"I am overjoyed to see a CZcamsr and a woman of color in that slot. That's awesome! Now please be funny!"
Couldn't have said it better myself.
I think she only got her role because of the fact that she's a woman of color (it's definitely not because she's funny), and the reason why she didn't get a better timeslot was because others already had those spots cemented, and she was a CZcamsr and they didn't want the competition.

This is my issue with ‘diversity hires’. They literally only see the color of their skin and gender and don’t care about their experience, their skills, or their character. It cheapens the medium and the people themselves that get hired that way.
There's already been a women of color on late night tv...that's the thing lmao

I remember reading a comment that Lily Singh was the equivalent of a company turning their logo into a rainbow for Pride month
Ryan Leatigaga that’s so strangely accurate
I think she's just.... artificial. Like if you were to ask a company what their idea of humor was and gave them the power to create someone based off of that.
Not even me and my lgbtq+ friends watch the show
@@ryanleatigaga7596 Everybody spread it around: Lily Singh is a robot. Of color.
When NBC’s logo is a rainbow *every* month, they gotta have new ways to step it up.
Jimmy Kimmel is like that one uncle who says something offensive and then laughs as everyone is uncomfortable. Also, he managed to make Markiplier visibly annoyed. That is a feat within itself.
Markiplier? When?

He got alot of hate years ago for making a tone deaf segment talking trash about gamers and video games, then theres how he spent 4 years basically doing nothing but talk about trump. Which got old and annoying quick.
Absolutely agree about Fallon-not too bright, but harmless/fun. Not a comedy god but doesn’t deserve the level of hate he gets
He absolutely sucks.. Look at Norton.. That's a real party late night host who's actually funny
I have a deep seated hatred for Jimmy Fallon because I live in the town he's from. He is worshipped like an idol. Fuck Jimmy, mid.
Nah cuz I absolutely agree 💯
I especially loved that he didn't dip his toes into politics. I fucking hate it when I'm tryna have a laugh but then the host or whoever throws in some political opinion. Like, I know what's happening in the news, I'm watching this show to get my mind off the absolute shit show happening in the world since I (for the most part) cannot do anything about it myself. It's frustrating, but Fallon's an outlier and I very much appreciated it when I was watching TV
Harmless? He knowingly enabled Sasz to fuck a high school girl and bring her to Hollywood parties
There are some people who hate Fallon because they confuse him for Kimmel

James dean starring in new movie
Nah, after the Peter Cushing shitstorm, most of the talent agencies put clauses in actors' contracts to prohibit that.
James dean is coming back. Lol
"money hungry corporations" very dirivitive
One other thing to mention about Conan is that he fully paid his entire staff out of pocket when he was in between jobs. That’s admirable
I’ll always appreciate how lighthearted and harmless Jimmy Fallon is. His guests always appear to have fun and stay relaxed, and he clearly cares about the people he interviews
Yeah, he's not the funniest guy and awkward moments exists but the guests clearly are comfortable so it works
Sorry, 7 months later, but I agree. Jimmy has always been very safe. Like he's reliably funny enough, his guests seem happy, you could put it on for your old grandpa, your mum, and your kids and everyone would enjoy it. Kimmel irks me, the others I barely know. Fallon would be top three for me - Conan, Graham Norton, then Fallon. Though I will admit, post pandemic, Jimmy seems to have completely run out of speed. He seemed just so tired the last episode I watched
I didn't like how Lilly just conveniently forgot a number of important pioneers of color on TV (including Oprah) to make herself seem like more of a big deal. Don't erase people who paved the way for you in a much harder era.
I just don't like Lilly Singh, she's so unfunny and annoying.
@@lollypopp4240Agree
Everyone forgets that Joan Rivers was the first woman on late night
Her race and gender are the only thing she has. She's not funny, likeable or attractive, so she has to ignore that she's not the first minority woman TV host. Like the Hollywood shills who conveniently forget that movies have had female leads since (at least) the thirties, so they can tout their "female led" action film as groundbreaking
Yes! This is the frustrating part: in her effort to be labeled the wokest of them all, she literally refuses to acknowledge so many amazing people who came before her. People of diverse backgrounds, who actually struggled, and were not just handed a television spot.
If they wanted a gay woman of color who is actually funny to host a show, they should have gone with Wanda Sykes.
Funny things is she had a show on Fox yet Lilly pretends like she's the first.
or Amber Ruffin.
Brett Domenick lily singh is gay?
But there lies the problem...it still wouldn't be funny at all. The problem isn't Lilly just like it wouldn't be Wanda either. The problem is the execs & the overly pc culture and its very artificial. Hardly any of us can actually relate to that. It's why so many of us left tv long long ago. They think if they brought part of CZcams to TV, it would bring people back but all it did was prove tv sucks even more.
