the one with the most liberal talking points per minute of airtime

Well the first 2 are insufferable, but I'm not sure where I'd place Colbert or Kimmel.

ayyy lmao

what does Sup Forums think of conan?

none of them

just end late night pleaseeeeeeeeeeee

...

1. Paint drying on a wall
2. Fallon
3. Kimmel
4. Malaria
5. Ebola
6. Colbert
7. AIDS
8. Islamic terrorism
9. Trevor Noah

Conan

>its an animal episode

Straight comfy

kimmel and conan are probably the funniest. it's not a great time for late night tv tho. pun maybe intended.

most seasoned vet

>Colbert
>not insufferable

He's a shit interviewer, retarded, not funny and a preachy faggot liberal.

Fallon. But that's just because everyone else is shit and he was funny when he was on Late Night, did his own thing, and was not so full of himself.

In a vacuum, removed from political talking points, I find Stephen Colbert can be the most spontaneous and quick-witted. He has a much greater understanding of comedic timing and performance, probably because out of all of them he actually began his career as an actor and has acted outside of SNL skits.

Kimmel is alright if i had to pick

Not saying he isn't, just Fallon has a punchable face and what's his name is more insufferable

Craig.

Colbert is super cringe now or atleast when he is pushing political agenda shit which is probably coming from above. Maybe he is better when talking about other stuff.

Never found Kimmel funny or likable.

Trevor is unfunny, has zero redeeming qualities and all he does is race bait and say stupid shit.

Haven't watched the other guy lately.

>Colbert
>quick-witted

Have you watched the show? nigger. He's not quick-witted at all and when he tries to be, he just comes off as cockhead. He's so painfully unfunny and retarded, he's even slower than some of his guests.

Conan is the absolute best when he is doing remotes. In studio I would say Kimmel is best. The rest are just... not my thing.

He was good.

The fat writer with the french name, he seems to realize what made it good and is trying to do it again.

Swing for the fences on character humor.

>Conan starts talking about race
>it ether cuts to
>his bassist's inner thoughts and is good
>deon cole being another black comedian

Who is that guy that seemingly took over for Stewart? I just want to punch his face when he starts ranting in his obnoxious accent.

I don't know and I don't care. I just wish someone would follow in Tom Snyder's steps and forego the whole trying to be funny thing and just give some damn good interviews.

THE LEGEND NEVER DIES

...

I really dislike that man.

...

I miss him

>that rumor he confirmed on air that he was going to leave the show, but do a similar 1/2 hour syndicated one in a pre prime time slot
>he does a shit game show, and some history channel thing, but not what he said he would do

I wouldn't be mad if he didn't say he would. Him and the Geoff Peterson guy should at least do a radio show. It was nice seeing actual people.

Have no knowledge of any of them apart from James Corden but I can already tell you he's the worst

t. Britbong

every clip of him on youtube about how he flirts with female guests or their boobs, fucking creep

kimmel is quickwitted at times but he comes off as high and mighty where he needs to be the underdog

fallon is a talented guy but is just in the wrong business, he should be the guest not the host

didn't ever watch colbert or the other guy

conan is usually good to great

Out of those, it's Kimmel by far, but Conan is better and none of them are actually worth watching

oh no a grown man flirts with grown women
how horrible of him
flirting with people is creepy and unnatural behavior

>fucking creep

Into the trash you go, faggot. Try Tubmlr, dumb cunt.

that's the lowest form of hook for any audience, yeah sex sells we get it

>fucking creep
The guy is a gentleman. Only thing that would lead you to think otherwise are the clickbait "Craig Ferguson pickup masterclass" video titles.

>he flirts with female guests

That's why he's so great you pleb

>every clip of him on youtube about how he flirts with female guests or their boobs, fucking creep

>have guest that isn't charismatic, but attractive
>turn the discussion to the one thing she's good at

Best thing about him was his relationships. Guests that were good to talk to would come back, even when they didn't have stuff to promote. It seemed less of a commercial in between commercials.

this is good. i can see why Craig had the homage episodes.

I miss Letterman.

...

I agree, I find Craig pretty fucking ugly. I do not get the appeal, but the fems seem to like him? I guess if you have a stupid accent that sounds like dog shit then looks don't matter

his friendship with Kristen Bell was fun, she was on the show like 30 fucking times lmao

Then he went on a trip with Rashida Jones and Mila Kunis and shit, what a fucking gig

He was also total bros with like, Hugh Laurie and Ewan McGregor and Robin Williams

real good genuine person to host a talk show, what a novel concept

What a punchable face

They're all terrible and American humour isn't funny when it's delivered like this.

how do you think his teeth got that way

...

