    Maybe but they are written for him (as are Leno's) but Leno is a much funnier guy. Headlines never fails to make me laugh. They are not even in the same league as Cobert or Maher though.

    Headlines is good, Celebrity Survey is better.

    They are both good at what they do but i do think conan is a lot funnier. Leno's tonight show focused more on the monalogue rather than the sketches or desk bits after which i think are way funnier than the monologue (as in conan's late night show).
    I also find leno seems to be more scripted wheras conan will often do or say things that are obviously less scripted and more mad
