Late Night with Jimmy Fallon

First show guests the like of über-stars DeNiro, Timberlake and Morrison aside, the all new Late Night is funny, capable and looks poised to 'bring it' every night. Fallon is likable, quick witted and up to the task, displaying the sensibilities and timing of a seasoned vet (he handled snoozer interviewee DeNiro perfectly). Both interviews were entertaining and without the awkward moments we all suffered through with a young Conan in the early 90's. As for content, with the possible exception of "Lick it for 10," the sketches and bits were hilarious. The writing is spot on with the established persona we recognize from Fallon's days on SNL. On their inaugural run, the new team at studio 6B has successfully put together a show all their own which doesn't come off as forced and won't alienate the audience Conan has built in this time slot.

Worry not, Late Night fan. 12:37AM is going to be OK.

Jimmy has a good sense of humor which is emerging more effectively over time. This is especially evident in the sketches/videos they produce on the show and his acting in them. He has a good sense of cultural parody which you can't say for SNL recently. He has parodied Twilight, Real Housewives, and The Hills, and it is funny. He is not only a talented actor and a happy guy; he also seems to have a bit of musical talent. I also loved his grad students on Spring Break sketch and many other bits that they do, even though I detest the Lick it for Ten and Moustaches Wrestling type stuff. And of course, the Roots are a very cool and creative band even if this is mentioned every five minutes on the show. Their Friday night improvising thing really impresses me and they often have guests play with them.

Also, Jimmy has rapport with most of his guests because he is a nice guy. He might be nervous and diffident but that can be charming. He seems to be buddies with everyone including the Roots and Higgins, etc., which gives the show a friendly feeling and seems to help everyone collaborate. Shows where clever people get along with each other seem to produce good stuff and I expect this show will improve even more. People should give him a break! He is not Conan but he is nice, straightforward, and yes, I will say it, funny.

Late Night with Jimmy Fallon is the single worst late night TV show I have ever had the displeasure to watch.

He has had enough time now to settle in to the job but he has not gotten one bit better! When will NBC admit that this show is a huge fail and just let it die already? Jimmy Fallon should not be on TV.

The monologues and his interviews are simply painful to watch and the jokes and skits he does are all just terrible. What are these people even attempting to do is beyond me and every time I try to watch this show I just end up staring at the screen wide-eyed wondering to myself "how does something this bad actually get put on TV?"

Jimmy Fallon should do everyone a favour, including himself, and get this show off TV for good. It's for his good too because in the long run he'll be remembered as the guy who had the late night talk show that was even worse than Chevy Chase's show. This show and Jimmy Fallon are just terrible.

He was also the worst Emmy host I have ever seen.

I will say right off the bat, this is not as good as it was with Conan, but I do not think Fallon is to blame. The problem with this show is simple, bad writing. When watching this show, I wonder if any of the writing staff stayed on from Conan, especially the later episodes; there was still a lot of unfunny jokes when O'Brien was the host. The difference? Conan can roll with the punches and has a lightning fast sense of humour. I can think of many jokes saved by said humour. As such, one should note that Fallon is a baby, while Conan has been doing this for a very long time. Don't put the blame on Jimmy Fallon, give him some time to hone his skills and let's hope the jokes improve as well. Knock wood.

I admit some of the comedy on this show is stale and not funny, though lets not forget that Conan O'Brien wasn't even considered funny until his 4th year! Jimmy is only on his second for crying out loud. And His monologue may be short, but I still laugh out loud at many jokes he says throughout. His skits are priceless, have me laughing out loud every time. Particularly the "Lost", "Glee" and "Twilight" parody. Though there are some things he needs to work on: Stop laughing at his own jokes. Get some fresh new writers. Get more interaction between The Roots and Jimmy. Get a longer monologue

Other than that Late Night With Jimmy Fallon proudly continues the tradition of the Late Night franchise.