Sucks donkey balls. Always has.
>personal friends with carrot top (calls him unironically national treasure), cedric the entertainer, katie couric, tom arnold
He's stupid
>thinks weed is legal in Switzerland because he watched the wire
>read tiny bit of Kierkegaard and thinks he's hot shit
>repetitive, lame, unimaginative
Remind you of anyone? We got a pic of paul McCartney?
>makes fun of donald trump since forever
>more of a bleeding heart liberal than colbert, stewart, john oliver and trevor noah combined
Revisionist fags with humongous nostalgia goggles love him just because of the hot bitches and his horny interviews

He brought Michael Clarke Duncan to Scotland too.
>he joked about how where the Duncan family came from in Scotland

When he went to France he had Jean Reno.

I think he's been friends with Peter Capaldi for 30 years or so.

It was weird how Bell stopped going on the show for the last few seasons.

>mfw it's a Stephen Wright is the second guest episode

...

colbert is a piece of shit human being and its wild that it took this unfunny garbage fire of a late night show for me to realize it. letterman is rolling in his grave.

Brit here, I always through that the first and fourth ones on this pic were the same person

she stopped going on the show cause I think she was doing Victoria Mars shit and also she was having a baby

He's also friends with that qt girls from the Alaska airplane show, idk how or why, I guess since they're both pilots

but god damn she's like 20 or something lmao

>A nigger and a jew

That abomination needs to be gassed.

*2nd and 4th, I meant

IT'S CURRENT YEAR GUYS, COME ON!

Samantha bee is actually the funniest even though I disagree with a lot of her positions. I love the way she stands in heels though, bitch looks like she's taking dick from behind and loving it. hnnnng

>SHIT TIER
Jimmy Fallon
Jay Leno

>WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING STOP IT TIER
Seth Meyers

Get off Sup Forums Conan.

Literally who are these people?

There both named Jimmy, but the beard is to hide his double chin.

It's funny, because he started his career by doing a lot of jokes about alcohol, while the other has always had a clean act, but he's repeatedly self harmed himself by drinking too much.

>James Corden
Please keep him over there, thanks a bunch

>Trevor Noah
>Not really that shit

He is almost as bad as pic related.
He is super shit-tier my friend.

Seth Meyers is legitimately the worst late night host in history. Worse than Leno. Worse than Chevy Chase. Worse than Magic Johnson. The liberal bogeyman that seemed so cartoonishly over-the-top is real and he's hosting the worst talk show I've ever seen. No charisma. No jokes.

None.

Late night television is cancerous to comedy. Always has been.

TOP THREE ALL TIME TALK SHOW HOST RANKING IN TERMS OF INTERVIEWING:

1. Dick Cavett (they rerun his stuff on this channel called Decades. If you get the channel do yourself a favor )
2. Tom Snyder
3. Craig Ferguson

TOP THREE ALL TIME TALK SHOW HOST RANKING IN TERMS OF HOW MUCH I LAUGH, SMILE, ETC. WHEN I WATCHED THEM:

1. Classic David Letterman
2. Conan O'Brien (there's been certain bumps in his career and I'd probably rate Ferguson over Conan when it comes to those bumps. But in overall terms, the only talk show guy funnier than Conan was 80's era Letterman)
3. Craig Ferguson

how the FUCK does he still have a job?

if your favorite decade of johnny carson isnt the 70s youre retarded

What I wonder is how long he will stay. He's older than Fallon, so he's never going to take that job. Have to wait for Lorne Michaels to die and see what happens.

Why did his show stop airing on friday? I thought that was strange

Ferguson, obviously. The most charismatic, well-meaning and honest man late night has ever had.

Jay was the best in my lifetime.

/thread

SNL nepotism. Also the fact that if they got rid of him SJWs would beg for a woman or a black then ratings would take a nosedive.

