It's Official!
Filed under: TV News > Jimmy Fallon
Jimmy Fallon is taking over for Conan O'Brien next year on Late Night, when the ginger-haired comedian replaces Jay Leno on The Tonight Show.
The Saturday Night Live alum should easily appeal to the college dudes that watch O'Brien, but…
Will he bring in new viewers????
Unlikely!
And, where does this all leave Carson Daly????

I's amazing that there was not ONE negative comment on the piece that asked you to rate Perez' new hairdo. WTF???!! Perez is definetly censoring the bad comments on this site!! SHAME ON YOU PEREZ!!! btw…your new "do" is a "don't"!!!
I wonder if that song from "A night at the roxbury" will be his opening song… afterall, its from his only hit movie..
Carson is a tool! Leave him at TRL.
It leaves that shietous Carson Daly where he belongs .. NOWHERE! He's pathetic and not funny anyway. What a waste of tv airtime. SCREW HIM and his fingernail polish!

I never watched Conan but I'd stay up late for Jimmy!!! He's way funnier! And hot!
cool…I kinda like him…
one of my favorite movies EVER is Fever Pitch and I LOVED him in that movie, so I'LL WATCH!
i dont really like conan but i LOVE jimmy! ill watch it now as a new viewer. yay!
11th
ohhh he will bring lots of new viewers! i will def be one. gah! sooo hot!
Re: Lyzz – Uh… Jimmy Fallon was not in that movie.
Terri Schiavo on a bad day was much funnier than Carson Daly is at his best…
I like Carson Daly, actually, but maybe they just wanted to keep the humor the same? I think that Carson's too jaded and sarcastic. He approaches everything so negatively, which is what I like, but I'm pretty sure most of the American population doesn't. He's not exactly a bright, goofy presence like Conan.
I don't like Jimmy, but his manic style is so similar to Conan's, I'm almost positive that they just wanted to make the change as painless for the viewers as possible.
I wouldn't watch it, he's funny but not that appealing outside of SNL.
Obama has taken over the lead in every count, when will Perez concede?
Carson Daly blows! Jimmy Fallon does too, just not as much… Either way, "Late Night" is taking a step back here. Oh and I hope Leno's writers are fired
Carson Daly…are you serious….he is not a comedian, a hyped up radio host…..For a late night talk sho, it is typically a comedian that makes the cut. Everyone in Hollywodd, with 1/16th of a brain knows that….come on Pigez, I knew you were stupid, but come on already. The only reason you mentioned Carson is because he like to let you suck his anus and mentions your name…cuz he is a fellow ass sucker….Jimmy will rock it out and MAny…will tune in to watch his charm and wit take over late night…
Re: Lyzz – FYI
"A Night at the Roxbury" is not one of Jimmy Fallon's movies that was Chris Kattan. They were both on Saturday Night Live, maybe thats where you got confused.
he is hot…too bad he is married…
Re: Lyzz – he wasnt in that movie. and who cares if he had a hit movie anyway? he was on snl and that is like the highest level of acting in my opinion.
jay shouldnt be replaced!!!
Re: Farty McDugal – LOL! I couldn't agree more!
Carson WHO?
Am I the only one who just can't stand Conan? In order to be a successful, long-term, late night talkshow host you need to remember one thing: THE GUEST COMES FIRST. Conan is so wrapped up tino getting the laugh, he'll do or say anything to get there. It's all about him. The franchise is practically dead anyway…
Here's one extra viewer that Conan did not have - I will stay up to watch Jimmy! Hey Jimmy, please do some of your music and impersonations, because they are the BEST.
YOU DOG SMELLING MOTHER FUCKERS ARE THE SICKEST PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD. I COME TO THE SITE JUST TO READ THE RACIST ASS COMMENTS BEING PASSED AROUND. THERE ISN'T MUCH YOU GUYS CAN SAY ABOUT BLACKS EXCEPT THEY'RE LOUD AND GHETTO……BUT YOU GUYS YUCK……….HOW COULD GOD HAVE CREATED SUCH THINGS; YOU FUCK YOUR OWN FAMILY MEMBERS; WTF.; HOLD THEM HOSTAGE FOR YEARS AT A TIME; EAT OTHER PEOPLES BODY PARTS; ENSLAVE OTHER HUMAN BEINGS; INVADE COUNTRIES AND RAPE AND TORTURE THEIR WOMEN AND KIDS.; CORRUPT YOUR OWN COUNTRY; DRINKING AND DRIVING WHILE PREGNANT;YOU SMELL LIKE WET DOGS; MOSTS OF YOUR FATHERS FUCKED U BY THE TIME YOU WERE 5.; GOD HAS NO RESPECT FOR THIS RACE; HOW COULD HE; I REALLY THINK THIS RACE WAS MADE BY THE DEVIL AND NOT GOD…………U WILL NEVER SEE ANOTHER RACE LIKE THIS; I SWEAR I HATE WHITE PEOPLE
He is so not funny, thye couldhave found a better comedian!!
Conan never appealed to me, but Jimmy Fallon does. I will definitely tune in to give him a shot!