@@TabithaStabitha I mean the writing is also bad... But Wanda Sykes is funny as hell and definitely has way more real personality than Lilly who has no background in any real comedy off of cheap children's content on CZcams. She can't improvise to save her life.
In his podcast Conan said that when he was starting the show he would wear himself out trying to make the couple hundred people in the live audience laugh so that when the show would start for millions of people he would already be sweating and tired. I think thats what makes Conan so special, he just wants to make whoever is in front of him laugh and we’re just lucky it gets filmed.
It's crazy to watch the documentary Conan O'Brien Can't Stop because there are so many instances where people kind of force social interaction on him, whether it's his producer booking way too many meet and greets or some dancers in the show bringing their entire extended family back stage and every single time he's instantly "on," being both very nice and very funny to everyone involved. It seems like it's such a fundamental part of who he is. He just can't help but perform.
@@Spo8 yeah, I laugh at his scraps the most. Kinda want it more than the real show
This is such an interesting video to watch two years later, post-pandemic. I only watch Seth Meyers, and during the pandemic he has doubled and tripled down on including his writers and staff as such an integral part of the show. The show never felt more intimate than when Seth was yelling at the crew about how Scollins wrote X bad joke and you can just hear the cackles of *individuals* more than just of the crowd of an audience. Adding Wally as a mainstay to the on-camera cast is such a weird and pleasant thing I don't even know how to put into words what it feels like. Not to mention the interaction with the online audience because that's the only feedback he can get. It feels like Seth Meyers has really transitioned into a newer era of late night while keeping the bones of the old format the same.
"Post-pandemic." If only...
AND AMBER GOT A SHOW
holy shit yea, i feel like for a while thats how stephan colbet was for a while, but then when he went back to in person he lost me :/
Hhaha dude I hate the Wally stuff. So cringe. But, I guess that's the point. Seth is the only late night I can tolerate nowadays too.
Wally is planning a very slow moving coup

I know what Jimmy meant! A nap is different from a REM deep sleep. Yes they are both ultimately sleep and it sounds really stupid on the surface, but there is a difference!
Exaaaaactly!
also language is such a messy, fluid thing. it's perfectly reasonable imo that to him a nap may only be "sleeping lightly while sitting down" or smth like that. like. i make a very specific distinction between the words "sleepy" and "tired" despite them being used interchangeably by most ppl.
altho i will say jimmy has always struck me as a little bit head empty
@@GrayYeonWannabe Jimmy being a little bit head empty is probably caused by his narcolepsy, as narcolepsy causes problems with the brains thought process & how it stores memories.
I understood what he was saying, Louis was being a dick
as a neurodivergent person i was like “wait… is he-? no..” cause i have moments like these a lot with neurotypicals and it’s really annoying cause i do have a point but i just look stupid trying to explain it 🫠
I totally understand the nap vs sleep thing. Waking up from a good nights sleep is wonderful.
Waking up from a nap is hell on earth. Mouth dry, nauseous, not knowing where tf you are for a second, what time is it, and then the realization that you’ve ruined your sleep schedule.
yeah plus the sore throat
He forgot about America's favorite talk show host: Eric Andre
TIME TO DELIVER THE PIZZA BALL
Nick Lawson I don't trust like that!
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
america’s sweetheart
Yeah... Let’s give a quick shout out to Christina Applegate
I think Jimmy is one of those people that laughs whenever he's enjoying himself, uncomfortable, or in danger. Uses it as a mood elevator and a coping mechanism.
I'm guessing Fallon?
I've just realized that Fallon would make a so-bad-it's-good Joker.
Maybe its like a tourettes
HAH HHAH HAH HAH HAHA *Slams table*
You just described Phoenix's Joker
I'm with Jimmy on the nap vs sleep thing, I know you sleep during both activities but a nap and your main snooze are two very different things!
Thank you. Obviously, taking a random nap and going to sleep for the night are different things? I'm questioning who is 'stupid' here lol.
Exactly. I think everyone understood what Jimmy was saying... he even clarifies it by saying sleep is like the ultimate nap. Jimmy was brilliant for once (even if unintentionally) and Louis trashed him for it.
I have some bad news for you guys. Lol
I scrolled through the comments to see if someone said this. Totally agree that Jimmy's point was not stupid. The blunder was that he was interrupting Louis's bit. He should have brought up his observation after the bit was finished.
Yeah there's a big difference between a nap and a regular nights sleep.
The thing I liked about Craig Ferguson was that he found the right balance of being funny himself, while not overshadowing his guests, and, like Conan, was secure enough to often make himself the joke, while again not overdoing it. It genuinely seemed like his guests enjoyed being there.
Craig, Conan, and Pete Holmes’ short lived show were probably the best of all time
Graham Norton show is definitely the show where celebrities just go on to "have fun and have a good time"
Yep yep yep. Plus his show doesn’t fit into the usual cookie cutter mold, I think he’s definitely one of the best
This is exactly why I love watching graham
100% agree I feel like by letting then swear and drink makes them feel more comfortable
Conan and the Scottish guy, I forget his name, are the only American late show hosts who even get remotely close to Norton. It's laughable how some of them act with guests, cringe inducing.
