3.0 out of 5 stars Not the same when Dave isn't doing it live, October 27, 2002

By	William McNeill (Cumberland, RI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Some of the lists are very funny, but it's missing something in book form because you're missing Dave's delivery. Also, a one-joke book gets kind of thin quick. I recommend only reading three or four lists at a time so the novelty doesn't wear off. Great bathroom reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Lists Just Keep on Coming, October 5, 2001

By	D "sub" (Metro Detroit, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This collection is from the Late Show era, not the Late Night era. However, believe it or not, these top ten lists are funny enough to read and reread. For those of you like myself, who are Letterman fans, this collection, like all previous collections, borders on the essential. Do yourself a favor, though, and buy the Late Night editions as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars too much fun, May 8, 2007

Lettermans' Top Ten List have been a form of humour I have enjoyed for the longest time. Even the older versions (if you're old enough to remember celebs and politicans are still as funny today as they were the night they hit the airwaves. This book is no exception, plus the added bonus of a dress pattern for the husky bride/ or those renewing their vows.