They should keep Conan O'Brien where he is and bring back Arsenio Hall and hire him as host of the Tonight Show. Then the circle is complete and the Justice of the Unicorn is preserved. Remember, Arsenio on Fox was the main reason Johnny Carson had to go and Leno got picked up. Besides, Conan isn't funny and Fallon is more shotgun than driver.
I think Jay Leno is scamming us. He will never give up the tonight show as long as the ratings are good and he is making money. I don't look for him to leave the show.
fallon is not funny.
I will definitely be watching Jimmy!!!! I adore him. Can't stand Conan.. he is a boob. I'll miss Jay Leno. I think Jimmy is gonna knock it out of the park.
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
GO JIMMY!!!
he looks into cameras all the time while he's telling a lame joke anyway, might as well be behind a desk. nbc you're a bunch of retards.
I love Jimmy Fallon as a comic actor - loved fever pitch - but when he sub'd for David Letterman he sucked out loud as a late nite host.
Taking Jay off is going to cost NBC lots of money. For one thing my Tivor season pas is done the day that ugly red head steps on the stage. he onl;y appeals to young males. I hope NBC goes bankrupt
Fallon is an idiot. The show will fail with him involved,
Carson Daly reminds me of the doughy frat boys I used to kick the shit out of in college. The 10 yr olds that watched MTV ten years ago and made this guy a "star" are no mature enought to see that he IS nothing more than a doughy frat boy.
who gives a FUCK about nasty ass carson daily?! This ain't "I Love The 90's"!He looks like a google eyed broom stick w/ AIDS!
Jimmy Fallon is just NOT funny.
Never did like him.
Tries too hard, and doesn't pull it off.
NOT FUNNY
THe show is doomed.
That's a shame. Good for Conan but bad for anyone that may have tuned into the show after he splits. This guy isn't funny. He was pathetic on snl and his movies sucked. Geez, who's going to lead the band… Horatio Sands? I won't be tuning in. Carson Daily is horrible, too.
Re: WHITE PEOPLE ARE STUPID REDNECK FUCKS WHO GETS FUCKED BY THEIR FATHERS WHILE THEIR MOTHERS WATCH – U R sooo lame, I could say alot more about blacks than that, such as: they smell like shit, they hair so greasy U could use it 2 grease the wheels, they steal, they smoke crack, and so on. But I won't cuz I LOVE black people! Oh that reminds me of a joke….
-Why do black people always have sex on they mind?
-cuz they have pubic hair on they head! LOL
Jimmy Fallon sucks.
carson sould get back w/ Tara Reid, they iz both loser hasbeens that would make momentarily hot children that would also become ugly hasbeens like they parents. I can't say enough bad thingz about Mr.HIV carson daily, I hate him so much I keep the "c" in his cheap name lower case. I hope he gets beaten & eaten 2 death by monkeys, or I hope he drowns in paint, or I hope he gets injected w/ gasoline! I ♥ Ya Perez! See U in the showers @ the YMCA Perez!
Re: Lyzz – Think before you speak. Jimmy Fallon was in Fever Pitch with Drew Barrymore and he was AMAZING on SNL. Also in Knocked Up. I can't wait to see him on the Tonight Show.
He is not funny. The show will fail.
I don't like him he is stupid no original ideas. The whole song paradies were Adam Sandlers SNL thing not his
WHOA!!! EASY THERE TIGER! MAKE SOME SWEEPING STATEMENTS WHY DONTCHA!!!! WHILST I AM ONLY HALF WHITE AND AGREE WITH SOME OF YOUR COMMENTS YOU ARE COMING OVER ALL MAD AND IDIOTIC!! NOT TO MENTION RACIST YOURSELF. YOU NEED TO CALM THE FUCK DOWN AND MAKE YOUR COMMENTS IN A DIGNIFIED AND EDUCATED WAY.
I HATE TO BREAK IT TO YOU BUT GOD HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHETHER BLACKS OR WHITES OR ASIANS ARE RAPING THEIR KIDS OR EATING EACH OTHER. THERE IS NO GOD AND ANY EDUCATED INTELLIGENT PERSON KNOWS THAT. THERE ARE DANGEROUS AND VILE PEOPLE IN EVERY RACE - YOU THINK BLACKS DON'T SEXUALLY ABUSE???? WHAT ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO OPRAH AND MANY, MANY MORE?
FURTHERMORE, YOUR COMMENTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORY!
I totally disagress Perez - I love Jimmy Falon and I think that he is very funny and I will totally watch! Go Jimmy!
i'll stay up to watch Jimmy..that way i'll go to sleep dreaming about him
Re: WHITE PEOPLE ARE STUPID REDNECK FUCKS WHO GETS FUCKED BY THEIR FATHERS WHILE THEIR MOTHERS WATCH –
Um Perez - can't you ban this guy or something…I'm so sick of him bashing people like this - nobody is bothering him.
Fuck Carson Daly… When I'm up late enough that his show is actually on, I turn it to the juicer commercials for some REAL entertainment. Falan is awesome.
I dont think Fallon is funny at all. He seems akward at times, constantly sweating cause of his nervouness. I hate to say this, but it's not going to work, the ratings will plummet fast. He has not done anything funny in ages, gives the job to a female, why does it always have to be a late nite male host. Jimmy will not work for this.
