This week, Jim Gaffigan chatted with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show and gave a pretty great preview of his fantastic (we’ve been playing the our press copy on repeat since we got it) new hour special Obsessed, premiering this Sun. on Comedy Central at 10PM. Really, Gaffigan simply did a nice chunk of his act in conversation, which left Fallon slapping his desk laughing throughout the whole thing pretty much.

Watch parts one and two now.

Respected news anchor Brian Williams has had clips of him chopped up and reassembled into rap songs for years by Jimmy Fallon and his staff such as this rendition of Snoop Dogg’s Gin and Juice.

Brian Williams continues to not only be a respected name in news, but one of the late night guests in the late night talk show game.

It doesn’t matter what the name of the show is, Bill Cosby is still going to mess with Jimmy Fallon with bungee jumping, tight rope walking, and Fallon’s impression of him.

As Jimmy Fallon loves games and Billy Eichner was a guest last night on The Tonight Show, it was the perfect opportunity for Jimmy to do a Tonight Show version of Billy on the Street.

Thus, they did Billy in the Audience, complete with all the running and screaming you’ve come to know and love. Don’t forget that season 3 of Billy on the Street premieres tonight on Fuse at 11PM.

Sure, the premiere of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon garnered big ratings and U2 played on a roof, but there’s nothing like a friendly time slot jab from Stephen Colbert.

Watch this whole bit where Fallon is collecting on celebrities that bet against him being host of The Tonight Show including Tina Fey, Seth Rogen, and more, then see what Colbert does at the end.

And That Was The Last Week of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno

Here’s a recap of one of the most momentous 5 days in late night over the last week with the official handing off of The Tonight Show from Jay Leno to Jimmy Fallon including what all the competition was up to, even the one joke Conan made about the whole deal.

Jay Leno on Leaving ‘The Tonight Show’ Twice on 60 Minutes

Jay Leno and his wife Mavis sat down with 60 Minutes recently and chatted about his second departure from The Tonight Show, largely giving his final word about both transitions and that he’s OK with it. He also claims, in regards to what he’ll do post-Tonight Show, that he is done as a late night talk show host.

It’s a fascinating watch at this moment in time where the late night talk show batons are being handed back at NBC.

Amy Poehler To Be Fallon’s Last Guest, Meyers’ First Guest on “Late Night”

Whether a link between eras of comedy at SNL between Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers or just one of the funniest people around, it’s a smart move, in our opinion to have Amy Poehler be the guest to send off Fallon to The Tonight Show and welcome Meyers to Late Night.

Seth Meyers Might Have a More Streamlined Version of ‘Late Night’

If you’ve seen Seth Meyers in his tenure at SNL, you can make an educated guess that his taking over Late Night will be more than a little different than Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

According to Meyers in a recent interview, there will be less music and more sketches, which seems to be the new streamlined version of the late night talk show format that networks have been going for (The Pete Holmes Show, Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell, Nikki and Sara Live).

You’re probably curious as we are to see where Late Night with Seth Meyers will fit in with “@midnight” & Pete Holmes Show just ending along with Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on,

Jimmy Fallon Doing Best of Late Night Special Before Going to The Tonight Show

On Jan. 5th at 9PM, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon will air a special 2 hour “best of” episode chronicling all they’ve done over the last 5 years before Jimmy Fallon takes on his new gig as host of The Tonight Show after The Olympics.

We’d hope this will include all the bits with fake arms or we might think about calling shenanigans.

‘Late Night with Seth Meyers’ Has Staffed Up

With the likes of humorous folks such as Alex Baze, Alison Agosti, John Lutz, and more, we’re starting to have a good feeling about the transition of NBC’s Late Night from Jimmy Fallon to Seth Meyers.

We can’t wait to see what they come up with Post Olympics.

John Goodman, Paul Rudd, Jimmy Fallon/Justin Timberlake to Host Saturday Night Live in December

All we’re saying is that these are three upcoming episodes of Saturday Night Live set for December are ones you might want to plan to watch.

While that did happen, Fallon also announced that Nate, after his last appearance on the show, signed a sitcom development deal with NBC. So, congratulations to Nate on that and let’s all hope that NBC has this go to series soon.

Watch the set and deal announcement here.

A.D. Miles Set As Head Writer Of ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’

In only a few months, Jimmy Fallon is taking the reins to The Tonight Show and it looks like, as you’d expect, he’s taking his whole team with him, head writer A.D. Miles and The Roots included.

Considering they’re staying in NYC, how much different will The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon be from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon really?
