We have all heard the saying before "All good things must come to an end". Well in this case this "good thing" lasted a very, very long time. Jay Leno has been host of The Tonight Show for about twenty years! And while Leno has been excellent, I think the vast majority of viewers are ready for a change.
A few months back NBC announced that Jimmy Fallon would be taking the torch of The Tonight Show, one of the longest running shows in history (its kind of a big deal by the way). As many already know Jimmy is a Saturday Night Live Alumni and in general a talented man. He has proved to be a great host on his current show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. His show has been doing well in ratings and staying very competitive in the late night race against other hosts such as Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Kimmel.
From singing with the President of the United States and becoming BFF's with Justin Bieber it's safe to say that Jimmy Fallon is well known in Pop Culture today. I for one am excited to see this new change in a legendary show. Jimmy is scheduled to host the first show in February 2014, the week after the Olympics finish.
By the way check out just how funny Jimmy Fallon is in this hilarious sketch parody of Breaking Bad that was aired on his show that aired on his show this week.
