I thought maybe it was just me, maybe I wasn't seeing something in 'slow jam the news' that was hilariously funny. But then he sucked up to Trump during the campaign in 2016 and I didn't give a fuck any more. Fuck him.
Jimmy Fallon is all that awkwardness of Nathan Fielder minus the intent or semblence of humor. He is the most boring, lame host I have ever seen on a show like this and I find him painful to watch.
Hence his prime spot. That’s why he’s famous. He’s milquetoast, he’s lowest common denominator, he’s white bread, he’s Big Bang Theory, hes Two and a Half Men, he’s a laugh track, he’s Jay Leno.
I haven't asked everyone I know or anything but I've yet to meet someone who I know likes Jimmy Fallon.
I think he's way, way, WAYYY worse than Leno, though. At least he leads a somewhat interesting life (albeit not interesting to me). Like I would be surprised to hear that Jimmy Fallon has any hobbies.
I don’t know anyone who likes big bang theory. But it’s the most popular show (or at least it was at some point). But there are sort of…layers/circles in which different types of people remain. The “Big Bang Theory” types hang out together, talk on Facebook, still use Reddit and mainly just subscribe to r/aww and r/funny, they go out to eat at the olive garden after church…that type of thing. Then there are the non-BBT types, that find a suitable instance on Lemmy and discuss how it’s possible people like jimmy fallon lol
I know somebody who loves the big bang theory. Legitimately. Small town conservative guy. I don't have much good to say about him.
