HOSTS OF THE TONIGHT SHOW

Steve Allen, Jack Paar, Johnny Carson, Conan O'Brien, Jay Leno.

Here is how I rate them:

1. Johnny Carson...Funniest...brought out the best in his guests.

2. Steve Allen...Wacky...multi-talented.

3. Jack Paar...Intelligent...emotional...
good interviewer.

4. Jay Leno...Down to earth...nice guy.

5. Conan O'Brien...Like my mom always told me..."If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all!"

Watching the tonight show over the years always gave me a sense of security, like, "all's right with the world."

The Tonight Show has been there my whole life, no matter what bad things were happening in the world, or in my life. Like a faithful friend who would tell me, "It's okay, I'm here to cheer you up a bit, buddy."


Jimmy Fallon will do great! He is kind of like a combination of all the past hosts. Funny, multi-talented, intelligent, and a nice guy.

I see no evidence of Conan O'Brien in him...that's a plus!

I hope the Tonight Show goes on forever...or at least until I'm "pushin' up daisies!"
