview was good. I’m glad CBS released the clip where she impersonated and told stories about Tracy Morgan. It was my favorite part.

Bryan Cranston was the second couch guest. He stars in the AMC show Breaking Bad. I’ve been a fan of Bryan since Malcolm in the Middle. I think he’s a really talented actor, and I’m not surprised he’s won two Best Actor Emmys for his role on Breaking Bad. I was glad to see an interview with him. He’s a cool guy. I just wish the interview had been longer. In this clip he tells the story of his recent trip visiting a relative at a nudist colony:

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts were the musical guest. She can still rock.

Good show. I give it:
