[@zarboov88]

OMG, Jimmy needs to learn when to let the guests lead the conversation. He constantly blocked her momentum with stupid interjections. He needs to get a feel for what’s good TV-wise. Leno for example would let her lead the entire segment, only adding “really?”, laughter, and minor things that would keep her going.

[@burizaemon9305]

zarboov88 he doesn't need that..you want that, his Tonight show rating is on top, more than Leno could ever had..

[@God_of_Ramen]

Conan and letterman would wait until the momentum lessens and then do a 3 second recap. There’s lots of different methods to interviewing and jimmy isn’t very good at it. His show is better as a “clown” show like James cordon or Eric Andre.

[@b-radg916]

buri zaemon: He might be on top, but there are other reasons people might watch. The only reason I do is if there's a guest I really want to see. Otherwise, I don't find Jimmy very genuine. I liked Leno a LOT better than Fallon, and I didn't like Leno much.

[@WoodyONeal]

He’s a TERRIBLE interviewer. The WORST.
