Jimmy Kimmel on Letterman; Twitter

Jimmy Kimmel was a guest on Letterman last night and it delivered exactly what I was hoping for: a discussion on the "Jay Leno Scandal".

The whole interview was funny and quite entertaining though. Last night felt like it should be called "The Twitter Show" as Dave fired up his "twitter machine" and sent tweets all throughout the night. Not during commercials though - he would be talking to a guest, go silent, turn around to the other side of his desk, hunch over the keyboard and type right in the middle of an interview. I almost feel like I subscribe to his tweets just by watching the show. The following were tweeted during the show:

2400 dollars for a wax figure? Hell, I got that on me. Ha Ha!

He has problems with slow typing though. Apparently they got him a left-handed keyboard.

Classic Roots Choice #18

Jason Sudekis - And The Roots play "Young Chuck Norris".

Maybe not that obscure but still, when The Roots play it, it's awesome.

An interesting event happens tonight, (Tuesday) David Letterman welcomes Jimmy Kimmel to his show. Ought to be somewhat interesting since they're competitors and both talk show hosts.

Final thoughts.

Classic Roots Choice #17

There have been a number of walk-on songs which were gray areas as to whether they deserved a blog post. For instance, Mike Meyers was on Friday night's show and the Roots played the "Halloween" theme (Mike Meyers/Halloween, yeah).

But the guest after Mike Meyers made it a "no brainer". Matt Lucas, of Little Britain fame was on to promote "Alice in Wonderland". For him, The Roots played "The Peanut Song" (unofficial title).

If you haven't seen heard it on the youtubes, it goes a little something like this:

Yes, it's just that stupid. That is one hot backing track.

It's possible they "cheated" and just did a youtube search for possible songs. But if not, I am extremely impressed. I'm a fan of "Little Britain" and, by extension, Matt Lucas, and I was only barely aware of this clip so if they genuinely knew about it, my hat is off to them... again.

Saved By The Bell: OUT. California Dreams: IN.

It's officially been over a year since Jimmy Fallon began hosting "Late Night" and for most of that time his dream has been to finally reunite the cast of "Saved By The Bell". He has failed and admitted defeat. But now, his new dream is to reunite the cast of the NBC Saturday morning show "California Dreams".

The attempt was not without controversy and not without a shirtless dude. Also, with the "California Dreams" reunion, I expected a great time at the beach... sans Mr. Belding... Let's watch...

Can I make a suggestion? The next show reunion needs to be, absolutely HAS TO BE the NBC Saturday morning show "Hang Time". Make it happen.

"SKEEZAS DISSIN' HOMEY SCRUBS!"

"CHICKEN HEEEAAAAADD!!!!!!!!"

Cranberry Saaaucccce

President and CEO of Toyota Akio Toyoda apologizes to the American people and David Letterman. But it raises more questions than it answers.
