With Jimmy Fallon taking over Jay Leno's Tonight Show spot, Meyers will take his former spot as host of Late Night. Seth Meyers is the head writer of SNL and the sole Weekend Update anchor. SNL Executive Producer Lorne Michaels will serve that same role for both Fallon and Meyers. _________________

If it's anything like his stand-up, I'll enjoy it.
I'm excited for him. _________________

Maybe Meyers won't have to laugh at his own jokes like Fallon does. _________________

I want to like Seth, I really do, but Weekend Update makes me cringe. Really unfunny, except the occasional good character.
But most late night shows are horribly unfunny until the guests come on anyway, hopefully he's better than Leno or Letterman. _________________

I actually like this idea, he does well with big name people which I think is the most important thing, his dynamic with Michelle Obama kind of convinced me, unlike Conan who I dont think could handle interviewing like the president or something.
Seth Meyers should be good on Late night, basically Weekend update are kind of like monologues anyway. _________________

I'm disappointed to see him go. I thought he was one of the funniest ones on the show. Of course I'm sure he will either guest host next year like Wiig did or come back for a cameo like Sandberg did in less than a year after they left.
I'm not a big Meyers fan but I don't dislike him. I'll tune in to see what the show is like and to see if it will interest me. _________________

Conan is a Harvard graduate and much, much MUCH smarter than Fallon could ever dream to be.
That is not even close to true.
Conan does have goofier humor, but he is capable of being serious and is incredibly articulate. _________________

LOL, being smarter has nothing to do with it, I dont even want to point this out because its so easy but, people graduate from Ivy league schools every year, they cant all host talk shows.
If you just watch the interviews Fallon clearly does better with big name people...and I dont even mean being serious, like the Michelle Obama interview I mentioned, it was silly, fun, and covered some actual politics.......thats what I mean, he just plain handles big name guests better.
All these threads get so black and white, "this guy sucks!"/"This guy is awesome!", Im actually a Conan fan and watch most nights, I dont get how you can watch those shows and say Conan is 3X as smart, haha(even if it is true in their personal lives) _________________

So you ridicule me for saying Conan is smarter when you have nothing but YOUR opinion to backup that Fallon handles big name guests better?
At least there is some factual reasoning behind me thinking Conan is smarter. Obviously, its not full on proof, but there is legitimate reason for thinking that a Harvard grad is smarter than a guy who never finished college.
There is absolutely nothing but opinion to say Fallon handles big names better, and thats something I completely disagree with. Fallon constantly trips over his own words and laughs at his own jokes. I cant stand anything about his show. If you like it...I respect that...but as for handling big name guest better? 110% disagreed. _________________
