Behind the Scenes of Jimmy Hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live! | The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

[@lak1796]

One thing for sure: Fallon is always appreciative to others. That's what I'll rembember him for. His attitude.

Best April Fool's Day prank. They should do this switcheroo again! 😆

[@stephanbosch225]

yes. Nobody ever did this before. So original.

[@scsutton1]

I think they should wait a few years. Given that it was the first April 1st out of the pandemic, I can understand it as a nice surprise, but on repeat would get boring after a while.

Enjoy them both but watching Fallon’s energy always brings a big smile to my face. Ever play that game, what celebrity would you love to spend a night hanging out with? Fallon is my #1 choice every time. I think it’s literally impossible to have a bad time when he is in the same room. Apocalypse could happen and if he’s nearby you’ll die giggling.

[@PiazzaGurl]

I loved. Love both Jimmy’s, they have such a great respect and friendship. And both are humble. Great responses from audiences on both shows.

I know Fallon interviewed Timberlake as Matt Damon but what would have been equally as funny is if Damon had been scheduled on the Tonight Show and Kimmel ended up bumping him because they ran out of time.
