Named one of the 10 shows in 2010 that "helped make television worth watching" by the Los Angeles Times, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" has become the go-to destination for comedy, music and A-list talent. Comedian Jimmy Fallon brings a fun new energy to the NBC comedy-talk franchise with his personalized interview style, love of audience participation, spot-on impersonations and innovative sketches. The show consistently garners attention for viral videos, audience games and prominent guests such as Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Gwyneth Paltrow and Justin Timberlake. Fallon's choice of house band, The Roots, has been universally praised.

In less than two years on the air, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" had already begun collecting awards. In 2009, the show's website, latenightwithjimmyfallon.com, won both an Emmy Award and a Webby Award. The same year, Fallon himself received the "Webby Person of the Year" Award. In 2010, the show won its second consecutive Emmy for its website, as well as an Emmy for Short-Form Editing for the "Glee" parody "6-Bee." Most recently, the show's website earned its second Webby nomination.

Since its broadcast debut on March 2, 2009, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" has created a huge online presence for itself with many of its popular segments, celebrity sketches and musical performances becoming viral hits. Popular serialized "Late Night" segments include "Real Housewives of Late Night" and "Jersey Floor," which spoof present day reality TV sensations. "Robert Is Bothered" and "Reflections of Justin Bieber" are other notable fan favorites, in addition to audience participation bits like "Lick It for Ten," "Competitive Spit-Takes," and "Freestyling with The Roots."
