Pop Critics: Jimmy Fallon taking Conan’s spot in 2009

  • Cap'n Schwartz · 1 year ago
    He's sought after soley because he or his show or people staying watching nbc latenight, or they alweays have, but Leno is always #1, so everyone would want that. ABC is even talking of displacing Jimmy Kimmel to get Leno... soley because they are chasing the #1 rating. Conan will get the #1 rating and he'll keep it, regarless if Leno goes against him or not, its peoples habit to watch that as late night (this was a report on NPR at one time, why does Leno beat Letterman all the time).
    Fallon will be great in Conans slot and a great replacement. He's funny funny....

    I hardly ever watched Conan, but I think he's funny. Hopefully I'll catch more of him when Leno's gone (which can't be soon enough).

    As for Fallon, I can take him or leave him, most likely leave him at his new late hour. I suspect most will do the same and he'll be gone inside a year. You heard it here first.

    I rarely catch Conan, but when I do, it is usually pretty good. Will be nice to see him take Leno's spot.

    As for Fallon, never really been much of a fan..

    I'm not a Leno or Fallon fan.

    I like Letterman the best and then Conan.

    Love Letterman as well, he's definitely the best in my eyes.
