You have to go to the syndicated late night talkers to see any consistent non-suit wearing, and it's still rare. I know Jon Stewart didn't wear a suit for his MTV show, but I can't remember if he did when he went syndicated (sort of taking over Arsenio's spot/coverage). I don't think he did, but it's been a while.
>From memory (so not exhaustive): Talkshow with Spike - suit Vibe - suit for both hosts Chevy - suit Pat Sajak - suit The Magic Hour - suit Wanda Sykes - mixes it up Chelsea - mixes it up While I think Wanda and Chelsea are dressing more casual than Joan did, I don't know if it's really causal, or if female talk show wardrobes constitute the apples to male wardrobe oranges. Daytime seems more casual, with the exception of Regis and Kelly Lee.

In the very early days of Late Night, there was about a week where Dave wore a sweater and no tie. I seem to remember Conan doing something similar once a week for a little while. Apparently, none of these guys really wants to wear a tie, but the audience expects it. -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
