I feel on the other hand that since Conan took over the Tonight Show he has lost a lot of his edge. Gone are many of the quirky bits that made his show great, such as Joel Goddard, Preparation H Raymond, the FedEx Pope, the Funhole Guy, the Interrupter, the Coked-Up Werewolf, the Masturbating Bear, Pimpbot 5000...hell, even Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, has done only one appearance since Conan moved into his earlier time slot.
The Max Weinberg 7 has toned down their style of music. They were once the best late night band - now I have to give that title to The Roots on Jimmy Fallon's show.

I totally agree. Conesy has been canned and artificial on the Tonight Show and everything I loved about his show has been absent.
Haven't watched Carson Daly, but that sounds exactly like what I always hoped for if he finally is just doing a show talking about music and chatting with artists (is that it?) instead of trying to be funny, which he really is not.