Jay created the JUST meme.

youtube.com/watch?v=SeC6mbV0ieU

It was a case of him just loving her show and flying her out to do an interview simply because he really liked the show.
That's what I loved about Craig, when he found passion for something he talked about it, he had a shit timeslot and a shit set in the basement of CBS and he knew the stakes were low as fuck so he just did what he wanted. He had an episode with only puppets, he had a robot skeleton co-host who for the first few months only said eight repeated expressions over and over again. When the Voice Actor for the robot was away he replaced him with random comedians and celebrities(Larry King ran the robot for a night and it was hilarious), he insulted his audience at random every other night, improvised a bunch of his monologues on the fly instead of just rote reading them like Colbert does, never promoted anyone's movies, TV shows, books, albums or films more than the four seconds he had to when he introduced the guests, pissed on the network for everything that went wrong with the show, and he had passion for what he was doing while trying to subvert the central premise of late night shows.

James Cordon was a good replacement, not because he's talented at it on the same level as Craig was or anything but because he changed the format with all the guests out at the same time to bounce off each other and sharing stories and he also seems to genuinely enjoy doing his job which makes for a fun easy to view experience.

Johnny Carson is comfy/nice personality tier but, I never found him to be a particularly funny guy (he had his moments sure) or a great interviewer so I never got the greatest talk show host of all time label that gets put on him a lot.

I think people give it to him simply for how long he lasted (30 years IS really fucking impressive) and, again, the personality.

The correct answer

>Trevor
>Almost as bad as Larry
Fuck that noise. Trevor has his moments (namely when it comes to blatant racism because it hits way too close to home for him). He's still trying out shit and some of it's sticking. He's subject to mostly SJW jokes right now, but he's slowly starting to make fun of the left too. He's miles ahead of Larry. Fuck Larry. That dude is stuck in his status quo already. What you see is what you will get until he gets cancelled.

Viewer ratings, so sponsors are lowest on Fridays. For a while Kimmel didn't do Friday shows.

He didn't really change the format. He just took the panel format Norton has popularized. I think it was a producers idea.

It isn't even really new to America. Carson would often have a comedian friend as his first guest who would stick around for an actor.

>not a single counter argument to this post
Lmao, craig dick suckers btfo.

>not liking trevor making fun of himself and africa in general
You people need to watch it more
>obama reminding him of an African dictator etc.

none of the above

Have Colbert or any of these other guys done a segment bashing Hillary once?

has there ever been a woman that he hasn't hit on on the show?
based as fuck

Tom Green. I mean, can you really beat a remote bout testicular cancer and still have it be funny? Only if ur Tom. Not sure about the recent tame stuff but still cool to watch him not be autistic.

He is (was?) so great.

Honestly I feel he's an objectively average-looking guy but after watching him for so long I'd let him go full daddy on my ass.

The black guy has no discernible personality == no comedic talent
The human laughing track is worse than Billy Connelly in the self-giggling department.
The Unmet Expectations Guy makes the other acts look sane which I guess is what his role is.
The last guy doesn't let the progressive shit he has to promote penetrate his consciousness as much as the other.

Conclusion: comedy can't be found above ground.

Conan is still the funniest, but that's like winning the special olympics at this point.

Late night shows in general are dying. The younger demographics are increasingly spending their time before bed on their phone/tablet/laptop instead of watching TV.

you know, I never watched Larry before but I had seen clips of him making a total fucking clown of himself, and that shit at the President state of the union adress

but what really set me off is how fucking ignorant and flippant and just utterly retarded he was in front of Bill Nye

I'm not saying I'm some le euphoric reddit memer or anything but fuck man, this is your guest let him fucking explain the shit you asked him about without butting your retardo jokes in

Worse yet he goaded his other two guests into speaking over Bill and sort of just say "ahurrr who cares about liquid on Mars we gotta stop TRUMP"

like fuck, what a pandering shitfest

1 off

Kek i'm defending Trevor but yeah those are great moments
>When Roy pointed out Trevor is lightskin and the degree of blackness affects how your opinion matters
>Trevor checks him by stating he's literally African

>He has a victim complex
Dude grew up in apartheid South Africa. Couldn't even be seen in public with his mother. His victim complex is warranted.
>Anti-American garbage
I was respecting your opinion until this. Fuck off to Sup Forums, they're opinions. Not evil, not good. They're there for consideration. Having an opinion is literally one of the most American thing you can have.

Fucking kids.

They're all cucks, dont know who is on the far left though

He was the most charismatic host late night host, and good at improv.

I mean every night he would just make up shit at the beginning of the show, rarely sticking to headlines and one liners, and he would make me chuckle way fucking more than any other show.

...

>funniest
>late night talk show
They are not funny, burger.

Conan

They're all better than Wilmore.
