To think anyone believes Jimmy Fallon is funnier than Conan or Jimmy Kimmel makes me fear for the future of comedy.
Conan is a writer. Fallon has writers (Tina Fey wrote most of the material on SNL during their time there). Is there really a question of who the funnier one is?
Any amount of success Fallon has makes me weep.
TV is horrible, and TV deserves Leno and Fallon.
I honestly had no idea Jay Leno was still on TV, I triple checked the date of this thread
So Leno will be out in a year. Spring of 2014 is when he's gone, to be replaced by Fallon (confirmed)
I'm fine with Fallon getting The Tonight Show, but if the rumors are true about Late Night going to Seth Meyers...DO NOT WANT.
I'm not a Fallon fan but my wife showed me this and dammit its stuck in my head now ><
Honestly, I will be more surprised if NBC doesn't have buyer's remorse in six months/one year and try to renege on Fallon, a-la Letterman/O'Brien.
The precedent is there, after all.
Here's hoping this new gig bars Fallon from anymore commercials. I can't stand that "50% more taters, that's where tots come from" line. Cringe worthy, every time.
The only part of this that matters to me is whats going to happen to the Roots.
Fuck. Not a fan of Meyers at all. Oh well, Craig Ferguson is still awesome at 12:30.
Jimmy Fallon and NBC extend Tonight Show contract for another 6 years
