The thing of it is, having actually good interviews has never really been central to the American late-night talk show as an institution. There are exceptions, but they're mostly marginal and kind of unpopular. It's just not the point of the format.

Dave's always been primarily a comedian.

Yeah, he does kind of suck at it.

And I'm not really a fan of his humor, so even when he had someone on I liked on his network show, I usually didn't watch. And it almost always made me cringe if I did.

But a lot of talk show hosts aren't really great at it, but their enthusiasm or the skill of the guest can sometimes cover that.

I thought he was retiring for good?...

(Anonymous) 2018-01-23 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
From network television, yeah. But I bet Netflix offered him a shit ton of money and creative freedom for this series.

(Anonymous) 2018-01-24 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay. I thought the retirement was final.

(Anonymous) 2018-01-23 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
He's also a shit person. Did you forget that, OP/everyone itt?

Save the tumblr style "friendly reminders" for tumblr, nonny. You'll get more internet points that way.

ehhhhhhhh. First, I'm never sure about how to (or whether to) bring up those things in conversations that aren't about them, especially when it's something that's relatively ambiguous like with Letterman.

Second, I think there's different degrees of terrible person, and that effects how we think and talk about these things. There's a point where something probably should be mentioned in every conversation, and there's a point where it doesn't need to be. And I don't know where the line is, and I don't know which side of it Letterman falls on, but again, I think there's ambiguity and subjectivity.
