The nature of this show is very different than the nightly hour. The guests seem to be people who Dave wants to talk to, rather than a parade of folks with projects to plug. And Dave spends a lot of time with these guests, so the final product is certainly going to be edited for length. As far as the Kanye show goes, I watched it a couple years ago when it first came out, and very little of it stuck. If I try, I can remember that there was some goofy stuff that Ye said, but nothing that struck me as newsworthy. I don't think this show is aiming for newsworthy, and the fact that all of this hasn't come out until years later is an indication of that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
