This.

I think Leno has awesome delivery, and Conan's "dont take yourself too seriously" approach is hilarious to me. I'm always 49%/51% for Jay/Conan back and forth - I really like them both.

While i dont think Leno's show blows total donkey egg, you can tell, aside from the first 5-7 minutes of dialoguing, that show is nothing but gimmick, half-assed interviews and advertising. What a copout on NBCs part, though they've taken a hit over the past 10 years, with many of their must-see TV hits having ended.

See i was with you until you tried to knock Lopez - while i don't think he's here for the long haul, I think he delivers in "bringing the party to late night." I like how he seems to personally know many of the guests, (ie working with them in the past) so it seems very familiar.

But since we're inciting a Late Night War 2KX, I agree we get rid of Jimmy (he does rock out in the Real Housewives parody, but otherwise... STAB STAB STAB), get rid of Carson (i like him as a person but he really doesnt need a show, esp on NBC. give him another network), hell, let's get rid of Jimmy Kimmel while we're at it.

but yes, im rocking out with #teamconan. If Fallon gets the boot, maybe Conan can hook the Roots up? They make up for more than half of my tolerance for Fallon being on-air.

I never watch either of them, and rarely watch Letterman. Shoot, I'd ususally choose a rerun of Law and Order: SVU over any of them any night -- the monologue/talk show format just isn't my thing.

This.

Regardless, it's NBC that really loses, and probably deserves to lose. They're not looking good at all.

I'm not a Conan fan. He tries to make every interview all about him, which kinda defeats the purpose of the interview. I'd rather watch Jay than Conan, but both pale in comparison to Dave.

I must admit that I thought Conan's letter was nice and extremely well-put.

Still, it's a non-issue for me since, when I watch late night TV, I watch Letterman.

I actually LOVE Headlines and it is one of the few reasons why I'll occasionally tune into Leno. But that stupid racecar challenge? Total success for advertising but huge fail on entertainment value.

Yes, he is an asshole, but he admits to it. I think he's hilarious, especially when he has the kids with their experiments on his show. As far as I know, he's the only one who does that.

The only thing funny about Conan is his hair.

Whatever happened to Arsenio Hall? Why did his show get cancelled?

Not gonna lie - I would totally watch it. Law and Order is my first, second, and third favorite show.

It was canceled like 15 years ago.

Law & Order: Trial By Jury never had a fair chance. :(

And I reallllly enjoyed Law & Order: Crime and Punishment (the reality show).

I wasn't sure when it was cancelled, but why did it get cancelled?

This has nothing to do with who is funny or not, it has to do with following through on promises. Conan stayed w/ the Late Show for 5 years more than he needed to, on the promise that he would get the Tonight Show (which at 12:05 is no longer the Tonight Show). Conan got nowhere NEAR the welcome that Jay got when he took over, and Jay was dying in the ratings for the first year and a half he was on.

"Doesn't it feel great to be vindicated?" - Whoopi Goldberg to David Letterman last night. He has to be the happiest he's ever been in his life right now.

I semi-agree, but to me it's not that Lopez is the funny one when he talks to the guests. It's the guests themselves that are funny. For example, when he had Sandra Bullock on. The whole bit about her dressing up as a gang member didn't have ANYTHING to do with Lopez' comedy, it was fully Bullock. That was hilarious.

Lopez' monologue (or whatever you wanna call it) at the beginning of the show are usually NEVER funny, and now he's adopted a freaking stupid ass laughing gesture. (where he crouches down, and covers his mouth with his hand with a limp wrist). He's trying waaaaay to hard to be funny, and be "that guy."

I <3 Lopez, but his show is just really bad.

^^^^^^^ Now this shit was funny!!! (although chola girl, not so much)

Am I the only one who actually likes Jimmy??

I like Jimmy, but he's too damn silly for me to be able to watch him regularly.

this is the post of the thread

I liked Jimmy on SNL. Not so much on late night.

Also, they tried to stick a late night TV show in prime time. WTF. At 9pm I want to watch some straight up Law and Order. Jay Leno's ugly mug on my TV instead of Vincent D'Onofrio makes me homicidal.
