Episode 52

FIFTY- TWO!

MONOLOGUE: Cino de Hangover day! Hope you all had a good one. The Tina Fey improv with Steve Higgins was great. Old timey voices are my favorite and Higgins does a great job with them. Do you believe the video of the guy throwing himself a hail mary? I believe it. Dude! You’re getting Adele! That is if you like her music and want her new album. 

Completely agree with Jimmy’s assessment of Coldplay. They are a band that have evolved over the years and have gotten more and more complicated. Just look at their records, each one has a specific tone and style and it’s amazing.

PROS AND CONS: Having a Devil Baby in honor of the new show debuting on NBC this Sunday, but it have been a slow news week for them to make fun of themselves. I love A.D. Miles, and one of the biggest reasons why, is that, you look at him and you would have no clue he’s the head writer for the Tonight Show. A Brilliantly funny dude.  Pros and Cons: Having a Devil Baby

EW is back with a very hairy Seth Rogen. Not one of my favorite bits, but it is the second time they’ve done it on the Tonight Show; the first being with the first lady Michelle Obama. When did Zac Efron get so ripped? I must say, anything that uses the song TURN DOWN FOR WHAT, I get fired up."Ew!" with Seth Rogen and Zac Efron

GUESTS: Seth Rogen’s laugh is infectious. Fun to find out, he flew in to New York to do a four second bit on Jimmy’s first show.* Seth Rogen laughs way too much. He’s too jolly. We’ve also learned in this interview, he’s an incredible artist… Seth Rogen Sketches a James Franco Portrait

Matt Bomer, I have never heard of, or ever seen. Yet, he’s on the cover of every magazine apparently.

MUSICAL GUEST: COLDPLAY!! I love this band. I’ve seen them once live, in Dallas, during the Mylo Xyloto tour, and it was quite the experience. Lasers, balloons, confetti, and those awesome LED bracelets that were timed to the music. Based on their SNL staging and here on the Tonight Show, I can only imagine every arena they play in will have hanging stars that light up. “Magic” is slowly growing on me, but for their first hit off the album, I’m not that big a fan. Also, going back to the Mylo tour, that band went nuts with the glow paint and the graffiti. It’s nice to see a much tamer Coldplay, where they all look normal.

BONUS COLDPLAY!!!  I actually think this is a better song than Magic. “Always in my Head” http://www.nbc.com/the-tonight-show/segments/5456
