Jay Leno makes me sick...What a whore

[fujiyama]

God I heard that interview with Laura Bush. What a suck up. Didn't he have Dennis Miller on the other night?

What's with him and RW repukes every night? God I thought the Arnold whoring was bad.

I can't wait until he's off the air. Conan is definetely a lot funnier than Leno. Fuck Leno. He seems like such a smarmy slimy guy. My guess is he's a bit of an ass hole in real life as well.

1. Is it because David letterman is a dem that they passed him over?

Conan doesn't seem very conservative, so I don't get it.

[Cronus Protagonist]

12. He has heart problems, remember and...

I also think he had a spat with NBC before and might not be even receptive to the idea. I made that up, so TIFWIW.

18. Remember when Letterman was still at NBC...

GE had just taken over the network, & Letterman walked over to the GE building to bring the CEO (forgot his name) a basket of fruit. They wouldn't let him in & treated him as if he were a "terrorist", lol. This was around the time that Michael Moore's "Roger & Me" came out.

Letterman was more of a rebel back then.

2. Well

I live kinda near him, and I run into him every now and then. He's very pleasant and friendly.

His politics suck though, and his show is turning more into a RW shill-a-thon every night.

[fujiyama]

3. I guess I'm a bit surprised

but I suppose he's good at playing to his audience.

The reason I would have guessed he's an ass is because of the way he got his job in the first place. He seems like a back stabbing type of jerk. I guess I shouldn't be surprised with his politics. After all he works for GE.

4. Leno claims he's not a republican

I don't think he's said he's a liberal or democrat either. hmm...

[murielm99]

5. He was friendly with the Clintons.

Maybe that is why he says that.

[951]

6. Who did he interview?

Edit: fujiyama didnt mention it was laura bush in his original post

[fujiyama]

16. Sorry about that

Just edited to let people know who he had on.

[ghostsofgiants]

7. ...

(Insert Bill Hicks' bit about Leno here.)

[tinanator]

13. I would if I could remember it...

"Me and Saddam, we're like this"

RIP Bill.

8. All politics aside, he's just not funny.

And it's even worse because he doesn't seem to have realized it yet.

[ghostsofgiants]

9. Everyone else has realized it though.

H sucks. Very much.

[goclark]

11. I agree, not funny at all to me

And when he went all out for Arnold, I was through.

10. What inteview? With whom? nt

14. The key to Leno's jokes: "You're soo dumb and I'm smart"

That's it. Once you've heard him do that once or twice, it gets old. His "humor" is all at the expense of others. I wish Johnny would have stayed on. Leno is just a dumb-ass playground bully - a typical Republican, in fact.

"So I don't worry about, and people shouldn't
worry about a draft. . . I think we're in good
shape, I really do. And, if not, we'll -- I'll address
the nation. But I don't see any need to right now."

[blueblitzkrieg]

15. Anyone hear his response to Laura talking about Bush's faces during debate

He said something like, "Well, Bush can still make faces because he doesn't have all that botox."

Wow, hilarious. Two words for Jay: FUCK. YOU. Three more: Your show sucks.

[Scurrilous]

19. "When you don't have botox, you can actually move your face."

http://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=politicsNews&storyID=6434291

<snip>

"Asked by Leno about the president's scowling facial expressions during his first debate with Kerry, Mrs. Bush said she had not noticed it too much while watching the event up close as part of the live audience.

"You know I didn't see that. I was on the very front row, and in person that didn't really show up that much," she said. "But I think he said this morning that anyone who listened to his opponent say that many things about him would have to make a face."

Leno quickly joked, "When you don't have botox, you can actually move your face."

[bluedonkey]

23. Laura didn't seem too pleased

with her husband after the debate.

Careful Leno,Laura looks like she a few injections herself.That's why the 'plasctic face'.

[LaPera]

21. Don't watch. Why put yourself through this shit? The fact sspeak volumes..

This will happen over and over...Leno completely sucks! HE'S WORKING FOR THE LARGEST WEAPONS MAKERS IN THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD...GE!!!

HIT TOM DeLAY HARD>>>THIS EVIL FUCK DESERVES ALL OUR RATH AND MORE...

[jpgray]

22. Leno was a good standup comic

I don't think he's done very well as Tonight Show host.

[gavodotcom]

24. Leno, Letterman, O'Brien--it's all shit.

I have better things to do than sit around and hear people tell 'fascinating' stories about themselves while telling me to buy their CD, go to their movie, or watch them on TV. Charlie Rose is on at 11 p.m. here, so I guess it makes me more than biased.

The very idea of these late night shows is repugnant.

I'm a grouch, sorry.

[rman]

25. yeah, but not all shit is created equal

some of it is RW shit, some of it is LW shit.

And is is relevant because late night shows are a major source of 'information' for a large part of the population.

[porphyrian]

26. Talk shows are just an extended commercial.

Most of the guests are merely there to pimp their latest product, and the rest is just meant to keep viewers distracted so that they don't change the channel. Throw out your television - it's all shit.

[Disturbed]

27. pimp their latest product

Exactly. Stopped watching these type of shows a few years ago. Lame humor and pimpin'.

[Jeff in Cincinnati]

28. Leno stopped being funny about twenty years ago...

He's on the glidepath to the Old Comics Home.
