Can someone explain why his show is popular? Granted I've only seen certain interviews from it, but he comes across as such an insufferable I don't know what. What am I missing?

I'm gonna try to "steel man" this: It's a lot of dumb fun with harmless, non-political games and interviews with other celebs. He's generally likeable and has musical talent and people look like they're having fun on the show.

Honestly though, I don't like Fallon, he annoys me. However, I've had friends that used to send me lots of clips of his like with Andy Samberg and him playing this quick guessing game and I was like, "meh, it's alright I guess". My friends also like James Corden so take from that what you will.

You could have just said "the roots"

I really don't think that highly of your friends.
