Leno, Letterman, and the Super Secret Secret

Letterman and Leno have a feud some say but I contend they are actually conspiring to develop a national character based on being weird--Letterman-- and on being pushy and presumptuous--Leno.  Letterman is the ultimate weird kid who grew up (or really didn't) into a weird adult.  As he tries to shape your kid's brains you may ask what is he qualified to turn your kids into?  What is his quirkiness but an excuse to realize how better off you are to change the channel!  It's sad the networks--first NBC then CBS--saw the need to hire Letterman after ACTUALLY seeing his act.  He is an example of what kids should not end up as--curiously amused by stupid logic but never able to integrate it into something useful.

Leno on the other hand is a presumptuous bully who has ALWAYS been a bully by my standards.  As a Massachussets native he must think his 'boys network' is amusing to everyone including women who he almost totally ignores as a target audience.  His jokes are written by guys, for guys.  He's forced by the format of an hour-long talk show to fill time and interview actresses.  Why does he though really?  He's uncomfortable interviewing actresses and female guests--and he's not that great with male guests either!  As you think of any typical interview think about the sparring and uncomfortable edge which leaves you wondering and empty at best and thinking why should you tune in again. He is always trying to get to a spot where people are comfortable with him sitting there next to him.  He needs to be nice--it's contagious and it's not a contagious depression if you're actually trying to be nice.  His ego demands that people tow his trash everywhere and it's a burden for the guests on his show and us the diminishing audience--we're 'dinosaurs.'  

It's a legal--because the FCC licensed the network--mugging and who is there to complain to for late nights being wasted by the double-L's--Leno and Letterman. 

It's a legal kidnapping being perpetrated by the networks who can't seem to shake off the stupid from their suits as far as hiring Letterman goes.  When NBC hired Leno it was a curious choice as they chose bulk joke capacity--Leno's big-- over broadly funny material from Conan O'Brien. 

Who would make that choice and who cares if Leno goes to another network--let ABC try to integrate Leno into their herd of dinosaurs with acne.  I don't think ANY network could ever have made Leno palatable to a broad audience--meaning women.

NBC/CBS late night IS the broad street bullies!
