I think Fallon's days are somewhat numbered....

Jimmy Fallon draws lowest ‘Tonight’ audience rating

The comedian averaged the smallest television audience ever for an original episode, according to early Nielsen ratings – pulling in 947,000 total viewers on Monday night.

His ratings are dropping and unlikely to come back up. I don't find him particularly funny but it is a shame to see this because basically he has refused to jump on the mock Trump 24/7 style of humor that Colbert does.

Fallon actually attempts to be funny and entertaining outside of Trump bashing. When Trump fades, I don't what these other guys will joke about.

I think people used to watch him because he was apolitical like Leno was.

I think Seinfeld said something about how hard it is to be funny today

It would probably be shortsighted to fire someone during the pandemic

When you alternate half your potential audience the way the late night people have, what do you expect?

In 10 years all late night comedy will still be focused on Trump. That is all

Are there ANY late night hosts that haven't become political pundits? I miss Leno, he definitely ribbed politicians, but

Fallon still attempts light hearted political humor. Colbert is lecturing you.
