    I heard Ebersol is in talks with ABC to host his own late-night talk show.

    Give me Kilborn over any of them; Craigers knew how to interview, interact with his guests; Very, very funny.

    Ferguson is also pretty funny as well.

    Rivers as a guest host was pretty good (pre-facial surgery).

    Think Jay or Dave would ever do something like that?

    Great stuff.

    Love Conan, but I have to agree. No host makes me laugh as consistently as Ferguson.

    I can't vote in a poll cause i'm on my phone, but my vote is for Leno.

    I think I asked this on another thread, but does anyone know what happened to Kilborn?

    I always thought he was great.

    I've only seen Ferguson's show a couple times. He's very good, but I don't think he'll ever be able to take over the 11:30 spot.

    IMDB says he occasionally shows up in a movie.

    How much did he get paid in five years of Late Late Show? Enough to walk away from the rat race?
