Re: Jimmy Fallon formally named next "Late Night" host
I like Jimmy Fallon and all but I don't know if he'd be that good as a late night host. We'll see though next year, although there's a mighty good chance I won't be watching because I don't watch late night shows like that.

Re: Jimmy Fallon formally named next "Late Night" host
I think I've been living under a rock. I had no clue that O'Brien was taking over the Tonight Show.
IMO Jimmy Fallon is overrated. His fake laugh doesn't seem genuine, his hair annoys me, and he was just lucky to have musical talent and have taken over Adam Sandler's role on SNL. |

I hate Jimmy Falon -- he's the only one that laughs at his jokes.

Re: Jimmy Fallon formally named next "Late Night" host
Jimmy Fallon has gotta be one of the weirdest changes to TV since Drew Carey took over for Bob Barker.
Don't get me wrong, I like Drew but Plinko's just not the same without Bob.. Or that yodeling dude either. That game is the shit.

Re: Jimmy Fallon formally named next "Late Night" host
I think of Jimmy Fallon and all I can think of is Family Guy. That episode where Meg loses her virginity to him. But then she realizes she's on camera and part of a skit when Fallon turns to the camera and says "Live from New York..."
Then Meg goes crying to her parents, so Peter finds Fallon and starts pounding him and says something like ""Hey Fallon, say godnight ya' bum. This is for laughing and ruining every sketch you've ever been in." Then he turns to Meg and says "Now where's the bastard who broke your heart?"

Re: Jimmy Fallon formally named next "Late Night" host
I would have given it to Andy Richter. Or Sarah Silverman. Now that would be a hootenanny. Battling late night boyfriend/girlfriend.
The real kick in the nuts will be when the talentless, preening mug of John Stewart is named to replace Letterman.

I love Richter, but I think he's more of the sidekick type.

What's the name of that stupid show on Comedy Central starring her? I watched that one day and I thought that was extremely unfunny, it belongs right up there with that other stupid show Kenny vs. Spenny.

Re: Jimmy Fallon formally named next "Late Night" host
I'm a fan of comedy shows, in fact you could say I'm a fan of comedy that everyone else considers crude and lame, such as movies that involve Jay and Silent Bob, but that show takes stupidity to an entire other level.

Jersey Girl sucked though. As soon as they started catering to Bennifer, I was over it.
