Fallon doesn't count because tactical nukes will be obliterating his show by the end of July (if we're lucky) (sorry The Roots, RIP)

fallon's sidekick is the actual worst though

Daly doesn't even have a typical late night set-up anymore. He's out and about with a camera man shooting segments on location. For regular interviews, he has a stage, but there's no desk anymore and, more importantly, no lame Joe Firstman-led studio band.

lol you watch Carson Daly

it's a weird show - it's not even mildly entertaining but i don't think anyone who is working for the show even knows what the point of the program is

let free dom ring (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:20 (fifteen years ago) link

lol Adult Swim isn't always a reliable alternative at that hour, and I've usually already watched Olbermann from the night before.

But Carson's really not that bad, honestly. He's not trying to be a "late night host" anymore with a monologue and shit. He's going out talking to musicians and street artists and authors and it's decent tv for that hour.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:21 (fifteen years ago) link

the week that fallon premiered, daly was profiling a different musician each day and like showing live footage, and then the next week he was interviewing joey fatone in studio and now he's just like filming random shit around california

Yeah, I kind of love that NBC gives him $20 a week to do whatever he wants.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:24 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah carson dalys show is secretly kind of awesome sort of because no one has ever watched it

like seriously???

Jokes about BILL CLINTON AND MONICA LEWINSKY? O.J. SIMPSON JOKES? Unbelievable. This guy is on TV? This guy gets to keep being on TV?

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:35 (fifteen years ago) link

What possible Katrina joke could you make now that wouldn't be way past its sell date other than the awesome one they did on "30 Rock"?

68 children. OK, that's cute. Except what is the point? I mean, every company over time will have employees that have kids. Traditionally, these kids are honored by being invited to the company's family picnic. There's just something megalomaniacal about somehow TAKING CREDIT for other people's children. Jay Leno is not responsible for these babies.

HOW DO YOU KNOW?

Leno also fit in a last shot at O.J. Simpson, another monologue favorite. In cleaning out his office today, the comedian said, "I found O.J.'s knife. I had it the whole time."

oooooh good one, Jay

also conan's monologue was weirdly bad last night - like a winehouse joke and a kirsty ally joke - i guess hollywood needs a new famous drunk crackhead and a new fat person

Maybe Mavis doesn't want kids and encourages Jay to sow his seed elsewhere!

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:38 (fifteen years ago) link

when they say that leno connects with people in the middle of the country they mean he connects with olds whose grasp of current events grows increasingly tenuous with each passing year.

yeah, it's not like conan's monologue has been chronically bad for years or anything

kirstie ally jokes are pretty lame but winehouse is fine--OJ and Katrina jokes are unacceptable

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:39 (fifteen years ago) link

It was. I really think Jay's probably a super nice guy. I just think his comedy is DOA.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:40 (fifteen years ago) link

also he's a hard worker

let free dom ring (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:41 (fifteen years ago) link

all I'm saying is someone ought to measure the chins on those babies, just to be sure

so how long until Conan loses the Tonight Show-type gags and starts introducing the stupid characters again?

He's a nice guy right now but he was one of those guys who walked on everybody to get where they are and now is shocked to find a lot of people remember what he used to be like. For instance, remember the Bill Hicks joke?

The AM talk station I listen to in the mornings for traffic and weather on the 9's used to play this little segment at 7:45 called "Last Night on Leno", a sort of greatest-hits version of Leno's monologue from the night before. It was Leno being Leno, and just some cheese I had to sit through while waiting for the light to turn green.

But this morning, they played "Last Night on Conan", and let me tell you something: That guy's monologues kind of suck on TV, but they're downright pathetic when you're listening to only the audio.

"In other obvious music news, Amy Winehouse likes to take a drink."

The Twitter Tracker bit was a modified carry-over from Late Night. And was still just as funny.

I hope they bring back Evil Puppy.
