Conan was an SNL/Simpsons writer with basically NO TV experience going into his hosting career....so not only was it more understandable for him to be nervous and to suck at interviewing, but it was arguably excusable.

Jimmy Fallon was on SNL for many years. He also hosted SNL's Weekend Update...which is basically like a talk show. He was nervous and quirky on that too....so I dunno. It may just be his "style" that we are seeing.

Personally though, I do not think he will improve to the extent that Conan did. However, if he finds a niche good for him. The first step in my opinion is to cut out all this gadget stuff....I feel like his show is a commercial for Palm or Apple.
