He's... okay... I guess? I haven't really seen him in years. He still on SNL?
I'll miss Conan though. Funny dude.

Well Conan is taking over for Leno, and leno is getting a different show that comes on an hour earlier. So really we aren't losing anyone.

You know who we could stand to lose, that is to say what show needs a new host, Last Call with Carson Daily.

I think Conan and Craig Ferguson are the kings of late night

I don't think Craig's funny at all. Any writing I've seen is, well, stupid, because I can't think of something better to call it. Conan is still pretty funny, but it can be hit or miss for me. I do want to check him out once he makes the move though.
Jimmy Fallon can shove his head up his own ass and implode for all I care. I'll check out his show when I can, but only so I can tear it apart with my SYSTEM OF MIGHTY ORGANS! BEHOLD!

God, I wholeheartedly agree. I don't understand why everyone's all up on Craig Ferguson's dick. I can't watch him for more than 5 minutes. This is not only because he's not funny at all, but his accent drives me fucking mad also.

I absolutely don't eat barbecue!
While I may say that a lot, I don't like Fallon at all. I absolutely don't like Jimmy Fallon!

Jimmy Fallon? More like Jimmy Failin'. I've always hated him. I like Craig Ferguson though.

Jimmy Fallon sucks. There had been talk for awhile that Robert Smigel, creator of TV Funhouse and voice of Triumph the Comic Insult Dog, would get Conan's spot. Guess he must not be photogenic enough. I would love a late night show, but I don't think I could handle it. Sooner or later, I'd start being an asshole to my guests. Something like this:
Syd: Sarah Michelle Gellar, great to have you on the show.
SMG: Thanks Syd, great to be here.
Syd: Now, you're currently starring in Scooby 3: Monsters In Monster Land, in theatres everywhere.
SMG: That's correct.
Syd: Did you even read the script for this? Are you even trying anymore?
(awkward silence)
Syd: GET OFF MY SHOW, YOU WHORE!

With the years of quality work he's given to NBC, Smigel certainly would deserve a show.
Love that fake interview there Syd, that's how I really want those interviews to go. Of course, they never do, so I just switch the channel after the comedy bits unless someone I like is going to be on.

I also never found Jimmy Fallon to be funny or entertaining. What a fucking toolbag he is.

To be fair, the guests who hate whatever they're in barely actually talk about it in those interviews. They just BS some funny anecdote, wait out the 8 minutes of screentime, and get out.

Jimmy Fallon's okay, but I can't see him having a talk show. While I'm happy that I'll be able to see COnan earlier, I'm worried that he's going to tone down his show for the new timeslot.
