He's remotely funny to me.

Do you hate him?

Not funny, and has that weird pastey face.

I don't hate him I just don't think that I have ever even chuckled at something he said. But, I have only seen his monologue a few times and have never watched the show all the way through. I once liked Letterman but don't care for that show anymore. Get tired of the constant conservatives (pick one) bashing.

Craig Ferguson is funnier than Letterman or O'Brien at this point.

Conan is great.

Yes he has had stinker show but everyone does.
Last weeks shows were all money.

I like Conan. But I haven't caught late night shows like that in years.

I think Conan's skits are VERY funny.....but I think he is a terrible interviewer. And his monologue usually sucks, to me.

That being said, I thought he was a riot at the Oscars a couple of years ago - or whatever the hell he hosted.

I don't think the time slot works well with his demographic. Older people tend to carry over from the news (although i doubt anyone watches the wvla news) and he tends to alienate older audiences.

My father was a big Leno fan and when I asked him if he enjoyed Conan, he let me know he "hated" him because he is a weird looking sissy. Something tells me he really does represent a sample of people his age.

HOWEVER, I think most of Conan's core audience goes to bed later and would tune in during Fallon (argh). The whole NBC nighttime line-up is a train wreck now.

Agreed. Letterman's constant liberal obsession has ruined him IMHO & Obrien just isn't funny. Ferguson has them both beat.

I use to like Conan, but since he has been on the Tonight Show, I think he has gone way down hill.

I have heard that the younger audiences tend to like Conan more than the older (of which I suppose I am on of those). I don't get The Office either so maybe it is just an age thing.

that's because old people do not understand lots of things like how to set...well anything, humor, and the worldwide interweb

I am guessing you are trying to be humorous. Pretty poor attempt. Another guess - 7th grade?

+ 1...no idea how people don't find Conan funny.

and whoever said he sucks at interviewing is crazy..he makes boring people seem fun.

I enjoyed watching Aaron Eckhart get really annoyed with him.
