You're starting off a brand new show, a comeback of sorts and the best you can get are has-beens and a few B list TV actors?

This will not win new audiences over and to survive and excel you need to attract new viewers as well as your old faithfuls.

But I wish him luck.

Most of today celebrities are B list actors and the rest are about 5 seconds away from being has-beens.

Preach.

He better not invite Farrakhan again

OMG, Farrakhan.

No political people. Me and Rudedog will not be watching. lol

Arsenio is going to keep it non controversial it seems. He was bitten by the Farrakhan fury.

So looking at his premiere week guests, who is his demographic? People stuck in the 90s?

It was the network's fury! I don't think it hurt the ratings at the time, but he still lost his show.

But it's not a brand new show. Hall already has an audience, he'll be fine.

So did Rosie O'Donnell and Ricki Lake.

All late night shows are pre-taped. They are usually taped about 5 hours ealier. Except of course for Jimmy Kimmel Live.

This should be interesting His show was very entertaining in the 90s.

I still think it was messed up how he got pulled for bringing Farrakhan on the show but nothing happened to Barbara Walters when she had him on her show...political double standards.

I checked my DirecTV-DVR guide & his show is only scheduled for a "New York City" channel and I'm in South Carolina...I checked the CW channel and he's not listed at all...I know the show is syndicated so I checked CBS,NBC & ABC for showings at 2am or 3am and he's not there....Maybe he doesn't debut in my market until a couple of weeks from now...Damn you Northerners!!!..LOL...

select your state then city. It doesn't air everywhere but most places it does. In Portland it's on CW at 11 pm, that's handy.

Better than having the Kardashians, Justin Bieber or some lame reality star.

Ya got that right. I don't wanna see no damn Ga Ga or any other current pop tarts either. I'm fine with the lineup as is.

Lady GaGa would be an interesting guest.

I would want to listen to young people and hear what they've got to say.

I don't feel that only people of my own generation are the ones who are right.

Every age and zeitgeist has it's interesting icons.

I'm sure Arsenio Hall would make it cool to have Lady Gaga as a guest.

Lady Gaga is cool, she's todays Cher or Madonna. Other current pop stars such Justin Bieber has nothing interesting to say.

I'm happy with Arsenio making fun of him in his opening monologue

So who watched the show?

Yay or nay?

If Snoop was the best he could do on the very 1st show..................we may have a problem.

I totally forgot.

Was beyond boring .. go away dude u left a perfectly good show it aint never gonna happen again no matter how hard u try n u try'd way to stupidly hard lastnight.The set looked weak n boring the jokes sucked n u looked stupid tryn to make em work wth hell dude have u been on crack all this time or somethin u look weird what did lopez say ..smokin the peepa u look emancipated ay. Kinda looked like david byrne in that oversized suit witha lil head.

The show was awesome! His monologue was good, and Snoop Dog was awesome and Chris Tucker was funny. Paula Abdul's words made me tear up

His monologue started off as okay then it just got dry and boring. My eyes lit up a little when I saw Snoop...a little. Paula Abdul's bit was cute. All in all, the show wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either. Though it's not going to deter me from continuing to watch to see if it gets better. Why do I get the feeling that Chris Tucker's spot on the show was really supposed to have been Eddie Murphy's spot but he probably was unavailable. When Arsenio was doing the cabbage patch, it immediately reminded me of this:

I wonder if he will ask on Dennis Miller. That might get tense. lol
