I wish H. L. Mencken could see this. I cannot believe that this non-event is getting so much coverage. And people are eating it up. Ironically, this "feud" is probably about as real as those in professional wrestling.

I'd be more impressed if Dave would marry his son's mother, so the kid wouldn't be a bastard....C'mon, Dave, do the right thing!

Who knew they were even fighting? Only the 2 pm chocolate eating couch potatoes.

Has Oprah done a show yet where she walks on water and makes the blind see again?

He should never have made up with Dr. Phil. His "This guy is crazy" bits were a riot.

Must see Late Night TV ended when Johnny Carson retired.

The cold war between television titans Oprah Winfrey and David Letterman

Never heard about it, I guess I'm out of the loop. "G"

Oh, friend, Dave LOVES, I mean loves Oprah. He's been hurt for years that she wouldn't do his show. I plan to watch!

We TIVO Dave and watch it the next day.

He's milking this non-event for all the airtime he can get, and it's hilarious. I mean, who cares about Oprah?

Dave knows that Oprah is a fraud, and she's scared to death of him and what he could do to her if he gets her in that seat, but she's still the most powerful woman on TV and Dave wants a piece of that. She's more powerful than Johnny was at his peak.

Dave had a huge picture of her behind him when he made the announcement that she'll be on the show, and then he and Paul riffed on the alleged feud, her greatness, and whether she'll cancel when she sees how they treat her even before she gets there.

She's promoting a Broadway show across the street from the Ed Sullivan Theater, and Dave knows this whole thing is good for the Great White Way.

So they're going to shoot guests? I guess it would be good for ratings for a few episodes but then they'd have a hard time getting guests on. IMHO, of course.

I have to admit a minor interest in it. Remembering the jokes from the 90s from Letterman about Dr. Phil and Oprah being married, the running joke that Oprah would not come on the show, etc., it is mildly amusing she's finally going to do the show.

Sorry, but the only things worth watching on Letterman are the babes on "Will It Float?"

(IMHO)

I can't believe it either!! I love Martina McBride, and she is coming to Springfield. One can win front row seats to her concert by watching Oprah. I don't love anyone enough to watch Oprah in order to win tickets!!

I would like to believe this happens, but I was disappointed by the "the Super Bowl of love" fisaco. I can't be hurt like that again.

Oafrah and Goofy Letterman, two people of the most overpaid people on the planet next to baseball players.
