On March 2nd Saturday Night Live alumni Jimmy Fallon will take over the chair of Late Night talk show host Conan O’Brien. During a New York fashion week event, Jimmy said he has already had an opportunity to test out “the chair” and is ready.
Not wanting to give away too much of what to expect, Fallon said, “We got ’em. We got the first show. It’s gonna be good.” His crew has been busy writing monologues and guest pieces as well as overseeing the building of the set.
Jimmy’s NBC show will be titled Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and will feature show band, The Roots. The funny man is married to Nancy Juvonen.
After a short hiatus, O’Brien will be heading to L.A. to take over for Jay Leno on the Tonight Show in June.
