Conan is definately better than Leno, he is genuinly funny. Leno tries too hard, and he stares at his female guests breasts :p

I love the Daily Show w/ Jon Stewart

I like Conan 100x more than Leno.

The chemistry between Weinberg and Conan is electric.

What are your favorite late night shows?
Conan is def the man. I cant wait til Lenos contract is up and Conan gets the Tonight show.

I think Conan for the most part is predictable and silly. But I don't laugh much watching Leno either, especially the headlines are very silly. And who the f is that guy with the guitar who keeps going "yeah, uhuh, really". stfu!

Leno show is better than conan show IMO
I'd go with that. Unfortunately, I think they're both quite weak these days. Those shows should be weekly, not nightly. The formulas get too tired, the jokes thin, the hosts disinterested. They wind up pandering to the lowest common denominator too.

Leno is supposed to have been a truely awesome standup in his youth. He once turned up for a little show (before he was famous) to find that the warm up and the next act had both been no-shows. Still in his motor-cycling gear, he got onto the stage in front of a restless crowd, and instead of his expected 15 minute slot, spent the next hour and a half ad libing. :thumb:

Leno's retiring in two years (or thereabouts), and Conan taking his place. I'd be interested to see who gets Conan's job though.

There's an opening huh. How about you and I go for a double act? :D

Like someone said, I like Jon Stewart.
I'd never heard of him, but I'm looking at a couple of videos (on comedycentral.com), and he's pretty good.

Really? He's quite famous actually. And very funny. He's been in a few movies as well.

I never watch American late night shows anymore; they're too often too American. I don't get the jokes so I don't find them funny. Plus; they don't broadcast them on Dutch TV anymore (we used to have David Letterman among others) due to lack of popularity.

I'm a fan of Dutch late night show "JENSEN!", which is too fooking funny to describe in a couple of lines here. Plus, it's all about Dutch society so it's 'much closer to home'.
