Letterman
Tara and I are sitting here watching The Late Show with Dave Letterman, and for the second night this week Dave is out sick.
Now, in the past when Dave was out they would play an old episode for us. Instead they are having guest hosts on the show, and bad ones at that.
Last night it was Bruce Willis. I like Bruce Willis in the movies, but he sucked. Bad. Tonight the guest host is John McEnroe (I may be spelling it wrong, but I care so little about that arrogant has been that I am not even going to bother looking it up.) and guess what, John McEnroe sucks too. I thought it wasn't possible to be worse than Bruce Willis was last night, but he really is bad.
To add insult to injury Paul isn't with the band tonight. We found this out when John was introducing the band and turned to them and said, "Hey, where is Paul?" as if didn't know that Paul wasn't going to be there.
Is CBS trying to run this show into the ground or what? Tom Arnold came out as a guest and is sticking around for a while, so at least his Ridlin deprived personality is keeping things lively. I really hope that when Dave comes back he stays true to his cynical form and makes fun of bad television. Even if it is his own.
