I don’t know if this is related to the late night shuffle going on at all, but last night’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon was probably the best episode he’s done to date. Maybe he’s stepping up the quality in the midst of NBC late night scares, but reasons like this might actually make me watch his show. I’ve always been fairly vocal against Fallon and his new show, but maybe a format like this is exactly what he needs to keep it fresh and entertaining apart from the other shows.
Fallon’s only guest the entire night was Ringo Starr. Yes, THAT Ringo Starr, my favorite Beatle. It’s weird, because I never hear a lot of press or publicity from Ringo, at least compared to Paul, but seeing him on the show talking about the Beatles, and even performing two of his Beatles songs on the show was spectacular. It really was a magical moment for me, and you can tell that it is for Jimmy as well considering that he’s always idolized Ringo.
Anyway, here’s the ENTIRE episode from last night’s Late Night. Make sure you at least catch Ringo’s performances if you skip around.
