The Tonight Show w/ Conan O' Brien

Gotta say that I have really grown to enjoy Jimmy Fallon.

I know this is the Conan thread but people were discussing Fallon's show too.

At first I thought it was a huge trainwreck and felt bad for him. I thought it was gonna bomb or something

Over the past couple weeks though I've been enjoying the show a ton. It's not Conan, but I still have a blast watching it. One hour of late night tv isn't enough, so having this show be entertaining is awesome.

I really like how the humor/writing is wise enough not to try too hard. It has its own style.
I think the concept of having him play games with his guests is incredible. Like playing air hockey with a celebrity is so simple it's genius.
He's pretty good with his guests, and makes great conversation.
It's just amazing to see him and Jim from The Office play video games, or him play beirut (beer pong) with one of the Golden Girls. That shit is surreal.

I think its amazing that he's doing the whole Saved by the Bell thing. His biggest strength is that he's dialed into the current mid 20's generation.