Yes.
Conan is amazing because he changes with the times and the joke is always on him, he’s like an anti boomer
Rachel kelly I would watch a full time Conan travel show.
yes
LMAO
Conan is the best at the business right now IMO. I think he'll be considered one of the best late-night show hosts ever when he eventually quits.
Raphael I’m just hoping he’ll be considered that while he’s still around and not once he’s gone he deserves the credit
I really wish i hadn't slept on Craig Ferguson when he had his late night show, because just watching his compilations of going into crying laughing fits and his banters with Geoff the Skeleton always puts me in a good mood. A great example of "you don't need a large budget to make a good late night show."
Tbh Drew Gooden would be a fantastic late night host
Yeah that’s actually a really good idea, we need to tell this to Drew
or anthony padilla, since he’s already kinda doing the interviewing thing
I'd stay up late every night to watch that tbh
I know that his show isn't American, but Graham Norton is just top tier for me.
Definitely
@@elijahpierson I don't know what Americans define as late night, but his show is on Friday nights from 9-10pm
Yes!!!
Exactly! Many celebrities have said they love graham's show, that they truly had the best time with him.
Jim fallon mzy be nice but is not funny, stars don't seem to have fun with him.
Isnt he always ranting on twitter and making orange man jokes?
I appreciate how Conan often picks his own musical guests and often times they’re lesser known artists, it has really catapulted some careers.
Because of Conan, I discovered Phoenix. Eternally grateful to him for that.
I was looking for this comment! I think he wants to give people a chance because of the chance stolen from him
Conan actually has a CD of performances from his show in the 90s. It's REALLY good.
Conan is also the reason the early seasons of The Simpsons are comedic gold and where majority of its memes came from.
he also does this with comedians. Many bigger American comedians had their "big break" on Conan
I miss the Colbert Report so much. I know he couldn't do it forever but it was such magic. I agree that Conan is one of the best traditional late night hosts, if not THE best. But Stephen had something with the Colbert Report that wasn't even in the same realm as traditional late night, it was in a category all by itself.
Yeah, it stings so much to have Colbert's late night show fall so flat when the Report was one of my favorite comedy shows of all time.
stephen colbert was so funny and personable on tv but my dad did his roof and according to him he’s not very friendly irl lol
"Johnny Carson is dead and he'll never be alive again. That's how death works."
Gee whiz I sure am learnin' today
I’m disappointed that you didn’t even talk about the greatest late night host, Eric Andre
Cheers, I'll drink to that, bro
BIRD UP
Does it count tho?
Ladies and Gentlemen, Im sorry to inform you, but I did not get the review on Eddy Burback's channel. My body, is now your communion, eat from me.

Conan is like the opposite of a boomer, I don’t know how to explain. Not like a millennial, but am adapting human. It’s odd, but nice
Best show host
You mean he's Gen X?
it’s almost like categorizing a person based on their generation leads to error :/
He feels so fake tho.

One quick note is that I don't think NBC force Billy sing to do the old format. If you look at the show she took over, the previous version of it was well suited to her style, I thought she would have been a perfect host for the show Carson Daly was doing. I think she was so in love with the idea of being a brown woman hosting a late night show that the best idea she had was to do the exact same show as what comes on earlier.
I absolutely agree but I have to point out that you made a typo. "Billy" should be Lily. But other than that I agree sorry I just had to mention.
Conan is amazing at ending his Late Night era with a bang. Because he ended his show on his own terms without losing the quality. His HBO Max Variety Series as well as his Podcasts and CONAnwithout borders Specials will also continue as well into the future.
I kind of get what Jimmy Fallon means with his whole sleeping vs napping logic.
There's two possibilities:
1. Jimmy Fallon defines "napping" as simply resting ones eyes for a while, maybe being in a meditative state without much thought, but still being awake for all intents and purposes.
2. Jimmy Fallon calls the act of sleeping for several hours in the night "Sleep", and any sleep during the day or shorter than 6-8 hours "nap."
I would assume #1 to be the likelier explanation.
Source: Am a little bit stupid.
That's what I thought too! Still embarrassing, though yikes...
I agree, I kind of knew what he meant but he definitely could've made it clearer. Or just not said it, since it's confusing and sounds dull, and he's available for millions of people to see.
yea the whole point of being the host is that you are smart enough to not ask questions that will disrupt the obvious joke that is being set up
#1 is not what napping is, and is therefore stupid, and #2 is a 3 year old's definition of 'Sleep' and is fucking stupid for a grown man to think. Either way, Fallon is an idiot here.
