The other day, I posted a couple Letterman Top Ten Lists. If that got your interest wound up but unsatisfied, well, here's where to go to get more. This page has all the early, pre-CBS top ten lists, and lists from CBS up to 2001. Note that the earlier lists are the intellectual property of NBC or its parent corporation, and used without permission. For your more recent lists, you can go to the Top Ten archive on Letterman's CBS page, which has the most recent ones back to August of 93. So there's a little overlap there. The search function on the CBS page works pretty well, but for the older ones, use google.

For your enjoyment, a couple random top ten lists:
