NBC’s Late Night With Jimmy Fallon
(Monday, Mar. 2, 2009)
Jimmy is feeling nauseous about tonight. But do we want him to boot all over his first guest Justin Timberlake? He wouldn’t dare. Not in the historic NBC Studio 6B — the former stomping grounds of Mr. Johnny Carson. ‘Course, besides the classic velvet curtain in soothe-me blue, Jimmy’s done a bit of redecorating since Carson’s day. First, his house band? No, not just saxophone-playing geezer. Dude, he’s got The Roots. Also, he’s installed these risers up above the nose-bleeds, so all the lookers in the audience can shake it, all American Bandstand-style. Plus, to prove that he’s hip to the interactive stuff, Jimmy’s requested that they carve a hole in his desk to fit a computer screen, so that he may Facebook/Twitter/Skype with us all night long. In this week alone, Jimmy will kick it with Robert De Niro, Chace Crawford, Van Morrison and his old “Weekend Update” crony, Tina Fey. After tonight, we just may forget the name of that tall redhead that once lurked the hour. (12:35 AM ET/PT)
LAST FRIDAY’S DO-IT: OMG, 75 photographs of Robert Pattinson!
