Fun Stuff

Trivia:
When Leno does bits at his desk where he will hold up fake products (e.g., "Read the Fine Print" or "Amazon.com's Worst Sellers"), a production assistant named Joey has been seen just off-camera catching the objects that have already been used. He allegedly first got that task because he bet on the Chicago Bears to win Super Bowl XLI. (The Bears lost to the Indianapolis Colts, 29-17.) more

Final Verdict: 7 out of 10, 14 June 2000
Author: ray.cooper from Cologne, Germany

The most watchable, popular and plain funny talk show in the US stands and falls with the jokes of the hugely likeable, self-ironic and very funny Jay Leno, who after failed attempts to become a movie actor took over the show from talk show host legend Johnny Carson. If Jay is in good shape, and he is very often in very good shape, he delivers one knockout joke per minute in his terrific opening monologue. His guests are often great and diverse, from super model to super movie star and to exotic animals and young inventors, he has them all and they often deliver the goods. Small and bald Kevin Eubanks is a sympathetic support to Jay, laughing all the time. Not always, however, is the show on the top, but often enough.
