i think the biggest reason why i hate jimmy fallon is that he conducts a talk show the way i would, which of course, would be to just tell all your guests that you were a huge fan of theirs when you were 11 and just guffaw throughout the interview in lieu of asking questions

once in a while i’d do a neil young impression too

pretty mean to an unfunny guy

I mean is it really his fault? no, I'm sure he just has dysfunctional dna or something.

Personally, I enjoy Fallon's show, not so much for the interviews but for the games and other ridiculous antics and sketches. Like Head Swap. But hey, that's just me.

  And the history of rap with Timberlake. Those are always good. I didn't like his show at first, but after a while, it seems like he got used to it and is doing his own thing now. As on, I feel like he didn't know what the fuck he was doing for his show or what direction he wanted to take it in, but now he does.

Hey man. Hey.

Craig Ferguson is the best late night talk show host.

No other host did their 1000th episode entirely with puppets.

  Conan did an all claymation episode, also one in 'Skelevision' where everyone was life-size skeletons moved with wires and strings.

Now, Jimmy Fallon is pretty Suck. There's no denying that. However, that Neil Young impression was pretty awesome.

lmao awesome
Tom Brazelton

Fallon has gotten a lot better since his debut, but all of his guests either seem to be performers from SNL, people hosting SNL this week or people who have hosted SNL in the past.

All the guy ever talks about are the shared experiences he and his guest might have had while he was on SNL while looking for an opportunity to squeeze in an impression somewhere.

  Dude, I've seen your webcomic, your opinions don't count.
  - Tom Brazelton
    
    You're right. I write too many comics about my time on SNL and doing wacky impersonations.
    
    Shame on the pot for calling the kettle black!
    - davidovkosovo
      
      but the pot is stainless steel, so what if the kettle is made of some wrought iron….

        I dunno, but I'm gonna call an alchemist.

        Why not ruin the plot of Zombieland while you're there. Again.
      - Tom Brazelton
        
        Wow. I've just been served.
        
        Curious that you don't care about my comic, but follow me closely enough to know about my Zombieland gaffe.
        
        Have a nice day.

Fallon definitely needs to learn how to interview people. That Neil Young impression was well done and dead on accurate, though. And I'm a huge Young fan.
- j-mo
  
  That wasn't really Neil Young? Man, do I feel sheepish
Crumpled Stiltskin

But.. Butt.. But I don't watch TV and still miss a lot of sleep!

I should stop worring about what's in my anxiety closet.
- Simon_Roberts
  
  Yes you should. The only thing in there is skellingtons.

I think we can all agree that Fallon's interviews are pretty terrible, but Conan's interviews were pretty terrible when he started as well. And the rest of the show is actually a whole lot of fun. I was right there with you when the show was announced, but the more I watch, the more I think it actually plays to his strengths (aside from the interviews).

Carson on the other hand is actually an excellent interviewer, but kind of dull otherwise.
- Splinky
  
  When it comes to Carson, I defer Letterman's comments: Having a show at 1:30 is almost exactly the same as having no show.

I think the saddest things is that Jimmy Kimmel was not even mentioned it this joke. How sad is your life when you can not get a footnote in a Jimmy Fallon joke.
- o0o
  
  i kind of thought they were the same person until i thought about it just now…
- Alcibiades
  
  I thought Jimmy Kimmel was cancelled in 2006…
Malenko

But Kimmel did a fantastic spoof of Leno, so much respect there.

I love the newspaper called "newspaper" instead of some generic like "The Morning Gazette" reminds me of the "COLLEGE" sweatshirt in Animal House /old
Kevin

The best part about the Fallon show is his band. The Roots are pretty awesome. Kimmel can be funny, but not worth staying up for.
Koes

Fallon's interviewing style is eerily simliar to the old Chris Farley talk show sketch on SNL.

"Remember that time you were with the Beatles? That was awesome."
- Plautus
  
  A few days ago when Fallon had Ringo Starr on the show, that's exactly what the whole thing was like, capping it off with Fallon singing "A Little Help From My Friends" with Ringo's band. I was thinking: if I'm Ringo Starr, Jimmy Fallon is the person I want to do a televised interview with, it was simply worshipful.
  
  That said, I generally like the show up until he starts fawning over his guests.
bob

This is really brilliant. Salute.

Disappointing! This comic will be dated within a month, and all the humour lost. I much prefer the regular comics, which are dated before they're drawn and have no humour to begin with!

  I've never seen any of these programmes, and don't care at all about the issue, and I cracked up just from the second panel.

Oh god! Jimmy Fallon has a quirk!!
