I only included current late-night talk show hosts, and I set Chelsea Handler into the options just because I wanted to include a female host and a Netflix show.

Could've added Samantha Bee.

Also, no Dick Cavett?

...I guess Charlie Rose of these guys, though I hesitate to call him late-night.

Dick Cavett isn't a current late-night host according to this list, where Charlie Rose is listed as one.

Am I the only one who's always getting confused when they see Colbert's or Oliver's show? I can hardly tell them apart and I have to think about actively whose show I'm currently watching. Undecided

Sorry, had a dyslexic moment and thought Johnny Carson was on the list.

Charlie Rose doesn't really belong in this category.

Also everyone but Colbert and Oliver are completely unwatchable for me. And even with those two I don't watch them with any regularity.

I can't believe Corden, the guy from Gavin and Stacey or whatever, has made it over there.

Then again, Piers Morgan made it for a brief time so I guess anything is possible.

The only one I could watch is Andy Cohen, because he's not serious and just loves to have fun and drink with his guests.

They do, but whenever I see a clip of either, I nonetheless have to think about if I'm watching the initiator of the Hungry for Power Games or if I'm watching the guy who regularly delivers us lectures on countries we think about so little.

John Oliver
----
Then Maher, Conan, Corden, Kimmel, and Fallon in no particular order. I like Colbert, but his writers are terrible on his new show.

Samantha Bee, who was wrongly left off the list.

As far as those listed: Seth Meyers, Carson Daly, Jimmy Kimmel, or John Oliver.

Almost all of these are ghastly.  If I wanted to be preached at or lectured to, I'd go to church.

Conan is OK.  His shtick wears thin sometimes, but at least he has a sense of humor and ability to poke fun at himself and not take everything so seriously.

On occasion Maher is also OK, particularly when he ventures off-script and allows himself to loosen up a tad and just be himself.  This doesn't happen frequently enough for me to call myself a fan of the show, though.

No love for Trevor Noah? Tongue
I think he was a wrong choice for succeeding Jon Stewart.

Enjoyable: Colbert, Conan, Charlie Rose

Watchable: Oliver, Kimmel, Cohen

Not Funny, but inoffensive: Noah, Hardwick, Daly, Meyers

Cause me to grind my teeth: Maher, Fallon, Handler, Samantha Bee

I have no idea who David Steinberg is.




There's probably no greater indicator of being a normie than thinking Jimmy Fallon is funny.

Conan O'Brien easily, followed by Bill Maher. Jimmy Fallon is ok. I don't like the others
