   Joseph Nebus to All   
   More on Fallon

   	I did catch the comedy bits on Fallon's show last night and   
   they featured ... the results of merging two magazines together, and   
   a bit where they show off Fallon's enormously huge TV screen and have   
   him and an audience member pantomime to what's on screen behind them.   
   These are, of course, in no way reminiscent of If They Mated or of   
   Desk Drive, but the sense does feel, you know, familiar but not quite   
   as flavorful as Conan's.  (Of course, twisted backgrounds go back a   
   lot farther than Late Night with Conan O'Brien.)   
      
   	The sense I get is his comic sensibility is vaguely pleasant,   
   but I would like to have something I can say I wouldn't see on another   
   host's show.