BoredOf Randomness didn’t Jimmy Fallon say he’s narcoleptic? I’m narcoleptic as well and I’ve always thought of napping and sleeping as two very different things, so maybe that’s how he sees it too?
The time that Kimmel laughed while Megan Fox was basically telling him straight out that she was being sexualized by men in Hollywood when she was 15 years old made me instantly hate him.
Is there a clip of it?

So glad the love for Conan is strong. He is my favorite as well and he deserves so much more praise. 100% I never watch any late night on TV and it is all through CZcams. Conan will forever be my fave! Awesome video by the way!!
For those who are wondering, Lily’s show ended after two years on air
Good riddance. never should've given her the time slot in the first place.
Maybe there is a god
ima be real, that "regardless how you feel please dont boo him, hes my guest" hit home with me. Thats some real shit right there those people needed to hear.
I agree. I’m kind of the therapist in my friend group and it bothers me when people belittle others (like Louis CK did to Jimmy Fallon because he was irked). And Stephen setting ground rules to calm the group down enough to get through the interview without it being a negative and ugly thing is really cool. There are people that are nauseatingly horrible people. But there’s a way to be a person, and lowering yourself when you interact with them does good for exactly no one.
Instead of having a bit of a power trip of all these people who love Stephen and agree with his political views and letting it happen, he went with kindness and order. It should be common and nothing special or interesting, but it’s not. And I respect him for it.
That part really made me happy. We unfortunately don’t see that often.
ConLee if Ted Cruz comes on to TV to say gay people don’t deserve human rights I’m damn sure going to boo him
Amara Jordan I agree that it shouldn’t be a spectacular or special thing, but yeah in 2019 it seems rare to let someone speak that you don’t agree with.
Seth Lattner my whole thing is people should be able to listen to an entire statement from someone that they don’t agree with without interrupting them (booing). You not agreeing with someone does not give you the right to just be a douchebag in the crowd, regardless if you are on the “popular opinion”
The sad thing is that when Lilly's show is cancelled which it will, is that she'll just say the world wasnt ready for a female POC as a late night host and it will take even longer for more diversity to come to a dying genre
lol i swear i heard that somewhere
Welp. Let's hope it'll get cancelled after... *SEASON 2* (shutter)
As a bisexual Indian woman, I hate that she's the main representation we get :(
I used to love Lilly's content back in 2012-2013, but she just isn't funny anymore
Let's hope she gets better and I can finally stop this brown man on brown woman violence
wanda sykes did it first, i don’t know why she gets all the credit
I guess he hadn't started doing them when you made this video, but I discovered Seth Meyers during the pandemic and on CZcams, he's started this segment called Corrections. It really plays into online audience participation via the comments section and also lets him flex his writing and delivery skills in a sort of playful, reverse heckling rant. Great jokes, and you learn stuff. Also, I second the bit you mentioned about him crediting his writers, he talks about them so much it's almost like they're co-hosts at this point lmao

I watch Conan because of Conan. I only watch the 3 Jimmy's if I like the guest. To me, that's the difference between Conan and the other hosts.
The only late night hosts I watch are Conan, Seth, Oliver, and Trevor
Same 😂😂😂
blu Seth’s opening bits are often times just awful, I only watch the Closer Look on CZcams.
Retro Central You should try Hasan Minhaj.
Absolutely.
Watching Conan's remotes and his interviews with Bill Burr on CZcams was the very reason why I started watching the other Late Night content. I don't think I would have if it were any other Late Night host. Conan is the GOAT of Late Night for my generation and I think he always will be.
I once ended up randomly stuck in traffic next to Conan after being in his audience. I freaked out and started waving at him all crazy and he matched my energy back 😂 our 1 and only ever interaction and I acted like an idiot 😂😂
You didn’t act like an idiot. You acted excited and he understood that you really appreciated him! ❤❤
Conan always makes sure the joke is on him...
Except when Jordan Schlansky is concerned lol
Jordan pushed me back in the womb, just to make sure I was born on Hitler's birthday
Even with the Schlansky jokes I feel part of why they’re so funny is also how (comedically) horrible of a boss and person Conan can be
What are you talking about!? Jordan prepares his body in varous ways.
ChargerBulldogs19 it also feels like it’s an inside joke between two friends that we get to be apart of.
While we're at it let's change sitcoms too

I think the Graham Norton show does the concept of late night shows perfectly, it feels so comfortable and as if they are all just friends. I'm not sure if it fits the more sketch-based, slapstick American humour but I think its definitely worth checking out :)

Saying this as a transgender guy who would love to be in comedy and entertainment... I think the way you can most powerfully normalize being a minority in a position not usually held by minorities... is to just *BE* it. Continuing to draw attention back to how you're different from the people typically in your position does not serve to make people feel normal about the type of person you are being just as worthy of being in all kinds of positions in society. Act like a normal person, act like you belong where you are, and people will be like, "oh shit wait, such-and-such type of people are just like everybody else," even if it's happening not so consciously. You don't get that result if you constantly drawn attention back to how you're different (and demonize the majority/privileged type of person by conflating that category of person with being bigoted or prejudiced). That doesn't normalize women, people of color, lgbt people, etc, in positions not traditionally held by them at all. That doesn't mean you can't mention it, fit it into your works at all, but at your core, you should be competent and good at what your job is. Not just a token figure for progress. That doesn't create real change to peoples' perspectives and perceptions.
