    Thoughts?

    I haven't enjoyed Conan as much since he switched to The Tonight Show, but am very interested to see how this situation works itself out. NBC gone and dun' mess'd up!

    I enjoyed Conan more on the late show as well. I had no idea this was happening as i haven't had cable in quite awhile but I thought that statement was awesome and I'm also interested to see howt his plays out.

    Conan crushes Leno. I can't believe they still want to hold on to that guy. He's terrible.

    Think he'll take his NBC money and run or get the NBC money plus Fox's $10 mill?

    The ratings say the exact opposite.

    I like Leno, but like Conan more. And I think that Letterman blows. ANd all of those other jokers (jimmy fallon, carson daily, etc) is no good either.

    Fact is this - Lenos ratings were higher than Lettermans.
    Now Conans ratings are down (if I remember correctly) 30% from what Leno was doing.
    America loves Leno, NBC knows it, they want to make money.

    Older people love Leno so much. They don't get Conan's humor at all. It's sad.

    To me, Leno isn't funny not even one bit. I think the way he delivers jokes ruins them. If conan told the same jokes in his own style, I'd die laughing.

    Where is the love for Craig Ferguson?

    Or George Jopez?

    well, if you're asking seriously and not rhetorically, the love for lopez is right here, chulo.

    Lopez is easily the most unfunny comedian of all time. besides carlos mencia.

    Damn that's a good idea, maybe Carlos Mencia will take over Late Night. I need more "beaner" jokes in my life.

    I have to agree that Lopez is absolutely terrible imo.

    Conan > Ferguson > Leno > Letterman imo

    I think what sucks for Conan is that it is hard to compare someone like Leno's ending ratings on the Tonight Show to Conan's in the first 7 months. When Leno first took over, his ratings were down and he was losing to the new competition of Letterman. Over time he picked up more of his own audience beyond some of the default audience that came along with the Tonight Show. When it comes to shows like this, people are hesitant when it comes to change. Even look at Conan's ratings over the years from the time he started to the end of Late Night.

    I think Conan has done absolutely fine given we are only 7 months in. Plus, think of this, Leno wasn't having to compete with Carson going right before him. Sure, Leno isnt on at the same time as Conan, but don't you think some Leno fans would still tune in to Conan if Leno didn't have a show? Those who liked Leno already (generally a slightly older audience) might simply tune in for a similar kind of show to see Leno now anyways and not stay up later for Conan.

    His "comedy" show is a joke. Not the good kind.
    I can't stand him.
    Ned Mencia is everything that is wrong with comedy. I'd choose Lopez over him anytime.

    Jimmy Kimmel was not shy about his feelings at all on Leno's show last night.

    Absolutely hilarious.

    Kimmel has definitely grown on me over time. Ferguson too. Hell, Fallon is awkward, but he has his moments that make me smile. I'll watch just about any late night program if you can't tell.

    Ok, if he'd made like 2 less jokes Kimel would have been funny. There was a little bit of overkill there. But still funny.

    I think that was the point. He wasn't doing it to be funny. He was trying to make a statement and let Leno know how shitty this all was.

    Question - why is Leno the bad guy exactly? Did he ask for the show back? Or was it offered to him and he said yes? There is a difference. Hating on Leno when possibly its not his decision

    Laura - how are you so certain?
    Josh - Yes, theyve never done any acting. EVER.

    have you seen leno try to act? It's horrible. on top of that why would they write something into the show that straight out make leno look like an asshole. Not funny haha you're a jerk like you and I do but straight up look like an asshole. it makes more sense that they didn't know that was going to happen to me.

    • CommentAuthorJosh Topic

    because by sitting through it he can "take it in good fun" but if he were to cut him off a fellow NBC host that is "jabbing him" than he'd look like more of an ass.
