Is there a talk show thread already?
Anyway..... the only talk show I catch nowadays is
Letterman because it's the only one available and conveniently shown around siesta time
. I used to love watching talk shows. But I don't watch it as often anymore (so many other shows...so little time!)
On vacation back home in the late 90's, the cable provider from the province where I come from beams all sorts of talk shows from US (live) ---
Letterman of course,
Leno,
Conan (my favorite),
Martin Short's show,
Craig Kilborn's show etc.
At one point,
Arsenio Hall had his own talk show, right? Would have loved to watch at least an episode of
Rosie's show (Survivor episoded) just to see what the hype was all about. Of course we get to see
Oprah on two channels here (cable and Studio 23)...and that tacky show by
Jenny Jones on Studio 23 also (pero when I watch it, I still stay glued to the set, hehehe!
). And there's
Jerry Springer (is he still on air?) and tons of other talk shows that we don't get to hear about except on the news.
Then there are the morning shows (
Today, Fox and Friends, Good Morning America --- meron pa ba nito?) which our own local morning shows pattern after. We have
ASYM, Unang Hirit and the shows on Studio 23 (
Breakfast), all of which serve as my alarm clock
...and then at around noon we have the two competing networks' girl-talk shows
(Morning Girls and Sis). And then there are those showbiz talk shows on channel 2 and 7 and Sunday talk shows of
Sharon and
Mel and Jay and the late night show of
Martin (meron pa ba?)....I remember
Edu had a very good talk show a few years back........I could go on and on....
So let's talk...about talk shows....and why don't they ever run out of topics to talk about?
