Matt Roush says...
Time flies when you’re having fun playing games in late night. The good news is you don’t have to stay up to watch Jimmy Fallon celebrate a decade as host of The Tonight Show, the pioneering late-night comedy-variety-talk show now in its 70th year. Fallon hosts the two-hour prime-time compilation special (starting at 9/8c), stuffed with clips of famous guests cutting up in lip sync battles, playing with classroom instruments, smashing eggs on their head, playing high-energy Charades and Password (which spawned its own NBC series) and all manner of other good-natured nonsense. You might wish some of the clips played out a bit longer, but they’ve got a lot of ground to cover.
