The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Debuts!

Oh yes, oh yes! It's time! It's time for the long-expected, mega-post about The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon! This is one of the biggest events of 2014 and not just on the blog. I can think of no better time than right now. Right now, exactly one month (and one day) since the new digs premiered. It's certainly been a fun ride, but I will just be covering the last week of Late Night to the first week of The Tonight Show, then it's back to regularly shared Jimmy posts. Let's begin!

Jimmy's last week on Late Night was from February 3 to February 7. The first three days featured the Best of Comedy, Music, and Digital Originals. February 6 had Colin Farrell, Chris Pratt, and 2 Chainz. Friday was straight fire, though, with Andy Samberg and The Muppets. Plus, Higgins visited the guest chair and they talked about their favorite moments throughout Late Night. Here is the killer final clip from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon that I just simply adore.

Must watch:


Then, in the week between the end of Late Night and the start of The Tonight Show, Jimmy had a couple of interviews with Jay Leno joining him.

I'm not a monster, so I will not be outright including the fifth History of Rap, Brian Williams rapping, the interview with Harry Styles, Ew! with Michelle Obama and Will Ferrell, U2's two performances, the History of Hip Hop Dancing, and the return of the Ragtime Gals, all from the first week. Well, at least not included in this post.

I would also like to talk about how I've been liking it. Well, I haven't been liking it. You know, I miss Late Night. You can definitely tell it's different.

LOL just kidding it's AMAZING, probably BETTER, because Jimmy is flawless. It has immediately become one of my must-watch shows. Jimmy's earnest, "nice guy," funny, personable, charming, talented demeanor is perfect for The Tonight Show. He is the new face of late night television. The Roots provide a somewhat musical tone for the show and Higgins balances the music out with, of course, comedy. And Jimmy is just the best of both worlds. I cannot wait for the next twenty to thirty years of pure fun, pure enjoyment, and just an all around good time with a great show. Keep doing you, Jimmy!
