It’s a slow goddamn news day, and I’m not just saying that because I’m about to jump on a plane to Philly. There is nothing out there this morning, not even a trailer for a crappy new movie, which is strange considering that Thursday night and Friday mornings are when many of them debut. I suppose no one wanted to attach their new trailers to Land of the Lost (review coming later today, from Philadelphia).

Anyway, it’s been a big week in the late night world. Conan debuted on “The Tonight Show, and since there’s been little else on TV, I’ve watched a lot of late-night TV. And here’s where you benefit — here are three of the better segments from around late night this week.

The first video comes from Jimmy Fallon’s show. Mrs. Pajiba-hyphenate insists he’s funny; she thinks his stuttering, rambling, and nervousness is charming. I think she has a very low threshold for charming (see, e.g., her choice of husband). But, Jimmy Fallon really is his best when he’s playing guitar. This is pretty great:

Next up, here’s Dave’s Top Ten from last night. The Top Ten Reason’s You’ve Hired a Bad Host for the Tony Awards. Neil Patrick Harris does the honors.

And finally, Dan was pimping this on Twitter yesterday. It’s pretty great: Conan’s new set is remarkably similar to Mario Brothers. Check it out. And for the hell of it, here’s Conan’s cold open on his very first show on “The Tonight Show.”

Dustin is the founder and co-owner of Pajiba. You may email him here, follow him on Twitter, or listen to his weekly TV podcast, Podjiba.
