I'll be tuned in. I'm not a big negative nelly like most people here who think he'll be awful. I just don't think he'll be very good 🙂 - Only one way to find out. I'm curious to see if he has good writers, good comedy sketches, and if he's a decent interviewer (decent would probably be as high as he could go as far as interviewing, but no one expects him to become james lipton at 12:30 at night.) - Will be difficult to follow Conan and his crew.

Great Writers/Comedy Sketches are key.

Meanwhile, Conan won't be back on for about a month.

Me either. Jimmy Fallon trying to fill Conan's shoes? That's both literally and figuratively impossible. I really wish someone could explain what's funny about Jimmy Fallon. He just always seems kinda.. douchey..?

Because he's not. I think the show is going to suck. Oh well, there's always Leno...

Leno?


"Hey guys, did ya hear about this thing? Turns out it was because of this!"

<forced laughter, mostly by Kevin>

"You see, that joke was funny because you don't typically expect those two things to be related. Hence, the humor!"

<bobble head shake>

"Wait, there's 1 guy watching with an IQ of 67 who still doesn't get it? Here let me stop the entire show and draw you a diagram; it's vastly important to me that there's absolutely zero chance than any joke go over the head of anyone over the age of 11!"


 
I wonder if his monologue will just be 15 minutes of him laughing through the jokes someone else wrote for him to read.

Enjoy Jimmy Fallon.
 
I'm giving Fallon a shot, I watched all his webisodes yesterday. I think he just needs time to mature a little bit and the show might turn out all right.
 
LOL wife just called from NYC. They just got tickets to the taping.

How can you people NOT like Conan.... yet you think Fallon is "Worth a shot"?

Yeah, he'll provide his own laughtrack because he'll just keep laughing at his own jokes.

That vs Conan:

Head in camera
Move head out of camera
move it back in
do the walking down the stares
do the elevator
zZzZz

Can't be hard to replace Conan, but shit, Fallon?
