+1 on this. I like Andy, but we don't need to hear him laugh over the mic.
It was a good first show, though I couldn't make it through two minutes of Will Ferrell's shtick. If tonight is any indication of what's to come, it should essentially be the same show that was on at 11:30, but with better guests and stronger writers (Conan's 11:30 monologue was always short and weak imo).
With Conan leading into his show, I tried giving Jimmy Fallon a second shot, but I didn't even make it to his second joke. He looks like a robot out there, he's not particularly funny, and the writing is so horrendous that it makes Carson Daly seem tolerable. The worst part of it all, though, is that Jimmy can't even read off the cue cards; when he's reading them, he's clearly not looking into the camera, and I find it incredibly distracting that he's looking off screen so damn much. I always thought Jimmy was a funny guy, and he seemed extremely normal and nice the few times I've heard him interviewed, but he couldn't be any worse at this late night thing.
