Slow Jam the News

To the critics and haters out there – leave Jimmy Fallon alone !

It’s only been 1 night and this new gig is undoubtedly his biggest undertaking ever.

For those who may not know, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon debuted last night on NBC. He’s got a really good list of guests lined up for this first week, names ranging from DeNiro, Timberlake, Van Morrison, Tina Fey, and Luda. Oh, let’s not forget his house band…The Roots !!!

Speaking of The Roots (who, by the way, was voted one of the world’s greatest live bands of all time), here is a sketch from last night’s show that featured Fallon and The Roots putting a musical twist on the news of the day.

If you saw the show, I’d love to hear your impression thus far.
