Letterman was funny in about 1986. I was in High School. He was "edgy".

Now, he's "old".

And unlike guys such as Bob Hope and George Burns, he has no clue on how to turn “old” to his advantage.

Carson wiped the floor with all of them.

Watch some of his stuff with guests like Sinatra, Dean Martin, Don Rickles, Carol Wayne, Jack Benny, George Gobal, Glen Cambell, Bob Hope, etc etc.

And the Tonight Show Band which kicked ass.

Letterman was funny in about 1986. I was in High School. He was "edgy".
Now, he's "old".

And we've since realized that his "edgy" stuff wasn't all that great to begin with. Check out the Letterman episode of "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" (Jerry Seinfeld's latest project). All that comes across from the guy is "Bitter, condescending old fart". The show is pretty good, though... with the worthwhile guests (such as Don Rickles).

Exactly. About that exact time I was in college and I remember my RA (dorm monitor) knocking on my door telling me I had to pipe down because I was laughing so loud.

Last I heard of Letterman continues to simply yell at Conservatives to get off his lawn!
