Eps 221, 222: Gervais and clashing of the titans

Thursday started out with a hilarious new app for the iPhone that sneezes like Adam Sandler, who is one of my many favorite comedians. Then showed the new one called "Jersey Shore Yourself" where you can make yourself look like a member of the Jersey Shore. He introduced others, but they were not as funny.

Put it in Reverse, which is the new game where competing/acting in scenes backwards then playing it forward successfully and the best makes you the winner. It actually turned out really good considering that the players are not actors, or have any experience with it.

Ricky Gervais only watches his own show, other than the crazy reality shows here in the states like the Real Housewives of New York. Ricky also showed a clip of his animated series on HBO of conversations between him and his buds called "The Ricky Gervais Show".

Anthony Mackie was in the awarding winning "Hurt Locker" and is currently on Broadway in "A Behanding in Spokane" He also likes to do impersonations of Tracey Morgan and loves the New Orleans Saints.

Country singer Easton Corbin ended the show with his first #1 song, "I'm a little more country than that".

Friday:
Weekly thank you card writing was the intro to the episode Thursday. Many included, Ricky Martin for obviously coming out of the closet, and apparently she bangs, she bangs - everyone except for him (this was not called for, I love Ricky). Also he thanked the 40ish year-old man who is also named Justin Bieber, who will have to explain who he is the rest of his life.

Jimmy then wanted to add in his thoughts a new upcoming movie.


Sam Worthington, who was in the blockbuster "Avatar", was on the show to promote the new remake "Clash of the Titans". He talked about being an Aussie, and using his experience working with CGI on Avatar to help him with the new movie.

Editor and chief of engaget.com, Joshua Topolsky, came onto the show with an iPad to show us all why we need to get one, and the best things about it. For example it has a user interface, meaning that it is exactly like an iTouch or iPhone. It also takes away the need for a Kindle, and every other device you have right now. And it only starts at $500 for 16GB of storage and can go up to just over $829 with 3G.

Liquid Liquid performed.

Eps 212: Ted Danson and Battle of no-name instant bands

Happy Friday.. ITS Weekly thanks you card writing time and these are my favorites:
-vegan food, tasting like microwave paper towels and healthy alternative
-leaf blowers, making me look like that lamest ghost buster, I ain't afraid of no leaves
-this week, for being diversity week here at NBC.....
-people who insists on showing ultrasounds of their unborn child. they all look the same, like charcoal drawings of an alien

Jimmy made a second to tell us to always remember the Siena Saints, who lost to Purdue, because it is good to remember the team that you have never heard of due to the hundreds of schools with less than 3,500 students.

Now playing: The Battle of the Instant bands. They were formed from the lines getting into the show from musicians and had about 30 min to come up with a name and song.

30 Rockin. Amnesia

Larry Bird and Champagne jam. Doin it late night


Ted Danson's interview was not that interesting. I guess it was due to not really knowing what they were talking about. But the next segment was a "boring interview with Ted Danson". I did not see any difference between the real one and the one that was staged. The only funny part was when Jimmy couldn't stop laughing

Kara DioGuardi was interesting. I did not know that she went to school to be a lawyer, then decided to me an artist and ended up writing songs for Kelly Clarkson, Gwen Stefani, Celine Dion and more chart toppers...

Air performed an interesting song in which they sad "love" in a soft voice a lot. It sounded like a baby-making some if you ask me.

Eps 207: Amy Winehouse's new clothing line, and grandma's DUI

Weekly thank you notes to: Carlos Slimm, richest man on earth for having a pimp name. receipts from best buy, for being unsuccessfully long,"eyebrows for being there, without you we would all look weird", and thank you notes to birthday cards. I have a hard time understanding where he gets all these ideas... or his writers.

Cell phone shootout again showed how much your new camera phone comes in handy, because it might win you a piano OR a $5,000 gift card to Subway like the girl from California did..

Parker Posey in the upcoming movie Happy Tears with Demi Moore, talked about her past with Jimmy, who knew that actors go over to each others parents house. We also learned that both Jimmy and his father are named Jim, and his mom and sister are both Gloria... what originality in the family.



Jenny Anny and G-butts = Jason Sudeikis's co-stars in the Bounty Hunter. I'm really excited to see this movie because I love any movie that has a SNL cast member in it. This most likely means that the writers also work in SNL also... which just means that the movie+actors is a great marriage.

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 192: Boring Columbia students and sleeping with Al Roker

Starting with Brian Williams slow jamming the news with Jimmy and the Roots about Obama's budget, the show led into Jim's week long thank you card writing time. But before thanking apple for the shaq-sized Iphone=the Ipad, boxes of chocolates, lasors and typewriters, Jimmy slow jammed with Williams about Obama's back door policy and the need for shrinkage for the $12.1 trillion debt... but dont worry all of it had to do with *politics*. Maybe Obama should thank Funyons like Jimmy did and then he would need to deal with back door policies.
Scholars from Columbia Univ. also invaded the show but needed a bost to their elbowpad and wine drinking hats imediately as they started talking...



Now 60 exciting words plus an added 15 just because.... Traveling to Haiti Brian Williams slept with Al Roker in a tent on the airport tarmack proving his devotion to our country and journalism. Williams travels with backup ipods, favors Pauly-D, and confesses he lacks a back tattoo. Amanda Seyfried was honored to be with Channing Tatum in NC for two months... with his shirt off. *tear*. Comedian Sean Patton likes to passout instead of standing up for a fight, oh and hes from New Orleans.
