Larry vs Piers

For many years I would watch Larry King do his show on CNN when I was not interested in the drivel on primetime network TV. I always thought that Larry was a good host and that he asked very interesting questions that would draw out the guest. I was sorry to see him retire – I even watched his last show and got choked up at all the people who participated in the tribute.

Now Piers Morgan has taken that slot on CNN. He is a very good conversationalist. His style is very different from Larry’s, and that is to be expected. I watched his first show with Oprah and learned a lot about Oprah that I did not know. I missed the Howard Stern interview, but tonight the guest is Condoleezza Rice and I am enjoying this interview very much.
