I prefer Leno, but it'll all be academic in five years, won't it? I think, given the resources of the tonight show, and gearing his act towards that audience, Conan will probably do an okay job.
Who Do You Like Better Jay Leno or Conan O'Brien???

If NBC was smart they would have lured Jon Stewart away from Comedy Central

Conan is funnier on a regualr day but nothing is funnier than Jay Leno's $0.99 Christmas. Did anyone see it last year? The Chiness Jump Lope? (no spelling error there) I couldn't stop laughing and telling people about it.

Conan kicks ass, however he won't be able to go out as far on the edge as he does now.
The buzz is that John Stewart may take over Letterman's spot.

I absolutely love Jay Leno's comedy. Once Conan O'brien takes over, I may never watch again. His comedy is just awful; aaahhhhgggg, and that stupid dog! Yikes!!!
David Letterman I just watch when the 'Top Ten' list is about to come on. His comedy is just awful as well as Conan's.
Yeap, once Leno is off the air, my late night comedy watching is over. I'll have to find something else to watch those late Friday and Saturday nights.

I think Grahmn Norton is funnier than all of them. I used to watch him on BBC America and now on Comedy Central.
But between Conan and Leno, I like Conan better. His comedy is a little more offbeat and a bit edgier. Reminds me a bit of the old David Letterman, who, even today I like more than Leno. Leno seems so tame and "safe". It seems so rehearsed. It's like the guests are scripting the interviews for Leno. Leno was a lot better when he was a standup.

I like all of them . The variety is so contrasting . Jon stewart I wish would stay right where he is because you know he will likely drop his political satire if he hits the main stream and that is his bread and butter , the anti Rush Limbaugh LOL . I can agree that Dave Letterman who I used to worship in the 80's has lost his edge tho but hey he's an old man now who doesn't want to offend anyone let alone the hollywood types and politicians . I like paul shafer and the band ....
