No Writer’s Guild Advantage for the Late Show

Just because there’s more jokes on the Late Show from the writers doesn’t mean there’s more good jokes. Many parts of David Letterman’s opening monologue seem mostly hit or miss in comparison to his rivals. However, there is one advantage Letterman does have – an intrepid new segment near the end of each show where Letterman interviews one of the staff members. Considering the last staff member recounted her hectic first day working with Courtney Love – I wouldn’t be surprised if some of these workers were more interesting then the guests themselves, and that just might put Letterman and the Late Show on-top during the rest of the strike. The Late Show airs on CBS at 10:35 PM.
