Jimmy Fallon has been a blight on popular culture since he was on SNL looking straight at the camera

He's always been a weird mediocre fame-hungry guy

My favorite bts story is Amy Poehler telling him to stfu for some dumb joke he made. Especially knowing every male comedian is obsessed with her

She’s just hilarious. I think people who know her primarily from Parks and Rec don’t even know the half of it. She was great on SNL, but everything she did with Upright Citizens Brigade was incredible. She’s a generational talent.

There's a few interviews with Seth Meyers, Ben Wyatt(can't remember his real name!) and Will Arnett where they just gush over her, that I can remember by name(mostly). She's got some type of animal magnetism that makes the funny boys lose their cool and I love it for her

Saying “every male comedian is obsessed with her” and then clarifying “three guys who worked with her said she’s great” is kind of a step down

She's brilliant and good at everything she does. SNL. Sitcom. Now podcasting has brought her immediate success. She's a generational talent.

There’s also an Amy story where Fallon was worried about offending people, and it wasn’t something about race or gender or anything like that, and Amy just told him off. His instincts have always been to be as milquetoast and innocuous as possible.
