Not sure. Part could be Letterman's ratings have been declining the past couple years, thus giving Ferguson a smaller lead in to work with. Could also be the newer younger competition. Seth Meyers is new and still in the "honeymoon" stage, so a lot of people who might normally watch Ferguson could be checking him out right now. Before that it was Jimmy Fallon, who on average beat Fergusion 4 out of 5 episodes

Speaking of Seth, has anyone here watched any of his show yet? I haven't been inclined to, b/c he always comes across to me like...I dunno...like the high school varsity football captain who's likable enough but who is also rather bland once you have an actual conversation with him.

I'm going to miss him. I haven't watched him regularly in a long time now, but he is one of the best. And of course, I have to give my love to a fellow Hoosier (okay, I wasn't raised there, I moved to Maryland at a fairly young age. Whatever. :) )

I truly hope he has his mother Dorothy on the show at least one more time before he retires next year. She's almost 93 now, so I don't know how likely that would be, but I loved when he would have her on his Thanksgiving show (in her kitchen in Indianapolis), and guess what kind of pies she baked that year. I even bought her cookbook at an antique store once. :)

Speaking of which, here's a clip of her promoting it on his show!
