In lieu of the Olympics taking over NBC and no Jimmy, it is a great opportunity to show the amazing efforts of Jim-boy and the luge.
Even though this was taped at the beginning of December its spirit still stands today as an image on NBC's main page for the Olympics. This was also brought up in a recent conversation with Brian Williams on the show. Williams proved how in control and respected Jimmy is to his production staff and others because during the segment he was mostly taped from the waist up in the luge spankie.
And now I present... or NBC does... and Jimmy.... Lugging From the Streets.

Eps 197: Your voice is so low and cool, here have some helium.
Where am I? LATE.. not the time of day or part of the title of Jimmy's show, but the name of the latest mini-series. The series premiere was almost identical to the show "Lost". Everything to moving music, Jeff and Jane = Jack and Kate... someones legs getting stuck, someone (Higgins) not breathing and the elevator blowing up. Oh and this is based on the true story of how a group of people survive a horrible elevator crash onto the mysterious 10th floor. duhn duhn.
But before the premiere, Jimmy needed some time to write his thank you cards for the week. "thank you Olympic rings for showing fruit loops what they are capable of becoming if they really apply themselves." Also in the line-up was figure skating for being like if hockey came out of the closet, and to John Mayer in his Playboy article for finally putting the rummer that he is an ass to rest, NOT.
The rest of the show consisted of guests inhaling helium.... well, because its cool, if Jimmy's doing it then why don't we all. I came to the conclusion that Selena Gomez sounds like Fran from The Nanny.
And now ladies and gentlemen... or just the one person that reads it, 60 miraculous words to sum up a little circus called Late Night with Jimmy Fallon... Wolfman Benicio Del Toro is surprisingly funny, "Hey double trouble, wanna ride" with helium assisting. Selena Gomez can finally say she is on an Emmy winning show... and her new single with The Scene isn't kiddie bop anymore. Super bowl champ Reggie Bush and "entrepreneur" Kim Kardashian are just awkward, but more so with inhaling helium and easy targets for the press.

Eps 195: Fiece finger skating and product placement
Continuing late night's recognition of the winter Olympics, Jimmy introduced the sport of finger skating. Three audience member's routines included such moves as the flying Jackson and the bearded snow leopard.
But that was not all of the pre-interview fun. Jimmy's own product placement preacher popped in and gave an marvelous sermon on the importance of the $5 foot long at subway. Can I get a hallelujah!?!?!?
Just Sixty... Legendary talkshow host and writer for Carson, Dick Cavett reminicises the day a guest health expert dropped dead on his show. Project Runway star and designer Christian Siriano proves what hot mess, tranny mess has done for code talking, oh and how it relates to the day he designed an outfit for Lady Gaga's today show appearence. Then alternative band Yeasayer.

Eps 193: Wrestling with Stephen Colbert and the olympics
Drinking beer lessens the effects of osteoporosis according to a part of the monologue. I guess this is a selling point to college student's parents, maybe we will be the healthiest generation minus the immense smoking habits. Going along with fads, "Late" - a spoof of "Lost" was previewed. The first episode will air on Friday, proving that elevators are not safe and never get off on the 10th floor.
The upcoming winter Olympics were a big part of the show, from the snow bobbing event to Colbert's followers recent adoption of the US speed skating team. Bobbing for medals in a pool of snowballs just meets the classification for honoring this worldwide event. Congrats Jim, and Colbert is a comedic genius and a classy guy that stepped up when a dutch bank slipped out as the speed skating team's sponsor.
Late Night also recognized the Tea Party Convention in Tenn. over the weekend with Tea Party Karaoke. Audience members recited words of speakers at the convention to a tune, they really know how to pick out the most ridiculous ones. end of subject.
Now highlights in 60 words... Glamour magazine results, Do Jimmy- Dump Conan- Marry Colbert, means women would cheat on Colbert with Jimmy because hes "totes hot". Jimmy and Colbert wrestle in elevators. Willie Garson, Jobless in the US? Go to Bogota, Columbia? Wine and a french accent make the show better in cooking segment with Eric Ripert. Jimmy stores his house phone in the toaster oven.
