    Jimmy Fallon?!!! Are you serious?!!! That in and of itself is joke! Not only did he single-handedly ruin every potentially great sketch he was in on SNL, but every movie movie he has been in has been so bad that it makes me want to punch myself repeatedly in the crotch until I pass out! That’s how bad he is! The only way they could have made a poorer decision on who to take over for Conan would have been to have Speed Racer take over!! COME ON!!!!!

    Fallon was funny, but with the other members of SNL. (He and Tina Fey are my favorite Update team ever). There is no way he can carry a show by himself.
    I am very sad that Conan will leave Late Night. Because he is on the earlier time slot, he probably will have to tone down his comedy.

    I think the biggest problem NBC has is Carson Daley..That show makes me hate that im an insomniac. He’s aged so much sense MTV its crazy. As for Fallon I wish him the best but I do think he’s gonna have a hard time holding a show by himself. I hope Conan doesn’t change I like him just the way he is!

  • Jorge

    Jimmy Fallon not having any memorable characters on SNL? Not true. One of the most memorable characteristics of Jimmy is that he was funny in everything he did, in or out of character, just like Sandler. He is the perfect choice for Conan’s replacement.

    Jimmy was on Conan last night and besides laughing too hard at his own jokes and trying too hard for Conan to like him he also did his cutting edge impression of Regis! This guy can’t miss!

  • Paul

    Jimmy Fallon makes Carson Daley look absolutely brilliant.

  • Pamela

    For crying out loud, Conan has been on the bottom rung for a long time. He definitely isn’t funny, nor is he cute for handsome in anyway. His humor is so stupid that and eight year old might appreciate him. Also he has had the same bits on his show since he started, and I couldn’t hack it then.

    PROOF OF AMERICAN IDOL FRAUD!!!!
    This is the second year in a row that American Idol has had a
    songwriting contest. Since the contest ended last year I’ve
    researched the contestants from last year and this year….FYI there
    were over 25,000 entries last year at $10.00 for each song. 20 songs
    were then chosen out of the 25,000 for an online vote. The winner’s
    song is then performed on the American Idol Finale. The problem I
    have is that one of THIS years Top 20 Finalist is a Co-writer of LAST
    years Top 20 Winner.
    Somebody from American Idol has some explaining to do.
    THERE IS A LOT, LOT, LOT MORE!!!!!
    FOR ALL THE FACTS PLEASE VISIT….

    Conan is ridiculous, not funny, too chaotic for late late night. Letterman will now rule that time slot. Fallon – we’ll see.

  • E man

    CONANS THE MAN!!!there is no way Jimmy fallon will come close to filling his seat.

  • DCsilb

    I will never watch late night again.

  • jay

    jimmy fallon blows hard. he hasnt done anything remotely funny in his whole career, not to mention he’s disappeared from the map over the last few years (thank god). i cant wait to see fallon laugh at his own jokes (by own, i mean jokes that someone else wrote) and bore the crowd to death. i think conan is alright, a bit of an old hat. all true late night talk show junkies know letterman will always reign supreme (although daily show and especially colbert report are far more entertaining)

  • john

    theres no way late night w/jimmy fallon lasts 6 months. if i was a bookie i’d set the over/under at 3 months. the scottish dude isnt funny and he’s taken alot of conans viewers. conan is still pretty funny.
