I'm curious to know your thoughts on Jimmy Fallon. I recently watched The Tonight Show, the first time I've seen it with Jimmy Fallon, and I thought he was awful. He was one of the least funny cast members in the history of SNL IMO and I'm shocked by his post-SNL success. Am I missing something or is this guy the most successful untalented person in Hollywood? |

He's lived off being a vanilla pudding, middle of the road, non-offensive, Mr. nice guy. Basically a younger Jay Leno. I think his, "Richie Cunnigham" persona has endeared him to the sucker crowd who like his safe, trusting approach to entertaining. Most people probably want to believe that he's the guy they can count on to not ever show his wang on Facebook.

I think he's talented. Some might find him annoying - and his whole spiel (which Skinny alluded to) gets old in my view - but he's absolutely talented. |

i don't know how you measure talent. i don't think he is the funniest guy in the world. buuuttttt..... i do like him and have watched his show/clips of his show and enjoyed it. he has charisma, charm or attitude that makes him seem like a genuinely nice guy and seems like he is having fun. |

Also - there's PLENTY of people in Hollywood who are successful with WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY less talent than Fallon. I think the guy is plenty talented - but that's such a subjective word. |

I don't think hes "the most talented" guy (whatever the fuck that means in the first place). But he has taken the late night talk show and made it fun again, something that was needed after years of Leno and Letterman bleeding the format dry. |

I think he's awesome, his Justin Timberlake's episodes are hysterical. |

As much as people don't like to admit it, J.T. (Bulldog still doesn't know who the fuck that is), is a true talent on his own. When he hosts SNL (even without Fallon), he's freakin' hilarious. |

x2 on this. Even that rom com he did with Mila Kunis wasn't entirely awful, mainly because JT/Kunis made it fun despite the shitty writing/plot. Orrrrr maybe my wife is just slowly converting me to the dark side. |

Sounds to me like you're already converted. Where do you keep the closet full of dicks at home? ![]() J/k - I liked that movie too. |
