SNL actors breaking character to laugh

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Here. I can't remember a sketch where he didn't do it.

He was in one of the skits, in the video I posted. Jimmy Fallon is still funny, I think. He makes me laugh fairly often.

Me to.





Oh wait, you meant "with" instead of "at."

Steve Allen
Jack Paar
Johnny Carson
Jay Leno
Conan O'Brien
Jimmy Fallon

One of these things is not like the others...

Stephen Valentine Patrick William Allen.


I don't think he has enough first names. He needs more.

John Paul Jeff Tim Gary William Jones. . . . The III. He's my favorite.

I'm not a Fallon fan either, but at least he's not Leno.

I can find billions of people who aren't Leno that'd be a better choice than Jimmy fucking Fallon.

I'd have picked Jay Leno off your list. He's just as annoying as Seinfeld. Maybe worse because he's also a major douche. Jimmy Fallon is funny more often than not. Very entertaining.

Jay's easily the second worst on that list. Seinfeld is a thousand times better than Leno. That show's been run by fucking substitute teachers since Carson left, with the brief stint by Conan the exception.

I remember seeing Carson on his show once... laughing his ass off... shoulders shaking, chest convulsing.... but he kept an entirely straight face. which made it all the goddam funnier.

Fallon didn't get picked because he's the funniest or the best. He got picked because he plays the system well.

I respect that.

I just don't think he's funny.

That's not what makes me potentially tune in to a show.

No, they expect their marketing hype to do that.

The problem with Fallon is that a lot of folks got tired of his act when he was on SNL. He was easily one of the worst cast members. You know how they write their own skits and whatnot? Remember all the memorable ones he came up with? Don't worry, nobody else does either.

There is NOTHING edgy about him. Nothing original. He is so corporate created that I'm amazed he doesn't have tattoos of the sponsors logos.
