On last night’s test show for “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,” Jack McBrayer filmed a response to Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal’s speech, and I hate to piss in the punch bowl, but the result was kind of disappointing. Like, when I saw Jindal’s speech, I was like “Oh my God! He sounds like Kenneth!” Then I watched this, and I was like, “Yeah, so he sounds like Kenneth. Big whoop.”
What happened? Is it Jimmy Fallon’s fault? Did he somehow make it unfunny? I feel like blaming Fallon is the easy way out. So that’s why I’m gonna blame him.

Fallon was trying to be to Jindal what Tina Fey was to Palin…and fell waaaaay short. I’m expecting Aasif Mandvi from The Daily Show to take his shot any day now, and predict much better results.
You know who laughs at Jimmy Fallon?
Jimmy Fallon.
Jimmy Fallon wouldn’t know funny if it poked him in the eye socket with a screw driver.
But we should keep poking. We’ve got to try SOMETHING.
I wish Jimmy Fallon would get AIDS, but that is just how I am. A glass is half full of AIDS type of guy.
Jimmy Fallon, meet “disappointing.” You’re going to get to know each other very well…
Oh, you already know each other? NO WAY
Chris Kattan and Jimmy Fallon should just go fuck and get it over with.
Jimmy will FallOn his face, right guys?…..Guys?

Cannon, if you can’t get that side door open, Jimmy it.
More like Jimmy FAILlon.
Seriously, this show is going to be used to interrogate terrorists.
I personally salute Lorne Michaels on his bold initiate to have an unfunny man host a Light Night talk show. May he only occasionally giggle in the middle of his lame and predictable jokes!
Wow, just wow.
