Somewhere at NBC there is an executive wondering why they didn't promote Carson Daly to 12:30.

Fallon's debut as the new host of Late Night was as bad as everyone expected. Actually...it may have been worse than expected. Throughout the show's 60 minute run we saw Fallon bomb with his monologue, ask audience members to lick un-funny objects for $10, conduct an ackward interview with Robert De Niro, and introduce the world to Space Train. It says it all when the show's highlight was a clip from MTV's The Phone.

Somewhere across the street, Craig Ferguson, has a smile on his face.

Thanks for the review. What did other viewers think of Jimmy Fallon's debut?

After watching 10 minutes of it, the man has a face for Radio, makes one wonder if he left SNL or was asked to leave. His excuse to leave SNL to pursue Movies somehow doesn't seem plausible, unless his Dancing with a soft drink in New York was a Feature Film, that escaped me!

One more thing, Manny, why did you post this as an Opinion, when everyone knows Fallons Sucks as an entertainer, cause that is a Fact!
