Comment on How come late night hosts always seem to think every guest did good shit whether a movie or book or whatever? Why not just be honest and say I thought this sucked. And get in a real discussion.?

Presumably if they wanted your admiration, they wouldn’t be a fucking talk show host, which is by definition and by design a shill for corporate products and messages. There was that one time that one guy said something cool and the other time that other guy said that thing to that famous person, but come on; that’s not their job. Earning your admiration is not the job. A talk show is not the personal platform of the host, any more than a role in a movie is the personal platform of the actor.
