The Tonight and Late Shows

tonightshowI have always tried to catch as many episodes of Leno on the Tonight show, Conan on Late night, and Jon Stewart on the Daily show. Unlike any show produced in Australia, they manage to encompas jokes on the News, Politics and Society..  Jokes that are actually funny sometimes.. Something I’m definately not going to find on Good News Week.

I’m not really into the media and “fanboy” status, if you will, I was expecting to read a post like this on someone elses’ blog but they seem to be lost in Cyberspace.

Recently NBC who owns the Tonight Show and the Latenight Show have made switches to the hosts of the shows. The Latenight show was the first to loose Conan O’Brien, to be replaced by Jimmy Fallon.. I haven’t really watched any of the new Latenight shows with Fallon, but I haven’t heard many good things about him.

Last week was Leno’s last show on the Tonight show, he has been replaced by Conan O’Brien, who did his first episode early this week. I really liked the new image, intro elements and set.. all very polished and pretty.

Some time in September Leno starts a new show on primetime.. will be interesting to see that come out.
