Jimmy Fallon just isn't in the same class or calibur as Leno. I have never watched any one of his shows. Ever since the very first day Fallon had started. Having the Roots as his musical Tonight Show band wasn't, however,a bad choice. Nothing compared to having Chevy Chase as the TV emcee of his own Tonight Show. Having Sheila Easton as his sidekick? Historically,those were really the worst time EVER in television history.
The late late show with James Corden is actually great because of the banter he has with the crew and band. Otherwise I mostly agree. Colbert has a few good lines from his writers now and again, but its too polished, needs some improvising.
What I liked about these Headlines was how real they were, just funny human errors, and Jay's little quips about it. But that said, why is it that nobody else, not even some TH-camr can show funny headlines anymore? I would hope Jay Leno doesn't somehow hold a all media copyright to anybody else showing real headlines and making a few jokes about it. That would be like not being able to make reaction videos because it was done by Late Night hosts as well.
Jimmy Fallon just isn't the same as Jay Leno. Sure,he can be funny and chrismatic,but he's not just not in the same class or calibur as Leno ever was. I've never had watched any of his shows on The Tonight Show nowdays. It just wouldn't be the same.
Yup. Anglo Saxons aren't getting favored in society 100% anymore. Just horrible, and totally unfair. Remember back in 1988 when 78 of General Motors top 100 executives were named Smith, Johnson, and Wilson. Just awful.
And I'm just enjoying the reruns of what Leno had done. "Headlines" and him presenting the weddings sure had been funny as heck. 😂😅😅 We're in 2024 of March.
👍. Yep. And just watching reruns of nostalgia overload of Jay Leno, David Letterman,and Conan O'Brien really being the 🌞 where it's needed. And watching them over and over again,makes me feel like being in the past. Time travelling in the past.... And ❤-ing every minute of it. Wondering where *did* the good times go,when we're having fun watching shows like that.. And remembering a time when celebrities just wanted to entertain us
@@gimbobjenkins405 for me it was the monologue. 10-15 mins of rapid-fire jokes that touched upon the days news. Thats why I preferred lenos tonight show over Conan and letterman at the time. Went to bed late every night on school days, miss those times
Used to watch Headlines every Monday on the Tonight Show and I would get a good laugh out of them. Another enjoyable one to watch was "Things We Found on Ebay" plus "Things We Found At The 99 Cent Store."

I believe he does this every Mondays back then. Always looking forward to this as well as his monologues. I always thought he is the best late night host then when it comes to monologues.

Back when the world still made sense
Headlines were the best part of the Tonight Show. I have not watched The Tonight Show since Jay Leno quit.
Yeah. Jimmy Fallon doesn't even hold a candle to Jay Leno's headlines. But to be fair, Jimmy was funny with the musical impressions segments.

Absolutely, but Jay didn’t quit. He was forced out by young idiot executives who thought they knew better.
I haven't watched ANY late night since he quit.
Oh, the days when late night comedians were actually funny
Now they angrily rant about politics. I'm not from America. Just want the jokes.

It sucks to realize how many headlines we missed out on since Jay retired.

I miss the old days carson Leno letterman men of substance who really made you laugh …… don’t think I’ll ever see those days again.
And here we are, November 5 2020, watching Headlines because the past was better than the present and the future looks dimmed.
I’m still watching in 2023….
And I'm just enjoying the reruns of what Leno had done. "Headlines" and him presenting the weddings sure had been funny as heck. 😂😅😅

I love and miss watching old shows from the past, it gives me a cheerful day.
I use to look forward to Monday nights. This stuff never gets old!!
just, thank you.. Love headlines & these are wonderful memories .. laughing to lighten lifes crapola...

I love Jay. He's got some good ones there.
Love these so much! Miss Jay and Kevin!
I used to watch Jay and then go to bed! That was always a good time and a wonderful way to end my day! I miss those times..

my favorite part is when jay laughs to himself before reading it
These compilations are almost as good as antidepressants. My face hurts from laughing so much.
Glad I'm there's people like me 😂🤣
I miss Jay! I don't laugh easily, but when I do it's Jay reading the Headlines! Thanks so much, Jay!
I always loved when he would connect two headlines together.
These bring back such good memories. My dad and I ALWAYS watched these together before he passed away 😢/😌/😣/😊/😩
me too!!!

