Full interview below, until CBS yanks it.

Conan O’Brien continued his gag of having his writers come up with a list of options for him (a continuation of another bit where he listed some of the rumors). The include several good jabs, including one at the end that seems sarcastic only in Conan actually doing it. Take a look.

Meanwhile, Conan’s old rival, Craig Ferguson, responded with a simple ‘who gives a f—?’, and mocked the fact that himself and Letterman were now the stable ones.

But one person who really enjoyed himself was David Letterman. A good chunk of his jokes, including his Top Ten, delved into the subject. Including one great sight gag I won’t describe, you have to see it on video (which I will post when it comes online). And he closed it all off wondering if he, in fact, still had a show.

UPDATE: And now Colbert weighs in, with the help of Morgan Freeman.

Let’s hope she had great legs:

For his part, David Letterman said before the top ten list that he didn’t even know Palin was going to be in town and issued an apology, stating that the joke was about Bristol, not Willow Palin. Furthermore, he reminds people that he’s a comic and he doesn’t always have the best taste.

But the real story here is John Ziegler who makes a complete ass of himself on live television because he disagrees with people. This is the problem with debate in the country, and is really a microcosm for all the problems with the Republican Party at the moment. Brewer shows herself to be open and willing to talk with him about the actual content of the interview, and tries to ask some questions. Ziegler responds by insulting her, her network, the media in general and basically does everything but answer the questions he’s asked. Rather than sit down and have a conversation as to why David Letterman would make such a joke and why Sarah Palin would call attention to it by actually responding to it, he proceeds to accuse NBC and CBS of–basically–being in a liberal conspiracy. What Ziegler must realize is that NBC would never do anything to give favors to David Letterman. The late night ratings battle is one of the most long lasting feuds on television. And Letterman may have the upper hand again.

But even Sarah Palin’s bizarre reaction to being made fun of by Letterman can’t compare to Rush Limbaugh’s reaction Brewer letting Ziegler trash her network for four minutes on the air. Now that’s funny.

Letterman, meanwhile, took the oppertunity to mock himself for not getting the tonight show. Take a look.

A real highlight is the co-pilot, Sully’s Paul Schaffer, who has a dry, witty line for every question. Also, Letterman’s question for the flight attendents proves he still asks the tough questions, no matter the interview. Sure, Leno has the ratings and Stewart has the friends, but Letterman has, quite simply, the best talk show going.
