Except for this week, jnb. :) It's 12:00am until the 24th.
I won't be watching live because I refuse to give NBC ratings because of how they screwed over Conan. Ill probably download it, I only like Fallons singing skits, other then that meh. I'm really curious to see how the ratings are.
Conan was a class act today tweeting this...
" As the only man alive who’s hosted The Tonight Show & Late Night, I want to congratulate jimmyfallon & sethmeyers. They’ll both do great!"

That sounds like a helluva lotta effort to put in so that you can "not" watch a show you aren't interested in.
Takes less then a few mins to download the show, I am curious about the first episode. I don't hate Fallon or anything, just refuse to support NBC.
I still work for Conan and he has gotten over it and has moved on and seems very happy with the show he has now. Yes, NBC paniced and acted quite stupidly, but as a network who was watching their prime time ratings plummet like a lead ballon, one can see a reason for their knee jerk reaction. Conan's move to cable has given him a little more wiggle room with standard and practices which fits his humor more.
Fallon I feel is a perfect successor to Carson's Tonight Show. Never at all cared for Leno, he always struck me as a greasy MFer.
just refuse to support NBC.
Do you own a Nielsen box? If not, no one will know you watched it but you.

I'm going to miss the Real Housewives...
Ah! I hadn't realized it was midnight this week. Goes to show what you know when you don't watch an ounce of Olympic coverage on NBC.

I love Fallon. But I love Conan, too. Any true Conan fan should know by now that he has moved beyond it. Talk about sour grapes. NBC is a for-profit corporation and have to watch their bottom line. The bottom line is Conan was the wrong successor..... Always was. And I again say that as a huge Conan fan.

u2 were pretty good, something I no longer thought was possible. And good old Will Smith makes sure we know he is NOT down with any of that gay twerking stuff.
This premiere episode has been great! Those celebrity cameos who owed Jimmy money was hilarious! Gaga, Lindsay, Joan, SJP, Deniro, etc!!
That was a great show. Clearly, the best man for the job. And, wow, looks like Joan Rivers is finally off the Tonight Show blacklist.
Joan Rivers for the win.
As someone said--The best revenge against your detractors is to out live them..
That was my first thought when I saw Joan come out. Then I also thought it was incredibly gracious of Jimmy (or Lorne or whoever first thought to invite her) to mend that fence, even if it only was a gesture, because those people who know the history would appreciate it.

Great episode. Fallon is a classy guy with genuine heart and a passion for what he does. He's also not afraid to take risks and make a fool of himself in the process. The perfect successor for The Tonight Show.

Gaga's voice sounded for-gee-pus on the second episode. And she looked like a space age Streisand.
My "selfie" arm is on tonight! I think!

The mannequin arm skits are some of my favorites, SNAFU. Glad to know we might see some of your work on there tonight.
