ISTP? My opinion has become "INTP, most likely."

It doesn't get any better than the way he rips on Richard Simmons.

Yes, ISTP. He used to be my favorite tv host, but I don't think he's been funny for a long time now. He was much better in his NBC days.

He's probably the I-est I that's ever hosted a television show. I'm not good at typing people, but because I'm so intimately familiar with and fond of him, I'll take a guess. INFJ.

That's often why I can't type someone properly. Especially Letterman, he's great all around.

You could be right about INFJ, I really don't know. Great guy though, just great.

If Letterman's an NF, then I'm the king of Uganda.

I'm starting to lean toward my original notion of ISTP again...

If Letterman's an S, then I'm a transvestite.

He's got some N in him. He's definitely some kind of xNxP. I don't know enough about him to speculate beyond that.

So far we have

Definitely xNFJ
Definitely SP
and Definitely xNxP.

Maybe we should just leave it at "Beautiful human being."

With a gun to my head, I would say INTP.

Edit: On second thought, I'm starting feel pretty split about the I/E.

ENTP. This thread hasn't changed my opinion either.

He's a snarky twat, and not blow your head off clever enough to be an ENTP.

ISTP. 'though introverted thinker sounds much too pretentious for him.

I saw some Dick Cavett interviews a little while back. Now there's a host I can fall for.

Letterman is an introvert. He's admitted to being one and being painfully shy. At least I read that somewhere.. I was a little surprised.

ISTP or even INTP.

I will say he definitely does strike me as introverted. He's not the kind of guy who would strike up a conversation in the grocery store because he likes your t-shirt, which I've seen ENTPs do.

He also demonstrates great character for a person of any type at all.

Opinion. I think he is. He also makes a lot of those quotes you'll only see N's coming up with.

INTP seems about right to me.

And yet that asshole Leno gets more viewers. I guess likability is more important than substance to late night viewers.

It's not so much Leno as The Tonight Show. Leno's a funny guy, but the demographic they're going for *coughSJcough* isn't interested in biting, subtle humor.
