Originally posted 02/02/2008 10:00AM

Paris Hilton's Friday night guest appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman differed from her last, in September, when the CBS host couldn't stop badgering her about her just-finished jail sentence.

"We have a lovely woman who's been in prison," Letterman said Friday, explaining why he previously behaved the way he did. "I put those two things together and my head starts spinning."

"Dave has been off the air for eight long weeks," Senator Clinton, appearing via satellite from the campaign in Iowa, said at the outset of CBS's Late Show with David Letterman. "Tonight, he's back. Oh, well. All good things come to an end."

David Letterman, Jay Leno Set to Go on Hold?

Originally posted 11/03/2007 06:25PM

David Letterman, Jay Leno, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Conan O’Brien may have to button their lips come Monday – due to the proposed strike of the Writers Guild of America.

If the issues of money that divide the two sides – the writers on one side, producers on the other – do not get resolved by then, all talk shows will have to go into reruns or be taken off the air temporarily (as will any programming that requires newly-written material, such as sitcoms, dramas and made-for-TV movies).