I think you have a great point. I feel like people feel confronted sometimes, and they feel like it’s so strange, it must change the person so much that they can’t be relatable or just like other people (with a differences that are stigmatized). I think it’s why seeing people who may be labeled something along the lines of “flamboyant,” tends to upset people who either aren’t interested in changing their perspective or who feel so negatively that it’s like an assault on what they consider to be a more sound and proper culture.
I also think that’s why a lot of people only change their perspective on these things when someone they’ve known for years happens to be gay, bi, trans, etc. They know that person so well, and they’re like other people. They’re often very good people. So they get confronted by something far more familiar. If they respond negatively, it seems it’s often a feeling of betrayal or shame, and even that often calms down.
I’m in the South and my religious parents had to make a decision to either accept my brother or cut ties due to a vague feeling of wrongness. They’ve been model parents, with the only exception being sexuality (I’m 29 and they expect me to be a virgin until I’m married, and it not really cause any big problems, since I’m considered such a good Christian; after all, they waited, until they got married... at 19, so that must be the same, right?). They landed on what they usually do. When in doubt, show love and be kind, treat others as you want to be treated. Mom’s on board partially because of the stuff that’s come out about the science side. My dad has low T and my brother does, and with treatment for that my brother still feels as he always has.
Dad is still getting his head around it. I think the thought is just still disturbing to him, since it’s really not an attractive idea to him. I’ve talked with him about the translation issue on if a Bible reference was talking about homosexuality or what could be an alternate translation referring to an adult molesting a kid. And even if the translation IS in reference to two people of the same gender and relative age, there were reasons it was a huge problem for people to be gay in that time. They were tribes trying to gain strength, power, influence, and land. They had to stick together and thrive to survive. A guy not having a wife and kids was such a huge deal in that culture, a betrayal of the lineage because it would end, a betrayal of the people because they need soldiers, seen as a betrayal of himself because who would take care of him if he became ill or old? He’d be a burden on the community, one they couldn’t easily afford. Letting that be accepted would be dangerous.
Since my Dad isn’t someone who believes the Bible is the final word and totally literal, that route of talking with him has been helpful, I think. Also talking to him about the general history of non-cis people through history is helpful. There are records of people who ended up either cross dressing or finding a niche in society where they were allowed to take on the role of the other gender, especially in Asia and Rome. Sometimes it was considered holy, others it was stigmatized. But that history does a lot to dispel the vague notion that this is somehow a new thing, that just didn’t exist before, when people were good and moral and normal. (Extreme sarcasm there.) We’re slowly becoming more accepting, getting past the tribalism we’ve always dealt with. As racism becomes less powerful, other categories of bias and bigotry will be focused on as the negative and small-minded mindsets they are.
To get back to the confrontation you were talking about. What bothers my father the most now that he’s had time and more information is when my brother goes off topic and says something pretty graphic about his relationships. It’s often a joke, but my family is pretty straight laced and... wholesome. We don’t drink or smoke or enjoy blue comedy. So my brother’s way of just spouting off stuff we’d rather not think about (like they’d not like to hear about me being intimate with a guy) is so confronting, in several ways; that it makes them feel more negative about his sexuality. It’s just his personality, and he’d do it if he was straight; it doesn’t say anything about the community, which is as diverse as any other. But to THEM, since he’s the gay person they know, it feels like “they” all are kind of loud and brash and “unashamed,” about it.
We are no longer tribes. We don’t need every male possible to procreate. All of these “abnormal” sexualities that result in fewer kids aren’t dangerous to the continuation of our societies and some studies are showing it can be beneficial to have more people who, in theory, wouldn’t have their own kids and could either help others with theirs or help older family members. It’s part of why they think large families have a higher rate of non-cis kids.
I didn’t mean to go on a tangent, but as a writer and editor it’s kind of... a risk with me. 😅 You posited a really good point I’ve not thought much about in a few years. Since I don’t have to deal with the stigma of being in the community (I’m demi, but since my parents don’t want me to have any temptations to succumb to, the effect isn’t what they’d consider problematic), I always question myself and my own bias when I think on these kinds of things. I don’t want to sort of... pass judgment from my position of ease. So thinking about negative aspects of the community that may be unintentionally be impeding progress is not something I often think about or enjoy doing. But your point was so well thought out and intelligently put that I just sat there for a while and thought on it. I didn’t want to just pass by and not say anything. I really hope that progress is steady and that you’ll be treated like what you are, just another person, someone who deserves respect.
