literally all they have to do is get good hosts and I'll watch it. I was watching The Tonight Show almost every night until it was revealed what a shitty boss Jimmy Fallon is

Even then I'd rather watch the host do almost anything else. I love Conan but really have no interest in the late night format. His travel shows are great though.

well, that was the thing. Conan knew that, that's why his show was like 50% remotes. same with James Corden, it was the shit they recorded outside the studio that made them popular. even with jimmy f., his show is constantly crammed full of gimmicks, the only one doing a straight talk show anymore is Stephen Colbert and he's turned into a political intellectual. I don't mean that insultingly, but that's not what I'm looking for at 12:30 a.m.
