Is Jimmy Fallon Cute? Or Rabidly Obnoxious?

Or both? No, serious question. On Saturday Night Live, he was just that goofy nerdy guy with the half-decent smile. But now that he's all grown up with his own television show to himself and a wardrobe budget that includes better tailored and flashier suits, Mr. Fallon is suddenly … reasonably attractive. But then he opens his mouth to deliver one-liners during the monologue, and his hot factor shrivels up.

I go with Rabidly Obnoxious. Just like almost everyone from SNL (Still Not Laughing).

Just lame would fit him, and, how tacky and uncouth to have a photograph taken with a hunk of gum showing.

Totally disagree. On SNL he was adorable. Now that he's been "Leno-ed" he looks…meh. Kinda reminds me of Jeremy Piven's smarmy agent character on Entourage (or his real life equivalents).

Obnoxious. And Jimmy, you have your own show now…time to learn what a comb is.

I had a crush on him in his SNL days, and he's still plenty cute. But, oh boy, his monologue delivery is downright painful. How on earth did he get this job?!

I'm with Oneway. I do enjoy his show because he isn't afraid to step away from the regular late night fodder, but he needs to learn a little something about timing and not laughing at your own jokes. It was endearing once a week on SNL, but not five days a week. All in all, he is adorkable.

he is super cute we he shuts his mouth and doesn't obviously steal conan's mannerisms. He is the most unfunny host in my memory.

OBNOXIOUS. Toxically OBNOXIOUS. Thorougly OBNOXIOUS. Fatally OBNOXIOUS. Feloniously OBNOXIOUS. So OBNOXIOUS that it causes the bowels to spontaneously loosen.

Fallon is nothing more than Dane Cook 2.0 (the worst possible insult).

The only funny thing is watching the NBC PR team trying to make Fallon out to be the king of the college crowd and "new media" market.
The guy has zero talent.

i just wonder why he seems determined to follow the traditional talk-show format so closely. he should change it up to suit his brand of funny.

and he really needs to take a class on how to make eye contact. so shifty-looking!

For some reason I have never liked Jimmy Fallon. I've never thought he was very funny, even on SNL. I watched one episode of his talk show. I didn't enjoy, although he could grow as a host if he applied himself. I just never understood why he got branded "JIMMY FALLON: COMIC". He could be an actor. But I just don't think he's funny enough or has a point-of-view to be a comic.

I always kinda liked him…even though on SNL he seemed unable to ever go a whole sketch without flubbing his lines…I just don't think he or his new show are funny…or even fun. Maybe he'll mellow out and find his own shtick.

He used to be cute, but only in 45-second doses. Now he's not quite obnoxious, just very. Very. Unfunny.

I always sorta thought of him as a guy that was meant to be cute but something went just slightly off enough to mess it up. Kind of like buying "seconds", you know a crooked seam, or the plate is just missed being perfectly round.

He was okay — okay — on SNL (and that probably had more to do with Tina Fey than himself)… but he absolutely SUCKS as a host of the late night show. Totally FUBAR. There's no fixing that shit.

I don't even know if it's worth it. How many hours of late night talk show can NBC have? Now that Jay Leno's going to have the 10pm slot every night, what's the freaking point of the Late Night show? Conan was the only night show talky guy worth listening to (love the Daily Show, but I find that I just watch the clips now… not a tv person really, but Conan was a freaking fixture in my life during college).
