56112735If you were to ask me to name the best late night show of the 00s, I would say The Magic Hour without hesitation. But it turns out that was on in the 90s, so I would go with my second choice, The Chevy Chase Show. 90s again, believe it or not. Tom Snyder? 90s. Byron Allen? 90s. Night Cap with Corbin Bernsen? Nonexistent.

It would seem I haven't been paying very close attention to the currently waning decade. Luckily, The Onion's AV Club has, and they've just unveiled their list of the best late night shows. As you may have gathered from the big block letters above the first paragraph, sharing the top spot are The Daily Show and Colbert Report.

Throughout, The Daily Show’s fattest target has been the 24-hour cable-news channels, which fill the air with inanity when nothing’s happening, and fail to do any real reporting when it matters.

Similarly, The Colbert Report has been so on-point with its spoof of fact-averse cable-TV pundits that emerging media stars like Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin have often seemed like they’ve been taking notes.

Meanwhile, Chappelle's Show took the #2 spot. You can see the full list here.

The Daily Show and Colbert Report air Monday through Thursday starting at 11pm / 10c.
