Can we all agree that Conan is still the best late night host?

Agreed, Conan is great. Why doesn't he get as many viewers as other talk show hosts?

He's my favorite and has been for years. Something about his type of comedy just gets me you know.

Jimmy Kimmel is also funny, especially when he's making fun of Matt Damon.

James Corden has the best format in my opinion though.

Currently airing, easily. Letterman was his superior though.

Conan is and always has been the best. His remote in Korea made me laugh.

Only when he's without his writers

Graham Norton would like a word...

Plying his guests with alcohol and flipping people off chairs. Absolutely based.

Best of all currently airing hosts? sure no doubt about it
Of all time? sadly no Craig trumps everybody out
He doesn't need rehearsal,alcohol or celebrities for the show to be funny
>>
Conan's the only one who seems like a human being.
>>
I can agree to that. He makes some cringy jokes, but for the most part I find him very likable. Hell, most late-night show hosts make the odd cringy joke. Plus, he's really fucking smart, which I respect a lot.
>>
He honestly seems like he's the most at ease talking to guests and really good at on the spot stuff

I'm sorry anon, but he doesn't conduct his interviews in american so I never know what's going on.

Conan is one of the most based people ever. He's humble, smart and extremely funny.

That being said, I would rather watch him do something else than host a talk show.
>>
>>68268596
It's just a massive piss up so there's no need to anon
>>
>>68268619
Fuck your mum?
>>
>>68257765
Sure. But that isn't saying much. The talk show format is tired and dated, and he doesn't have a whole lot of competition. Seth Meyers and Colbert are talented, but the talk show formula is inherently bad. Fallon is a god awful moron whose career was over until he learned the formula for making Buzzfeed-tier viral videos. Kimmel is okay.

I would appreciate a good stepfather. So yes.

You also articulate your opinion like an 11 year old. Care to be more specific?

I'm not an 11 year old girl anymore though.
My point is, it's such edgeless, RANDOM XD silly humor, I don't understand why people like him so much.

>I'm not an 11 year old girl anymore though.
Yes, I was saying you really suck dick at trying to articulate your thoughts.

Only the edgeless part I get since he rarely deals with politics or controversial subjects.

What do you mean by "random silly humor"? Isn't all humor meant to be silly?
>>
I don't live in the US so I don't watch his shows, but I went through a phase of watching all his Jordan Schlansky videos and just remote videos in general and I fucking love him.

>>68269066

He's incredibly quick witted and he's great when he's just improving.

Yes OP and it's a shame he doesn't get as much recognition as he should do, especially compared to other TV hosts like jimmy fallon and his annoying fake laugh.

I still think Conan is the best host, but TBS Conan feels like only a shadow of NBC Late Night Conan. I miss Max, Joel, Stack, McCann, and all the side characters they played.
>>
>>68257960

I like James Corden. He lets his guests talk and it's always a good time. Conan rehearses his shit beforehand and everything he says sounds like a setup for a joke.

his interviews suck. he should have a show but it shouldn't be a talk show

Right now there's no competition. Conan or bust

Yes, but the branding and execution of his show are poor. Titling the show "Conan" and branding his hair was juvenile.

this is definitely hack but Letterman and Ferguson did this non-stop too. Amy Schumer did a whole skit about it which I'm pretty sure was aimed these people. That's why Seth Meyers is pretty refreshing: he's like an asexual eunuch with women guests.
>>
>>68257765
Yes, but that's not saying much because the others are absolute trash.
His monologues are awful, they always go for the cheapest dumbest "jokes", never funny.
Everything else from the bits to the interviews are very hit or miss.
He only really shines when he's out and about interacting with random people or with employees/interns.
