Do you watch the whole talk show episode?

Me personally weather it be morning or late night I do not watch the whole show. I usually only really watch the monologue and not much else. Sometimes the shows have interesting skits on that are worth watching. However, myself I don't care to watch it further than the monologue as I really don't care to hear about this or that celeb's latest book, movie, or tv show. Anyone else feel the same?

I really don't watch talk shows. I kind of find them boring myself. But the times that my wife makes me watch them I only watch if it is someone I am interested in. And then I only watch their interview and not the rest of the show.

Hmmm....I don't know. I seem to always watch a show from beginning to end, whether it's a talk show or regular show. If the guests don't really interest me then I ususally don't bother tuning in. I guess I do that because I don't want to feel like I missed something in the show. Interesting question though. Have a nice day and happy myLotting!!!

Kind of with you on this. I could care less about all the celebs wonderful lives and tons of money they have and how great they think they are. IF it is someone that actually has something to say with intelligence and education, I mite stay tuned, but most of it is the celebs and wealthyjust yammering on about how great they are and how rich and how wonderful life is cause they got it all!

I'm not a big talk show buff. I have watched talk shows when I knew there'd be someone on I wanted to see.. but other than that I tend to skip it all together.

Yeah, I do that too when I alternate between Jay Leno and David Letterman. Well, I used too, havent been watching any television for some time now. But I usually start at the monologue then to the extra funny stuff they do. But depending on the guests, thats much about it...

The only talk show that i always watch is oprah. Especially when oprah is giving out gifts and prizes.

I don't think I'd want to watch that episode as much I'd like to be on the receiving end of those gifts! I know that's part of the thrill of that show is what nifty gadget or product are the audience members going to be presented with.

It really depends on the talk show host and who the guest is. Sometimes I will just watch the monologue and sometimes I will continue to watch to see a specific guest if I like that guest. I won't watch the thing if I don't like or know one of the guests. Except for Craig Ferguson, I will always watch his whole show because even if I don't know or like the guest, Craig always makes the interviews hilarious and I enjoy watching his entire show.

When it comes to talk shows, I usually only watch what interests me the most. Depending on the theme of the show and the guests, that will determine how much of the taalk show I really will watch. it usually isn't all of the showm, but there can always be an exception to this rule.

I do catch a few here and there but not because I make it a point to watch. As I no loner have cable so I am limited to local programming, and really while working online I put the TV for background noise, so most times I am not really watching. I do catch a scene or two simply because it amazes me on how the world lives to day and how they allow them selves to live. But not really a great deal of interest as the outcomes are predictable.

I actually think the interviews are the most interesting parts usually. Not always, and it kind of depends on the host as well, of course, but in general.
