He's reminiscing by bringing back friends as guest who were had more widespread popularity during his first run, yet still have a following, which is fine as Letterman and Leno have on plenty of guests who aren't on the cover of Tiger Beat. Assuming his show gets more popular, the guests will come. The skits are a bit corny and some plain unfunny, but hopefully they'll either get funnier or he'll do away with them or maybe he'll be like Chelsea handler and not care what anyone thinks and keep doing them anyway.

I saw an interview with Arsenio where he mentioned that he'll have to work to get big-name guests back on his show. He joked that it's like that Drake song, started from the bottom..............now I'm back on the bottom.

I thought he did well by having Snoop Dogg/Lion as his first guest on Monday.

I lost all respect for him when he went to court to try and get his child support reduced, claiming that what he was paying the mother of his only child should be based on his earnings that year (2004 when the son was already five), irrespective of his amassed wealth. He claims to be worth $3 million when FOX says it paid him upwards of $10 million A YEAR when his former talk show was popular. If he threw away all that cash, it doesn't say much for his sanity.

Default Arsenio: 3rd night in a row.....race related monologue

I was looking forward to the return of Arsenio's return but his monologue has been weak. I can't stand when people fall into stereotypical jokes.

For the 3rd night in a row, he's had corny race related jokes. If you're going to do that, at least tell funny jokes. All of the jokes have been not only corny but their always speaking in terms of the worst blacks.

George Lopez is on the show tonight, I'll bet he goes down the Hispanic/black joke path.

Nothing wrong with that style but man do it sparingly and do it well. Dave Chappelle is the best at that.


Come on Arsenio, I'm pulling for you. So far the guests have been all good.....
