Best Talk Show Hosts

Most people can't go through their day without watching their favorite talk show hosts. They have to watch Oprah in the afternoon, or they have to make sure that they catch the next episode of Dr. Phil. I'm kind of like that too, I really enjoy watching Regis and Kelly in the mornings. That is pretty much the one show that I'll do catch each day. So that being said, here my picks for the best talk show host.

#1. Live With Regis And Kelly
I would have to Regis and Kelly as number one. Kelly is a bit ditsy, and then kind of blond at times, but I believe she's the one that holds that show together. Some of the new technology and some of the jokes simply go over Regis's head, so Kelly is pretty much the one that will say, "that doesn't make sense" or "let's clarify something". But they're incredibly funny together, have a good monologue, and they also talk about the issues.

#2. The Late Late Show
The second best talk show host would have be Craig Ferguson, because he is just extremely funny. He makes fun of himself, and in a lot of ways I believe that he might be better than David Letterman, he is just laugh out loud funny. He hosts the Late Late Show, which he has hosted it since January 3, 2005. I don't know how to explain him, you just have to watch his show, he is just so incredibly funny.

#3. Dave Letterman
The next best talk show host is David Letterman. He can just pull off these goofy jokes, and look at you with a serious face, which makes him even funnier. He has become well respected a lot of Hollywood stars have gone on his show, announced pregnancies, and such. He does sometimes keep asking his guests uncomfortable questions, but they will just change the subject. He is just entertaining, and his "Top Ten" lists are genius

#4. Ellen Degeneres
Another great talk show host would be Ellen DeGeneres. She knows how to make a even the biggest guests feel welcome, she gives them gifts,and makes them laugh. She just does a lot of fun things, like dancing with their audience, and she's just been named one of the nations favorite talk show host on a Yahoo poll, even going over Oprah.

#5. Oprah Winfrey
Last but not least is Opera Winfrey, because she is the quenn of daytime. She tackles the issues, does an incredible job of bringing things out of people, and her guests feel comfortable talking to her. She is also gets involved in world issues, and is now working on her TV special "The Big Give" on ABC, where she sends out teams of people who go out and try to help regular people with their needs.

So which ever talk show host is your favorite, I do hope you enjoyed reading my list as much as I enjoyed writing it.
