To most of us, it may seem like Jay Leno is old hat at this late night hosting business, but several months removed from being propped up in his chair as host of “The Tonight Show” have probably left him a bit rusty in regards to his longtime gig.  Leno will most likely be leaning on a script tonight in his return to the role that made him a household name. Luckily, we here at National Lampoon had the good fortune to stumble upon a copy of the document that …

Craig Ferguson, the best late night host on television, celebrated his 1000th show. Now, if you’ve ever seen Craig and his seemingly improvised monologues and his tendency to show a young man in leather dancing, you should be surprised he made it past ten episodes. But The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is a bonafide hit. He gets better ratings than Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel and now he’s made it to 1000 episodes.
Most hosts spend this monumental episode with famous movie star guests. Not Craig Ferguson. No, he …

Murder= My childhood crush on Zach Morris and my early 20′s crush on Jimmy Fallon. Suicide= Both Gosselaar and Fallon’s careers.
Jimmy Fallon had Mark-Paul Gosselaar on as “Zach Morris”, the character he played on the hit 90′s TV show “Saved By The Bell”. The only parallel I can muster up to describe this atrocity, is the sadness and hope I feel for our US economy. As with the economy, I’m just so sad that both Jimmy and Mark-Paul have fallen to such depths, and I truly hope, with the whole …

Zack Morris dropped that sham acting gig as Mark-Paul Gosselaar and went back to being himself last night on the Jimmy Fallon show. Why Zack would choose to announce this to that laugh-murdering, bore-hound Jimmy Fallon is beyond me, but it’s nice to see him drop that “I’m and adult!” act and do what he does best–give sneaky monologues to an invisible audience!
Apparently, Zack–with gigantic cell phone in tow–is aiming to get the “Saved By The Bell” gang back together for a reunion show. It is very rare …

It’s a 4 minute video of Jimmy Fallon getting laser eye surgery. I don’t know how else to explain it.
Something may be really wrong with me but I just can’t get enough of this. If there were a television channel dedicated to showing nothing but Jimmy Fallon getting eye surgery 24 hours a day — “The Jimmy Fallon Surgery Channel” — I would watch it. I dare say I would pay a reasonable subscription fee for such a service. I don’t know why, but yea, like the sirens of old, …

So the first of the online segments of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon went up and…well…that’s pretty much the end of the story. Nothing happened. He said that he’s the new host (which we knew) and that The Roots are the new house band (which is awesome, but we knew) and that’s it. What the hell? Maybe I was mistaken but I thought there were going to be jokes. That wasn’t supposed to sound sarcastic. I really thought there was going to be some type of a thing-one-could-watch. The whole …

Jimmy Fallon’s new website just went live, and there is a tab where you can ask him questions, and he’ll hopefully answer them in his video blogs.  I know I have a few questions for him…
I’m curious to see what he’s made of…Right now I feel like that creepy audience member with my arms folded saying, “make me laugh”, but you know what? He does have a lot to prove in my book. We shall see!
Here is his new website, ask all the questions you want: http://www.latenightwithjimmyfallon.com/

The Roots have been hired to be Jimmy Fallon’s new talk show house band. That is very bittersweet for me because I’m a fan of The Roots, and now they’ve just become a house band? I suppose it’s a steady gig, and they’ll still get to perform together for 15 seconds at a time as they play to bring on guests, but I feel like they’ve completely sold out.
To me, The Roots have always had the “real factor” going for them, and they’ve just mainstreamed themselves. My friends and I …
