Do any of you watch late night television?
I'm a fan of Conan. Thinking about how his transition to the Tonight Show will pan out.
Just wondering what you all thought of the coming shift in late night television.

I've always loved Conan.
The Walker Texas Ranger lever was awesome.

Conan's show sucks. Great writer though. I can't see how anyone older than 22 can dig him. Of course, my Grandpa, who loved Carson, couldn't stand Letterman or Leno based on the same argument.

Just a different time slot and studio for Conan he still has to followup Leno, it's retarded. What is Leno's show going to be called does anybody know? Since it's now Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien.

Conan is great, but NBC is retarded. They basically forced Leno out and then had to save face when they realized ABC would offer him a show. I mean I'd rather watch Leno at 10 then episodes of CSI: Fiji or something, but who the fuck wants to watch Jimmy Fallon?

Craig Ferguson is great too. And now that you've brought it up I realize I can just watch him when Fallon comes on. I think Conan's humor appeals to people that do drugs where as Ferguson is just on drugs.

Jimmy Fallon takes over "Late Night" in March.
Conan won't start the "Tonight Show" all the way 'til July.

I used to be a huge Conan fan. He was just hilarious his first 4 or 5 seasons. He still makes me laugh, but he doesn't seem to put in the same effort now that he has tenure.
Last night's show was great. Who else could get Martha Stewart to drink from a 40 on the air?

Leno will provide the perfect lead on for Conan, just as he always has.
the only problem i see is booking wars because both shows are in LA
