Friday October 30th Late Night Talk Show Recap

Letterman: Dick Cheney portrait with following eyes. Larry King has trouble saying E Coli. More fun than reading the Palin novel: getting broadsided by an ambulance. Kids in Halloween costumes: girl dressed as Kate Gossellin’s hair, girl dressed as, not in, a slanket, Mahmoud, Mohmar Kadafi and Hugo Chavez, tupperware full of leftovers, vibrating Cheesecake Factory disc, Mayor Bloomberg who can’t see over his podium, the stuff that comes with sushi, Ted Williams frozen head stuck in tuna can, balloon boy, and Joaquin Phoenix. Top 10 signs you’re at a lame Halloween party. Regis Philbin talks about a variety of topics with Dave including trying to sing to him. The commercial bumper was all the kids eating pizza, but the Joaquin Phoenix one was still in costume. Then Regis and Dave hit each other with pies. Weezer performs in snuggies with Weezer written on them and all the kids on the living room set behind them.

Conan: La Bamba is the only one who dressed for Halloween and it is a french maid outfit. A Halloween Dose of Joy was the usual puppies this time dressed up with Frankenstein heads and black shirts. The staff member who was complaining about the lack of a black drinking day shows a video of him at Halloween in Universal Studios including going into a haunted house and showing his own haunted black house filled with things black people are afraid of. A guy comes out with the world’s biggest pumpkin and discusses it with Conan, then they go outside and Conan talks to a monster truck driver who then proceeds to run it over. After the break Conan is with Andy to talk about it and Conan says he ran to the pumpkin after it was first smashed not knowing that the truck was coming back a second time so he had to run for his life. Susie Essman. Alice in Chains perform.

Fallon: Jimmy’s weekly thank you letters. Before the break Jimmy does an ad for Left for Dead 2 just talking about the game, STUPID. Wanda Sykes talks about her new late night show, her wife and shows a picture of her in an Elmo costume on the Today show. Josh Charles talks about his career and shows a clip of himself doing really good at standup at age 10. The Amazing Kreskin does a trick with audience members where the tables underneath their hands shake around. Just some crap where the pressure of the arms on the cheap tables makes them vibrate around. Andrew Bird performs.

Ferguson: The set has fancy Halloween lighting to start the show while the Crocodile puppet talks. Lauren Graham. Jessalyn Gilsig. Fruit Bats perform.

Last Call: From the Museum of Death. Masi Oka talks about his role on Heroes and his love for manga. An artist who paints on nude women. The Doves perform.
