Let's all do the Sprain

I don't really know anyone who's a Jimmy Fallon fan. He was somewhat amusing in a few of his SNL sketches, if he could keep a straight face but he almost ruined the cowbell sketch by not being able to get out his one line. All his movies pretty much sucked except for Fever Pitch which was awesome...ly crappy. And if you've watched his late night show the monologues and a lot of his gimmicks are awful. However, he does have a few bright points. His interviews can be funny, and by all accounts he is a cool guy to hang out with, so a lot of the celebs who come on his show are actual friends of his and will mess around with him. Plus, one thing that i've always liked about him is that he is from the same generation as me (and I assume most of the people who would read anything I have to say) and he fully embraces that generation in all of its cheesy glory.

Case in point, Fallon has a running gag on his show where he is trying to work a reunion of all the Saved By the Bell cast members. You can tell that he was an actual fan of the show back in the day. Last night he had on Mark Paul Gosselaar and the results were hilarious and chalked full of old SBTB references. Check it out.... and bonus points to Gosselaar for being a good sport and not only playing along but hitting it out of the park.
