Smart move by Fallon. I think Fallon sometimes gets unfairly lumped in with Kimmel, Colbert and Meyers. In recent years he may have given in to pressure to be more political, but I don't think he's a true believer like the other three.

I find Fallon to not be particularly partisan, but he isnt principled. He will do whatever he is told to do.

Gutfeld is old for his first showbiz break but better late than never.

I think this is Fallon reading the writing on the wall and making the conscious decision to make a few career-saving moves in moving more toward the center.

Of all the late night hosts, he is the most tolerable, and I have watched him on the occasion that he has people from Nintendo on to show off their latest stuff (he’s a huge gamer, and when Zelda: Breath of the Wild was slated for release, he hosted a preview of that on the show.

That said, he doesn’t hold a candle to Jay Leno, and isn’t even in the ballpark of Johnny Carson.

With his anal jokes and gay fixation, he’ll fit right in. I’ll pass.

We haven’t watched Fox since 2020, but happened to go there last night. Watch Jimmy Failla, then Gutfeld immediately after. Both were very good.

Fallon had Christian comedian John Crist on the show recently. Thought that was interesting.

Jimmy Fallon is a good comedian funny and leanns on the left and other stupid people and the things they do.

He makes Trump jokes because his bosses at NBC told him to do it.

He'll rather be apolitical.

Can’t wait miss it. Fallon, Kimmel and Colbert can line up to kiss my Irish ass.
