I never got Jimmy Fallon. I never understood why it was supposed to be charming that he couldn't get through a skit without breaking. I don't think he's that good looking. He doesn't ask interesting questions.

He feels the need to react big to every single thing his guest says.

Every thing to him is the funniest thing that he has ever heard, and it just comes across so fake.

Watching the Bill Burr interviews that Conan does to Fallon really shows you how stark of a comparison it is.

All of these late night talk show host are terrible. Just wanna bash Trump & laugh at their own jokes. King of late night Johnny Carson was so much better. In the 80's & 90's Letterman was entertaining to.

He might be the least funny comedian in the history of television but he keeps failing up.

This is the same guy who couldn’t make it through any skit on SNL without breaking out into hysterical laughter.

Because he's a joke.


The way he looks. The way he dresses. The things he says. If you put political bias aside, Trump is an easy target.

Yeah, to be fair it is hard for me to watch that skit at home without busting out laughing...it's one of my top five funniest skits on SNL.

But the fact that he did it in what feels like almost every sketch he was in was just annoying as hell. Like someone said, for whatever reason people found it charming in a way and loved him for it, whereas I absolutely hated him.

I've caught clips here and there of his shows and some of them I like (such as some of the games he plays, the rap things with Timberlake, the songs with kid toys segments), but I think his show as a whole, and him as a whole, are things that I very much don't like.

Downvoters there forgetting that for 30 years before he ran and won, Trump was a punchline with money.

Last election was so bad even the commies split and I had to toss my vote to the Veterans Party. Don't even know who they are. But None of the Above wasn't an option and I had other things to cast a vote for.

Didn't he lose it in the cowbell skit and have to bite on a drumstick to keep from totally cracking up?