You also might ponder doing some writing. You organized your thoughts well and did a far better job of streamlining your situation and position than I. Some people write well naturally and assume it’s not special or very good because it’s not hard, but that is not the case. Just think about it. Best of luck. 🌷
bravestfuckingtoaster 100% agree! You’ve explained it so well
Competence is the mark of a good person.

I think PART of why Jimmy laughs so much is because it's an open secret on set that he has drinking problem. If it's true it explains why he often has a delay in his reactions. If you have a friend who is a giggly drunk, watch them and then watch Jimmy Fallon. I can't not see it. I think he needs help.
Real talk this video is so good, Ive rewatched it many times just cause it's so good. I've never been into late night but Eddy made me interested. Good stuff man
That scene with Louis ck and Jimmy was giving me anxiety lmfao
pooh nani how
@@bouch2442 7:13 because louis straight puts fallon under the spotlight, calling him stupid, and fallon just keeps on pushing it and doubling down to the point where Louis is like, c'mon dude can we just get past this dumb shit.
If you still don't understand, it's like "cringing" or 2nd hand embarrassment. Similar but not the same. It's more of an empathy side effect so not everyone experiences a certain type of anxiety when seeing awkward social situations.
I muted it, I cant handle the second hand embarrassment
@@jessyjulie5506 lmfao right
Oh God, same for me. The worst part for me is the fact that Jimmy is so close to making an actual point, but his dumb brain just isn't capable enough to do so. I think he's trying to ask, if Louis prefers naps over a good night's sleep. The question being, if he would knowingly spend a bad night in favor of a nap. Riveting content for sure, but at least not completely stupid
I saw Seth Meyers live once. One of the guests (Ryan Seacrest) couldn't show so they aired a previously recorded interview. So in place of that interview, Seth just walked around the studio audience and answered questions, and he seemed like a legitimately sweet guy. He's one of the few hosts today I don't roll my eyes at when I hear their name.
he seems really nice and down to earth and im glad that he's like that in real life and that he has such a platform
He was great on snl
yep
I love Seth so much, his acting on SNL is underrated too
To be honest Seth's monologues make me eye roll. His Daily Show "Panel" knockoffs make me eye roll. But when it comes to the rest of the show & the interviews I think he does a great job. He is the epitome of not liking someone's political views yet being able to get a beer with them & probably talk about anything else.
I hated the halloween candy thing. Parents laughing at their children being upset that the holiday they waited all year for was ruined, or so they thought
Napping and sleeping are different, naps imply short rests (e.i. "I'm gonna take a quick nap and then pick up the kids/run to the store/finish cleaning the house) while sleeping implies that whenever you wake up next is the beginning of what you would consider tomorrow.
Not enough ripping on Kimmel. By far the worst one.
Yeah I was hoping he'd tear into Kimmel more. He's been too much of an asshole for me to ever see him in a positive light.
He probably didn't do it because EmpLemon already did an in-depth criticism of Kimmel
Honestly Kimmel gives off boomer energy on par with Jay Leno
He used to be an even BIGGER asshole too....can u even imagine
@@NestOfThought so true
Graham Norton has some of the best one liners ever. He’s genuinely a very funny guy but he never tries to one up his guests but only adds to his guest’s humour
Exactly.
It's fun show rather than those boring talk shows.
Conan and graham being Irish though 😏😏(I know Conan is American but close Irish roots)
Thank you for mentioning Graham. He's superb.
Oh my god he's amazing.
And Graham Norton is pretty much why I can't watch James Corden. His is just a cheap imitation of the Graham Norton Show, as earnestly and sincerely as Corden is trying to be. He just can't handle "the couch".
I can always rewatch Eddys videos. You do a great job, man!:)
When I wanna see a party with my favorite celebrities every night I go on twitch or CZcams and watch a livestream. Sure it lacks the formality and glamor of late night but often times you get a lot more happiness from watching streamers you enjoy play jackbox or among us or Fortnite or whatever and I think it’s an interesting parallel to late night format
i remember when dakota johnson was on fallon and while she was trying to tell a story, fallon was just steamrolling her until she asked "aren't you supposed to let people talk on this show?"
i don't hate him but i can't watch him
Jimmy Fallon is like a really annoying puppy.
Fallon's interview with Joaquin Phoenix was worse. It was like watching the actual scene between Arthur and Murray.
