This is a hypothetical.... but if you could see (or hear) ANY of your favorite late night hosts in a RiffTrax, which would it be??

I don't think any of them is more capable than Jimmy Kimmel. Conan seems obvious from his Simpsons days, but I just can't see him in this setting.

Why are Chevy Chase, Alan Thicke, Pat Sajack, Magic Johnson, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Arsenio Hall (you know, that black Carson) not on the list? ;)

Conan O'Brien is the way to go.. he's been a comedy writer for freaking ever.

Makes me wonder what Alan Havey is up to right now?  Anyone remember "Night After Night"?

I just want to see Carson Daly (the other, wrong Carson) sit at 0%

Conan is personable, funny, and used to high pressure and off-the-cuff situations ... His commencement address at Harvard a few years back was a work of art.  *mwah* (kisses fingertips)

The combined whiteness may be blinding though.  I say this as an SPF 50 guy myself.  Well, rifftrax is audio anyway... :)

Jimmy would be my second choice.

I just heard Jimmy on Stern a couple days and he was fresh on my mind. You're right about Conan, and he DOES seem pretty quick on his feet but also a little schticky. Jimmy seems a little less uptight and more free-wheeling.

Pick Jimmy as long as you want to hear endless stories about his time on The Man Show and what a great lay Sarah Silverman in...

wait a tick...  :o

I think Magic Johnson was on one of the Rifftrax... he just didn't say anything for 95 minutes.  Chevy Chase might have been on that one, too.

I DID pick Jimmy but I could just as easily have gone with Conan. The geography is also in Jimmy's favor.

Jimmy could be the gateway to luring Joel (Kimmel show writer) back in...

Yes, I live in an unrealistic fairy land ... I'm going to go sit on a gumdrop and gaze upon Raspberry Falls now.

I hear Conan can't ride on planes because he so HUGE anyway.

Joel is gone, man...

Admitting you have a problem is the first step towords recovery..

It would be a dream come true to hear a rifftrax with Mike and Conan.......that would be amazing....

Suprisingly enough no one has voted for Carson Daily.

Conan has my vote.

Ha! I can't imagine why.

"Uh... this... this scene is, you know... bad!"

Conan for the win, Tom. He's got quite the quick wit about him, I tells ya!

Road_Element

Im totally for Conan. I just dont find Jimmy Kimmel or Carson Daily that funny.

mrbasehart

If I had to pick from those, it would be Conan.  I'm English but his commentaries on the Simpsons are very funny.  What about the mighty Stephen Colbert?
