Remember when Jimmy Fallon tried to normalize Trump?

Look how that ended for him. Fallon hasn't drawn viewers like he use to since. NBC always has a knack for shooting themselves in the foot. They screwed David Letterman, they screwed Conan O'Brien. NBC deserves what they are about to get.

1. Phil Donahue, Keith Olbermann, Ed Schultz... n/t

[live love laugh]

2. I hardly watch Fallon now. Plus: remember how they tried to normalize Megyn Kelly. Epic fail(s).nt

3. NBC ran "The Apprentice "

farce for how many years with Donny the serial bankruptcy failure pretending to be the all-knowing, successful business wizard who knows who's "got what it takes"? Hey, if people will believe that garbage they'll believe anything--like the absurdity that he's ever been Presidential material.

4. Fallon is a fail...

I've ignored him since day 1

5. It was dumb and disgusting

6. Jimmy Fallon is a very talented guy.

For whatever reason, his late night show just doesn't do it for me. It never has.

I've wondered if he is somehow constrained by the bigwigs from doing the show the way he wants.

7. I believe so

His late show was so much better. Like Conan was. I think mainly because they want the tonight show to be boring due to demographics. Late nite was more for the younger kids and it was a free for all have fun

8. Very talented and very shallow

I don't watch him much but he has a ridiculous exaggerated laugh for his guests and I find him very superficial and hard to stomach.

But much more talented than me.

I did hear that he was quite destabilized by the universal condemnation of his handling of Trump and started to drink heavily.
