Jimmy, we love you
29 October 2015
Wow, poor Jimmy has so many haters on here. So he's not your traditional late night talk show host. He doesn't come out, tell a few jokes and then sit there with his guests and talk the whole time. He has fun. He plays games, does funny skits, sings, dances, acts like a goof-ball....He's basically a 41 year old kid. Why shouldn't he be able to have fun? It's his show. Those bits on the Tonight Show that some call "dumb" or "childish" go viral every single week. So apparently there are a lot of people who love the show, Jimmy and the crazy things he does. Is the show perfect? No, not at all. I love Jimmy Fallon and the Tonight Show but I will admit there are improvements to be made. Some of his jokes can be a bit cheesy, it's a bit repetitive, especially when he goes into certain segments like "Hashtags" and "Thank You Notes." It's been the same way every week since Late Night and I do wish he would do something different now and then. But when Jimmy is off script, when he's just talking to his guests, laughing uncontrollably with them, when he gets caught off guard by a story he was not expecting, when he interacts with his audience, when he's telling about his latest injury or talking about his daughters who he absolutely adores, that's the Jimmy we love. He's not perfect and has never claimed to be. He's just a regular guy. That is, in my opinion, what attracts so many people to The Tonight Show. I'm not saying everyone in the world should become a fan of the show and Jimmy Fallon. It would be nice but I know it'll never happen. Just give him a break. He's a good person and a great choice for host of The Tonight Show.
