Jimmy Fallon...how the hell did he get the job? I never understood that one. I’ve tried and tried, but if that is comedy, I just don’t get comedy.

Stephen Colbert…instant change of the channel, politics and comedy are supposed to be funny…he just drones.

Jimmy Kimmel, I can deal with him for a bit, then all I think is how much I miss Letterman, then even Carson.

The it all goes back to Fallon, he sucks…Adam Sandler needed to be there.

Or am I too old that I think Bill Maher kills it.

Yeah Fallon isn’t all that funny. Colbert and Stewart have always been my favorites. Coincidentally just started working for Fallon a few times a month.

It's all turned into morning talk radio.

I'm surprised they haven't added a laugh track to prod people into laughing, 'cuz "funny just happened".

I thought Craig Kilborn was much better than Jon Stewart.

Stewart was like a 90's comedian that waited too long after a joke fell flat, forcing the audience to laugh, so they could move onto the next unfunnies.

Loved the show the first few seasons but grew tired of it when Stewart took over.

Comedy central era Colbert was pretty great. Can't stand him now.
Colbert was funny when he was doing Strangers with Candy and some very early Daily Show stuff.

When he ended up getting more political his anger would be seeping through though, and it's hard to laugh at someone when there's an underlying current of rage.

Jon Stewart on the other hand was political and funny.