I don't understand why everyone hates Jimmy Fallon's laugh when Jimmy Kimmel's sounds like a broken robot
What u think of jimmy carr
Why are there so many gosh darn Jimmys
Because nobody watches Jimmy Kimmel because Kimmel is a manipulative and unfunny communist.
midrangemonroe PERIODT
the sound of the laugh isn’t the problem
eddy i could literally watch you talk about this topic for hours in that i would LOVE a part 3 on like just conan (esp now that he’s not doing late night anymore) but also one that does include like john oliver and graham norton
Yes! A Conan legacy video
1:04 I was not emotionally prepared to hear the podcast theme song
“He’s kind of... st... stupid.” Legit had me dying
When you said you loved Conan I just muttered under my breath “good, good”. I was worried for a sec lol
same hahaha
Please tell me that you did it in the voice of Emperor Palpatine.
“Gooooooooooood.”
Me too! I think I held my breath.
"Reveal your Hatred!"
How can anyone not love Conan
Conan was the first late night show like that that I watched on my own too. Not something that was just on and my parents are watching so I'm also watching it. And it was the only late night show I actually enjoyed. I was so glad to see him come back and realize how many other people genuinely liked him as much as I did and do.
Showtime has also had some great late night shows over the past few years - Desus & Mero (though sadly their show was cancelled bc the guys had a falling out 😢) and more recently Ziwe!
"This video would be like an hour if I covered all the late night shows"
He acts like we wouldn't love that
For real lol
I can see a Part 2 coming
It should also be mentioned that O'Brien wrote some of the funniest Simpsons episodes. That is no small feat.
i have small feat
Which episode is that?
@@chameleon25 Marge vs the monorail and Homer goes to college come to mind. But I'm sure there's a couple more.
He's a Harvard graduate.
@@franciscofalabella4644 wow he wrote it?
Craig Ferguson was a legend as well! His Late Late Show with the robot and the pantomime horse was amazing!!
I’m so happy that I just randomly found your channel one day, literally my favorite CZcamsr now. Great videos man
yea I wish more people would address Tom cruise & Scientology hes literally in a cult
Nala 305 that’s how priest class works. ‘Definitely scuffed.
You would be surprised at how many people in Hollywood are Scientologists though. He is just the most outspoken. I watch the Handmaids tale and couldn't believe it when I found out that Elizabeth Moss is a Scientologist. Late Night hosts don't bring it up with any of them not just Tom Cruise
You guys know what happens to people who publicly criticize/question Scientology?
@@sorcha3541 What happens?
@@ooohhh99 oh no, they aren't replying
about a month ago, I went to see chris fleming at the largo and conan was sitting about a row behind us. my boyfriend and I are HUGE conan fans, we watch every remote and listen to the podcast together weekly. we decided not to bother him because he was with his family, but his laugh was so loud, real, and filled the entire small venue. he seemed to really love chris’s work and went to go talk to him after his show. we have also been to standup shows conan has set up in the LA area and every almost comic there thanks conan for giving them a chance and or starting career. my friend also worked on an animation piece for conan's sdcc appearance this year and he actually credited the studio on instagram and gave them a bunch of gifts. he just seems like such a good fucking dude, thank you for talking about him!
This makes me so happy! Chris Fleming is amazing and so deserves attention from luminaries like Conan O’Brien
Conan is the best
YESSSS I love now knowing Chris Fleming is known by Conan!!
He is a great guy, I enjoyed reading your comment too. Hope you have a good day
Fallon laughs out of anxiety. I'm biased tho because I laugh at everything too for the same reason.
Its been 5 days since Conan left tbs, end of a legendary show! I also appreciate Craig Ferguson for being one of the funniest late night hosts, very underrated.
“[my name] is dead and he’ll never be alive again. That’s how death works!” Is what I want on my gravestone
It's be legendary
It's Graham Norton who is the celebrities and the fan favourites. He is impeccable with his interviewing skills and his guests have so much fun on his show
Well its kinda obvious hes only looking at american shows because thats all he knows. Americans have to google who that is. I can guarantee almost nobody who lives in this country has heard of him. Im not sure how familiar you are with american shows either so this video could be pretty boring for you lol
@@TheLastApostle Ive heard and watched all of the hosts he mentions, but I wouldn't be surprised if Norton isn't that well known outside the UK. Saying that, he does broadcast on BBC America, and does get millions of views on youtube
@@TheLastApostle true. But i think it might be worth mentioning graham if we want to come up with actual solutions to improve american talk shows. Graham Norton is probably the only major talk show that has stayed consistently fresh. Also many notable american celebrities vouch for its brilliance.
Im glad someone mentioned graham.
@@TheLastApostle sounds a little condescending, don't you think? I live in the country where we only have BBC news and even we get Graham Norton. He isn't some obscure figure of British culture. My guess he chose the most relevant to American Culture.
Great video, I enjoyed it a lot, but when I read the title I honestly didn’t expect most of the video to be talking well about many late night shows lol
I'm basically the same age as Eddy and my introduction to late night was The Colbert Report and Jon Stewart's Daily Show, and slightly later Conan when he moved to TBS (had never heard of him before that point for whatever reason). Basically getting raised with shows that were extremely meta and riffing on things I had never seen, pretty weird.

