The Fallon Flop

[George K]

Fallon is talented, likable, and funny.

I just with that all these shows would go back to being entertainment rather than propaganda. And that includes Gutfeld.

I'm glad that I'm usually asleep at 10PM.

[Horace]

Gutfeld is supposed to be picking sides. Different product.

[Mik]

Fallon, for as likable as he is, offers a sophomoric humor that does not appeal to me. I do like him in conversations, but the games and stunts leave me cold. They all try to be letterman and fail.

[Jolly]

Even Letterman wasn't funny after a certain point .

[Doctor Phibes]

I don’t think you chaps are really his target audience, tbh. Or me, come to that.

Do young people watch Gutfeld?

[Catseye3]

I just went and listened to a couple of sentences of Gutfeld . . . meh. His voice is annoying, and his material is lame.

Pass.

[Copper]

Gutfeld isn't very funny. He cracks himself up, no question.

None of them could touch Carson when he had Dangerfield, Rickles, Seinfeld, Carlin, Sinatra, Grodin and some others.

Jonathan Winters.

[Rainman]

Watching Carson was like watching the warm and funny moments of a 30-year class reunion. Always courteous, old friends.

Yes, to a certain extent.

He beats everyone else on tv.

2.5 million - that's less than 1% of the population.

I reckon the country has better things to do nowadays than watch these shows.

None draw what they used to, when options were more limited.
