As douchy as he regularly looks, and as doofy as he looks singing right now, Bono has one hell of a voice.

Man, tomorrow night's show is a really, really hard sell, especially because they're premiering the Guardians of the Galaxy trailer on Kimmel. Also, you know... Seinfeld.

The REAL Goobusters posted:Kimmel sucks though. Nah. He has his moments (for example: Any time Matt Damon shows up). Also, that Guardians trailer is gonna rock. That reminds me, who are Conan's signature guests? Like, the people who, when they show up, you know you're getting a good show? Fallon has Timberlake, Kimmel has Matt Damon, Craig has Kristen Bell, but who does Conan have? And for that matter, what about Letterman?

Does Norm really show up that often? I mean, I know Norm on Conan is gold, but is he like a regular thing? (I genuinely have no idea)

Looking at the guest list for this week, I think they're really trying to both make Jimmy as comfortable as possible and show people exactly what a Fallon hosted show is. The first two nights are people who are either really hard to not like (Will Smith) or people who the Leno crowd will know and like (Seinfeld), and then you've got a couple SNL guests, The First Lady, and ending it with the quintessential Fallon Guest, Mr. Justin Timberlake.

And just in case we've forgotten who the real king of late night is, Craig Ferguson just got Gary Oldman to dance with a fake horse. edit: Seriously what does Craig do to charm literally every woman in Hollywood between the ages of 18 and 90-whatever Betty White is?

I'm actually kinda excited for Late Night tonight, partially because I missed last night and want to see how Meyers does, and partially because I think it's hilarious that they have Kanye West and Russell Wilson, who are on complete opposites of the "How Scary Is That Black Person" dichotomy.

It should also be mentioned that not only was Joan Rivers a friend of Johnny, bur she actually guest-hosted the Tonight Show quite a bit, to the point where she was the designated guest host for a few years until she took her own show. The only person who guest hosted more than Joan during Johnny's time on the show was Joey Bishop, and that was wayyyyy earlier in his run.

Nah, he won't stay in character, it wouldn't be nearly as interesting, and would turn off a lot of the prime late show audience (old people). I am curious if he'll continue to pronounce his name with the silent 't'. I've said it Col-bear for so long it would be wear to talk about Stephen Col-Bert.

bobkatt013 posted:Didn't Craig say he did not want it? Yeah, he's always said he'd step down when Dave left, but I'm hoping he'll stick around in his little corner of late night, dancing with fake horses and trading barbs with his robot sidekick in perpetuity.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:That animal segment on Fallon last night was loving hilarious and probably one of the best animal segments on a late night show I've ever seen. Jimmy and Rosario Dawson really get into it. This dude is like a big 10-year-old around these animals, it's obvious he's doing his dream job. Also funny: Kids looking ashamed of their parents because they don't know a thing about Harry Potter.

DJ Pauls Gimp Arm posted:I can't agree more. I was born in '82 so I never saw Dave's Late Night live, but Conan's Late Night pretty much defined the last half of the 90's for me. As a gen x'er I just can't see how Seth Meyers' could ever have the same relevance, but I guess thats just how it goes. I am definitely planning on going back and checking out whatever clips I can find of Dave's NBC days. The late night host who was that for me was Craig Ferguson, but unlike those guys, who got to live their careers out on late night TV, Craig got pushed off to make room for that dumb Brit git. For whatever reason, I'm very unattached to the early nineties as a pop cultural era, so grunge, Simpsons, Conan, all do nothing for me. Craig was something I just found one day and he had a weird horse and amazing interviews and a robot sidekick, and I'm a little jealous that y'all get/got to watch their guy carve a niche while mine is hosting a game show and starring in failed pilots.

Deep Hurting posted:He even looked like a smug, mouth-breathing douchebag immediately, the moment he stepped out on the stage. Very Hannityesque. Watch some moments of Craig's Late Late Show. He had things like eulogizing his mom, and his dad, talking about his alcoholism and why he won't make fun of Britney Spears, and his interview with Bishop Desmond Tutu, which got him a Peabody award. The Biden interview was fantastic, I think it was two guys who really connected with each other on a number of levels having a very honest conversation, but it's not the first time this has happened on a CBS late night show. Colbert and Craig have more honesty in them than Leno and Letterman, and even Carson or Conan did/do. Fallon and Meyers are very honest, but they're also really surface level, much more happy to trade cute silly stories rather than have discussions or dig in a little, which I chalk up to NBC not ever letting them get serious. Corden i dunno

WITNESS THE POWER! posted:I just had this thought: Do late night hosts have the option to decline a guest? Kim Kardashian is a more interesting guest and better person than most of the tech guys Colbert has had on so far. I assume CBS has the ability to say "this person has to come on" to Stephen, but how much they're integrated into the show is probably up to Colbert and his team. If they don't really want to deal with someone, they'd probably just give the typical "celebrity interview" and leave it at that.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:I've seen them live like 3 times before. They're great. Haven't seen tonight's Colbert yet, but when I saw they were on the episode, I wondered why they hadn't been on a late night show before. They seem like they'd make a perfect guest for that format. I'm currently living in Chicago, and a few months ago when I was browsing Craigslist, I saw an ad looking for an assistant for the Acro-Cats show, I seriously considered applying for a brief moment before I regained control of my mind. Would've been cool to meet Colbert though. Also, gently caress Bill Maher.

I have to point this out because it's loving absurd: Bassem Yousef, in addition to doing all the cool poo poo he talked about on Colbert tonight (hosting a satire show that he stopped only because the government basically made him, etc.), he is also a fully trained cardiac surgeon. He had to choose between doing his first real TV show in Egypt and doing a pediatric cardiology fellowship in Cleveland, and provided aid during the Arab Spring protests. Dude's amazing.
