(6,680 posts)Daily Show is a solid choice.
Fallon is a cloying twit and best to be ignored.

(3,523 posts)Too fawning, too aware, not authentic. There's a reason it hasn't had an Emmy nomination or win (only ONE win for all categories in the history of the show) for over 10 years.
If I do watch on linear, streaming or YouTube clips, I find it's Kimmel i gravitate to.

(42,435 posts)Occasionally I will watch Jimmy Fallon if he has someone I like and want to see.
If I watch Jimmy Kimmel, I can't DVR either Seth Meyers or Colbert because of the overlap in timing. (Jimmy Kimmel does that on purpose and I find it annoying.)
I don't get the Comedy Central channel so I can't see The Daily Show.
So my ranking has to be thus:
Tied for 1st: Meyers & Colbert
3rd: Fallon

(12,245 posts)With his ongoing, in-your-face feud with Pumpkin Spice Grifter, Kimmel's an easy Number One for me. Don't get me wrong, I still really like Colbert, but Kimmel wins the time slot.