Craig Ferguson was literally the definition of a real interview. Every interview he straight up ripped his cards and just went with the flow and didn’t give a shit about the rules.
it's sad what happened to the late late show, corden is more lowest common denominator shit like every other late night guy.
Very true.
Craig was genuinely nice, funny, and clearly grateful to have his gig, not some entitled, sanctimonious brat, as is the case with Meyers, Colbert, and Kimmel.
@@Gunners_Mate_Guns
I wouldn't put Meyers in the same category as the other two. He's a little more of a showman than he maybe should be, but he doesn't come off as completely self-centered and full of himself as Colbert and Kimmel do.
Craig was nothing.
I was a bigger fan of Geoff.
The free chicken was pretty good though!!
Not sure if that is the actual definition. Maybe it is precisely because it is not an interview that you like him so much.
I was in the studio audience of both Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert, and it was awesome! I loved when they came out before taping to talk to the audience, and during commercial breaks they took questions and just bantered and it was lovely. It's clear they are both talented comedians and good at their jobs. This was before COVID so idk how it is now but the energy in the room was amazing
Graham Norton here in the UK is gold it's camp, its just fun, it's always a group of celebs
when conan's sitting, he looks short. When he's standing, you realize he's actually hella tall.
Long legs, short torso 😂
Conan once said on Colber that he has really long legs and the torso of a 12 year old girl because of his 100% Irish heritage.
6'4"
@@doctorhandsome back in the day 6'6. Age shrinks ya unfortunately. Im currently 6'5 and will probably go down to 6'3 by the end of my life
@@jebaited9612 still a foot taller than me 🥲
Tell your child, who trusts you implicitly, that you ate all of their Halloween candy
Yes. Teach them not to trust care givers from an early age
Haha yes, I love manipulating kids into a long lasting state of paranoia and encouraging them to be untrustworthy of their own parents. Its great.
hey...
go avs.
If your parents playing a silly joke on you where they temporarily hid your halloween candy and told you that they ate it has scarred you for life and affected your ability to trust caregivers, then your parents raised a bitch.
MacKinnon is a top 5 Player in the league
That nap vs sleep bit was worse than even the worst moments of the Office (British)
I agree. Conan is the best! I have fond memories watching his late show in the 90s with my father and sister during the summer months. To this day I’ve never seen my father laugh at such ridiculous stuff. Conan has a special place in my heart.
When Craig Ferguson was on, he was up there with Conan.
Cameron Wilson Craig Ferguson was my all time favorite host. There was a period of time towards the end of his run that he was phoning it in a bit, but that picked up once he knew the show was coming to a close
Craig is the best late night host of all time.
He was fucking better than conan, Craig Ferguson was the best at genuinely having conversations with celebrities. His monologues sometimes where tearfull inspirations (the britney spears drinking one comes to mind)
Yes! The only late night host I gave a fuck about.
After he left and went on XM he was great for a little while, but then just went full bore political. Like an insane level of "everything is someone else's fault" political. He would also constantly push that he was vegan. I loved him on TV for years, but sheesh.
_"Jimmy, I am going to take a nap."_
Jimmy: "Why take a nap? Just go to sleep."
...
Why have a snack when you could just eat?
"Yes, that's what nap means."
Y’all really didn’t get that? Oh well I did it’s really simple actually
Weirdly, I understood his question, but he pressed about it so much it was cringy.
Squilliam Fancyson maybe it’s just me but it had no real effect cause Louis response Made me chuckle... like there was nothing wrong with what he said
THANK U FOR THIS!!!! I dont even like talk shows but I love conan so much 👏👏
Conan has never not made me laugh from deep in my gut. He brought his experience from SNL to make amazing skits that pushed a lot of boundaries on tv. And his podcast is so damned funny. You can really hear relief from a lot of the guests that they're not in some awkward interview and can really be closer to themselves. The international show was also hilarious. Great video!
“This video would be like an hour if I covered all the late night shows”
Ahhhhh... if only....
Maybe if it’s successful enough, he’ll do a part two. 🤔
Drew Gooden type beat
I can't hear you over all the laughter going on at the Graham Norton Show
Nobody overseas knows who that is. Hes not big enough to be known outside of his country
Matt Petty You keep saying that. I love Norton and I’m American. A lot of good American actors go on his show, so I don’t see why he wouldn’t be known over here.
@@TheLastApostle He's very popular here in New Zealand and judging by the views on CZcams, in America too.
Matt Petty Me and most of my family friends watch Graham Norton and we're Canadian lmao. You ain't special lol.
Matt Petty Graham Norton is on every week in Australia. I really think it’s just the US that don’t watch him. I don’t know if Americans would really appreciate his sense of humour really
Conan skit at the Korean spa was one of the few times where I had to pause the video to catch my breath because I was laughing too hard