I was born in '89 and omg, I fell asleep to Jay almost every night while in hs.
Thanks to these being uploaded to TH-cam, I can still fall asleep to Jay's voice.😴
Loved Leno. I quit late night when he left. The only good thing about these new late night fools is turning them off.
The smiling dog and the "ass chewing starts fight" are a couple of my favorites!
Good, wholesome laughs, back when the world didn't suck.
Wait, the world didn't suck in 2008? During the Recession? 😅

His laughters is contagious
Very true! But at least a few of them would no longer be able to be shown these days.
People will find a way to be offended and become outraged.
Every time I watch Jay Leno, I laugh til I cry.
What a difference a typo or wrong letter makes. Even his facial expressions are hilarious.
Jay Leno just looks like a funny guy. And he's still hilarious.
Jay Leno... Great entertainer! Great humor!
Always loved this segment. I really liked when he read the Police Blotters and did the voice for it.
Especially in Weddings. That had been funny as hell. 😅😅
I miss Jay, Kevin, Johnny, Ed, and Doc.
i also miss them. But, of that group, johnny Carson is the best.
I havent watched late night since Jay quit.
@@billdemarce1789 unfortunately, they let Jay go

Not a lot of people think about this, but doesn't Jay Leno just look like a funny guy? He's the best.

I love to see Jay laugh....he is really sharing his sense of humor with us...his reactions are as funny as the items he shows!!
I miss him so much! He was the best on late night. No one else has come close since.
Agreed. Did you he's best friends with Jerry Seinfeld?
Noone comes close.

I thought I was the only one who recorded Headlines every Monday night. One of these days I've got to put my own collection on DVD.
Yes please!!! I'd watch all of them.
Those were the days
This makes me feel better at work. His delivery was ALWAYS on point. I love Leno
He was the best .
The fact that all of these are real newspaper ads is amazing. I'm glad someone saved this because this was Jay's best tonight show piece.
When I was a little kid, I would sneak out of my bedroom after my parents went to sleep for the sole purpose of watching these headlines.
I did the same with Johnny Carson. On school nights, if there was a comedian on Johnny, I would stay up and sneak down the hall to listen and/or watch them. 😏 fun memories
Put Jay Leno back on his own nightly show again!!! It's just not the same without him. You know? Real comedy again.
He's not degenerate enough for the media companies now.
Agree 200%

Jay Leno - best late-night host
Used to make it a point to catch the monologue and headlines then go back out. Miss them days
Right!!
Lol. Me to, i always called their monologue the epilogue.
I loved the tonight show with Jay Leno followed by Conan. That was a great time to be a teenager. Golden times
I had to pause it after the "smiling dog" police report. I was crying I was laughing so hard.
breaking and entertaining ... classic !
I laughed like a crazed person. Only Jay Leno can deliver Headlines in such a way that every second words are funny
I think Johnny could have done it too. They were both part of a vanishing breed. Solid humor on everyday life. And not PC tainted.

This was on of my favorite bits of his.
My favorite.
Johnny Carson did it as well.
I miss Jay Leno
Jay puts all current late night host to shame. He could crash the ratings if he came back on at same time. Wouldn’t that be hilarious
What makes these segments work is Jay's added commentary. I laugh my ass off.

Here in late 2023, as a fan of Jay’s garage show I found this, and found it one of the funniest things I’ve seen in ages.
I made sure I was always in front of the TV set at "Headlines", time !
Jay always made me laugh.
When I was young for some reason I enjoyed when he threw the cards off his desk ... not sure why lol
Headlines always made Mondays worth looking for. I would recall some of the hilarious punchlines during the remainder of the workweek. Thanks for the laughs, Jay. I miss you, buddy!
You don't have to look for Mondays. If you get to Sunday, just be a little patient.
I usually always watch Jay Leno's Headlines before going to work. They put me in a great, wonderful, and upbeat mood. :o)
