Lat Night Jokes

What's up people? Sadly it's Monday, but hopefully reflecting on Friday's Late Night Round-Up will help keep the passed weekend fresh in your mind!

Friday was a bit wacky, as there were several guests starring in the jokes and quite a few sketches. Jimmy Kimmel wondered what the new HBO show "Hung," about a man who becomes a male prostitute due to his prodigious endowment, would be like if it actually starred horrific former American Idol contestant William Hung, who dutifully made an appearance.

Letterman revealed his favorite moment from the new "Transformers" movie. Hint: it involves Chastity Bono.

Jimmy Fallon showed why drinking and texting is actually more dangerous than drinking and driving.

Conan showed what type of transformer Larry King would, and also showed a heart-wrenching photo of Joe Lieberman kissing one of the Jonas Brothers. Which one you ask? You'll have to watch to get the crucial detail.

I can hardly wait to see what Letterman can do with this!

Honestly, whomever is in charge of picking these clips, always picks the lamest ones from each host's monologue. I watch or DVR a lot of late night TV, and there is always better material in Conan's, Letterman's, and Kimmel's monologues that don't get shown here.

Also, I agree with some of the others here. Clearly Ferguson and Letterman are the most popular late night hosts with commenters here, but only Letterman seems to get represented in this site's postings. Conan is personally my favorite late night host, but I think Craig has the best monologue out of anyone.

It's all subjective. Why the obsession over who was best, who sucked... who cares.. there's something for everyone.

Wow. Letterman is fine, but the absence of Stewart and Colbert really showed this week.

Great joke by Letterman about Chastity Bono turning into a man.

Now, if Letterman were to turn into a man, that would be something.

It's not a joke until offends someone. So I guess he was successful.

Why are you and lentinelia whining about Letterman?

Jealous?

Poor Jimmy. Nice guy...wron­g job for him. Hope he gets better...

Neither Jimmy is really up to Letterman or Conan. By the way, blog writer Nicholas Graham, it's "past weekend" not "passed weekend." Kisses.

Letterman!!! Fallon was a very close 7th place.

Fallon is struggling too hard; Conan is infantile and basically unwatchable. Craig is better, and Letterman certainly above all the rest, but he looks a bit too old on late night talkshows.

Not very funny. Do watch Craig though. Can be funny as hell!

Fallon sucks beyond belief. Watching his struggle to be funny is painful. Conan is no match for Leno. Dave and Craig are very good though.

The arrogance of Westerners. As if God was a white man frequenting American comedy shows.

A veiled attempt to sell the Iraq War by equating Joe Lieberman with comedy. The same was done with Ari Fleischer.

A great point. Presenting people covered in blood of innocent civilians as funnymen is an abomination.

Why no respect for Craig Ferguson? He RARELY shows up on Huffington, despite being the least formulaic, the least white-bread, and most often, the funniest of the Holy-Trium­virate-plu­s-one cast of late night hosts you feature.

Agreed. Craig is far and away the best late nighter ever. Fallon definitely needs to go to career counseling.

Ferguson is the one true monologuist of all the talk show hosts (Jack Paar was the last one) and doesn't translate well into short clips. The rest of the late night hosts are just doing stand up with some video clips.

Can't say I agree with Ferguson being the best late nighter ever.

Yes, Craig is funnier than all these stiffs. He was even better before they made him wear a suit.

Craig does a great impression of Prince Charles, "The Rather Late Progamme".

Fallon is STILL not funny. Ever so often I check in and am just amazed that he is still on the air.

Ditto... That was my take-away thought too after watching this compilation. Conan continues as the funniest of the late night-ers, with Kimmel a good second.

Sorry. Both of them are pretty bad.
