What jumped out at me was the claim that Lorne Michaels and Jimmy Fallon
define the cutting edge of TV comedy, and that both of them are way too hip
for M-F 11:35. I guess I have always seen Leno as the definition of corney,
but Fallon is really edgy when compared to Leno then I guess I have been
seriously undestesting just how corney Leno has been on this time.
