Dave, your points are all valid, but Fallon still has a lot of pull with the ideal demo for the 12:30 timeslot - males 18-24. They'll have followed him from SNL and his lame standup. (Then again, compared to Dane Cook, Fallon's standup is like Bill Cosby circa 1980, or 1983 Eddie Murphy.)
Here's my question - how much growth has Ferguson seen since Conan handed over to Fallon?
