It probably helped that Conan himself was a comedy writer.


He had probably the two top writing jobs you could get as a writer for the Simpsons and SNL.

I personally think Fallon is pretty hysterical in sketches, but he just can't pull off late night hosting.

I would have to think that Leno and Letterman would both be terrible in sketch comedy.

Horrible. And SNL has bee awful for too long now. It used to go in cycles, but I guess the 'younger generation' just doesn't know funny anymore? Wondering if it'll ever be good again.

was probably made by Laugh-In diehards when they initially saw SNL for the first time. To be honest, I don't think SNL has ever been uniformly funny.

He has good guest's though. I love his goal of trying to get every member of Saved By The Bell on his show at least once
