The Tonight Show

[Road Guy]

I DVR'd the new tonight show, watched it, wasnt terrible but it damn sure wasnt Leno or Carson..

Seems like the new show is geared towards the Adult Attention Disorder Crowd..

Fixt. He was that way with SNL

I'm not sure he'll catch on with the Tonight Show crowd.

I think he's funny, but I've always thought he had a little bit of a "deer in the spotlight" look about him.... maybe he is just always high, who knows.

We really liked Conan when he was on after Leno left the first time.. but we havent been able to get into him as much on TBS..

I just see Jimmy Fallon being more of a Jon Stewart type. Carson had a saying that you could make political jokes without getting political, I thought Leno did that very well..maybe NBC is smarter than that....

I also have watched the first 2 shows. There's some funny stuff but there's also some of that lingering "not funny" SNL stuff. He can let that go anytime now. His guests have been decent and somewhat funny though IMO.

i caught a little bit last night he overuses the word great or awesome...I can't remember which it was but it seemed like everything was Great/awesome

I can't say that I've every watched The Tonight Show period, so I'm definitely not going to start now. Of course, I'm always in bed by 10, so that's one of the major reasons.

Unless I'm catching the end of something on Netflix or a movie, I rarely have the TV on after 10, and are usually in bed before 10:30.

The Tonight Show? What's that? I thought TV just went off the air at 10:30.

Jimmy Fallon is about as funny as a wet paper towel. He would have just been a bad actor, except he couldn't hold a straight face in any of his SNL skits.

 

[Capt Worley PE]

I think its funny when they occasionally lose it on SNL, but Fallon did it every....freakin...time he was on. It was annoying and unprofessional.

It did, however, add to the epic-ness of the cowbell skit with Christoper Walken

 

[Capt Worley PE]

^True dat.

 

[roadwreck]

I've seen Fallon do this on his show before, but this is the best version I've ever seen them do.
