:down: I'm happy for him that he's making a change that he feels will benefit his well-being but it's going to be a very high bar for his replacement to live up to. I'll give the show a chance and see how it goes. Same for Colbert as I'm not sure I'll like his being out of character when he takes over Letterman. Have never been a big Letterman fan--just didn't see what the big deal was--but will be interesting to see if Colbert makes the show his own while playing it straight.

I get it that other people thought he was. I just don't share the sentiment. :smile2: It didn't help my dislike of him when he was rude to Steve when he appeared on Letterman several years ago. It wasn't just me who noticed either. We got a lot of feedback from fans saying they felt the same.
