We've got the full line-up of first guests on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon."
Here it is, with commentary:
**Monday, March 2 – Show 0001 - Guests include Robert De Niro, Justin Timberlake and musical guest Van Morrison [Timberlake, announced yesterday, to draw in the young 'uns...]
Tuesday, March 3 – Show 0002 - Guests include Tina Fey (NBC's "30 Rock"), Jon Bon Jovi, and musical guest Santigold [Tina is one of the favors Jimmy F said he was calling in ... maybe Bon Jovi owes him a few hundred bucks, too ...]
**Wednesday, March 4 – Show 0003 - Guests include Cameron Diaz, Billy Crudup, and musical guest Clap Your Hands Say Yeah [Cam's getting married to that Brit model; maybe they can be the first contestants on the new Jerry Seinfeld show...]
Thursday, March 5 – Show 0004 - Guests include Donald Trump (NBC's "The Celebrity Apprentice"), Serena Williams and musical guest Ludacris [Uh-oh, just four days in and Jimmy has already been enlisted to flack for the primetime schedule.]
**Friday, March 6 – Show 0005 - Guests include Drew Barrymore, Chace Crawford, and Mario Batali [Barrymore's got that new reality show for VH1 about tough love, or somethin'; and Chace is on hand of course to talk about/promote those new episodes of "GG."]
**Monday, March 9 – Show 0006 - Guests include Rose Byrne and musical guest The Lonely Island [Rose, splendid Rose, is welcome on any talk show any time, as far as I'm concerned; the LI guys are pals of Jimmy's and have already done a funny vlog for him...]
**Tuesday, March 10 – Show 0007 - Guests include Emily Blunt, Michael Stipe, and musical guest Pussycat Dolls ["Devil Wears Prada" babe Blunt is eye-candy for all the young dudes Jimmy needs to succeed here..]
**Wednesday, March 11 – Show 0008 – Guests include Russell Brand, Kevin Rose &
Alex Albrecht, and musical guest The Virgins [Diggnation, Attack of the Show dudes Rose and Albrecht play to Fallon's tech/geek fascination, which you'll see a lot of here...]
**Thursday, March 12 – Show 0009 – Guests include Tracy Morgan (NBC's "30 Rock") and Malin Akerman [Tracy, another favor. Hope he arrives sober..no, hope he doesn't...]
**Friday, March 13 – Show 0010 – Guests include Brian Williams (NBC's "Nightly News with Brian Williams"), Kristen Wiig (NBC's "Saturday Night Live"), and