I like Jimmaaaay,,,give ti a break…I am going to tune in to him!
he'll be too busy talking about himself to make anything really interesting happen on the show.
And, where does this all leave Carson Daly????
Somewhere to grow out his freakishly large head.
What a terrible move. Talentless and not funny whatsoever.
No WAY! Jimmy has the personality of wet paint drying! Just because he was good actor in a few movies DOES NOT mean he could hold daily intelligent comedy banter with celebrities.!!!! WRONG CHOICE! I would not want carson either! we need NEW late night talent! I like conan but he is not going to translate well with the overall late night viewers in the one hour earlier time-slot. 2 different demographics that watch his show vs. the tonight show. it's gonna be all fucked up when Leno leaves ……
It's bad enough we're getting Conan to replace Jay but surely to mercy he's not dragging that lame band he's got with him….Max Weinberg and the Max Weinberg 7….omg…. no no no….please no.
Why don't they just cut to the chase and put Fallon on the Tonight Show? He's the only funny one anyway!
I sure as hell won't be watching Jimmy Fallon. I am NOT a fan.
Does anyone still like him anymore? I hope it gets canceled after the first week, like the Chevy Chase show. NBC is making a big mistake.
ofcourse he will bring in new viewers!!! he fucking rules!!!
and hes hot as hell!!
loves it!
more!
He laughs at his own jokes, makes terrible movies, and does not deserve to even fart in O'briens chair. He will suck as a host and I hope he fails miserably!
Are you kidding? Jimmy Fallon is one of the funniest guys out there and he is cute! He will attract a great crowd!
Re: Lyzz – He wasn't in that movie you douche! Your thinking of Chris Kattan…aka Mango.
id rather watch infomercials than daly.
jimmy fallon is not that funny, it should have been ross the intern taking over!!
good cos what has he been doing lately? it's been a while since he did that movie with Queen Latifah.
To #9 — Lizz —
Jimmy Fallon was not in the Night at the Roxbury — Chris Kattan (spelling??) was . . . learn your fax before you make comments. Jimmy Fallon is a funny comedian and will do Late Night justice.

I'll be watching Jimmy!
Who CARES where it leaves Carson Daily?? He is the reason I stopped watching MTV. Blech.
YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fuck the manorexic! I'm shocked his show is still running.
love fallon. will watch for sure.
he's funny and HOT so works for me….
JIMMY fallon is adorable and he will be amazing as a late night host…He will def bring on hip guests!!! Jimmy is very well liked in HOLLYWOODLAND as well as in the land of Rock and Roll; he is just cool that way!!!
WE LOVE YOU, JIMMY!!!
I love Jimmy. I never watched Conan but I will tune in to see Jimmy. I think he's great!
I frickin ove Jimmy!!!
jimmy fallon is hottt i will be a new viewer!!!!!!
uhhhh..carson daly? carson daly blows and everyone knows it. are you serious?
I LOVE CONAN!!! Especially when he imitates Donald Trump… I think Jimmy would be a good host, we would have to see. I don't like Carson, he is too arrogant!
Dear Jimmy, only Conan O'Brien can ever be the King of Finland, you will never be. Long live King Conan!
Re: WHITE PEOPLE ARE STUPID REDNECK FUCKS WHO GETS FUCKED BY THEIR FATHERS WHILE THEIR MOTHERS WATCH – Oh really? I guess you haven't much payed attention to what your better black race has been up to in Africa in the past 50 years or so. I think it pretty much covers every single thing you just mentioned in your list there and then some. Face it, black or white, yellow or brown, we humans are all animals.
heaven!!!!!!!!!!!
dj, are you too dumb to get conan's humor? ’cause it requires some brain cells.
wow he has never made me laugh…never
I LOVE Jimmy Fallon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
.
Carson is a no talent idiot, he's not funny,he's not charming,he's not anything, all his dumb referances to his "fans" being drunk and stoned all the time is old and not funny. he is uncomfortable to watch, I feel bad that HE is sooo bad.(but not enuff to watch his old ass)
.
.
did jimmy have to blow satan to get the gig..he is the worst!!!!!
I guess the west coast doesn't know him like the east coast does. Carson who???
As an old fogie, I'm not lying in my bed one more minute listening to Conan the bore. Give me Jimmy F. or give me Craig any old day. Bring back some of that old great humor like the 70's Saturday Night Live stuff. Now that was great.
Where does this leave Carson? right where he is, where he belongs. Don't no one wanna watch some grown ass preppy try to act like a college kid and deliver shitty jokes. He seems cool in real life, but the delivery of jokes is just ot his niche. Even if the writers were funny on his show, he'd still suck.
And the writers on that show most definitely do suck… the arabic looking dude who does the escalator segments? c'mon, shit is PAINFUL to watch. i learned what empathy meant by watching those segments.
Jimmy Fallon corpses everything he does… but he still kinda funny. Give him a year or 6, remember Conan when he first started? he was akward as hell, now he's one of the top 5 funniest people on tv. he's great!
