i can't believe i'm sitting through this for something MK-related that most likely won't be anything new...
 
Well, that right there is why I try not to watch Lopez tonight. You wait for the part that interests you, and nothing happens. I'm pretty sure the show is being canned for Conan o'Brian too. If so, I'm glad because you don't wave a MK bone in front of the fans and expect to them give you a mercy.
 
Good call on not watching it. If you want to know what it was like, just push a spoon through one of your eye sockets. That's about how I felt.

On the bright side, you didn't have to watch Jimmy Fallon :D

Although I think it may be inevitable for him to invite Boon because of the buzz MK created this year at E3.

I'd rather watch Fallon easily, he's not terrible and has a proper demographic for gamers. He's also on late enough not to cause a stir with game footage. ;)

Good call on the lateness factor. I know some people watch him for the occasional gaming exclusive bit, but I just can't stomach his comedy and wit or lack thereof.

I just miss Coco :/
 
Personally, I really like the George Lopez show, his sitcom. But as a late night host...not really. I stayed up to watch him when I was still sorta jetlagged and he didn't even show me anything for it...
