bob barker imo is the gold standard. i grew up watching him and to be honest, had a hard time appreciating just how amazing he was at hosting until drew carrey took over.
nothing against drew, but compared to bob he just doesn't fill the gaps, maybe he will in time, i have faith. but bob was a legend and i have yet to see his equal.
oh crap i just realized you were talking about late night hosts, im gonna leave this up bc bob doesn't deserve to be deleted, but in terms of late night i really enjoyed conan before he made the switch to primetime, but now i really enjoy jimmy fallon and jay leno and his consistancy.
Agree. I thought the tonight show was much better with him.(If CBS wanted better ratings, they shouldn't have put two talk shows right next to each other...)
