Sounds good to me!
Oh and though it's only been a couple years, I'd like to see a reunion of The King of Queens, Doug.

Fallon's best trait is that he sort of is an everyman that happens to be on TV (this is also his downfall as he's nothing special) so this actually fits the bill for something he'd do regularly.
Guy needs to learn how to interview and kill stuff that doesn't work.

I think this could happen if Screech only joins via satellite. I don't think anyone is in good terms with him.

Why would it be hard to get the cast together? I guarantee they are already booked on the show and this just promotion/hype.

Yeah, I saw the appeal from Jimmy and Mr. Belding a couple of weeks ago. This could be good.

I think this is fantastic.
However, anyone else think this is just a boost to get him more of an audience? The guy is unfunny and his show is terrible.. but damn it, he's got my attention now.

I agree that Fallon still has a way to go, but I think people need to cut him some slack. He's still finding his way, and I actually think he's gotten better. If you remember, people didn't exactly love Conan back when he took over for Dave. It takes time.
If anything, I think Jimmy should be applauded for trying different things than the other hosts. Instead of the same ol' "answer questions, tell boring stories, show a clip" interviews, he actually gets these celebrities to do things a little different than we're used to seeing. (Dennis Leary air hockey, Ice-T singing with Elmo, playing Wii Punch Out with Morgan Webb). I think it's fun.
And I love that he's a total tech geek like me. Call it product placement or whatever, but I love watching him geek out over new technology on his show. (making that one audience member into a star on Twitter was awesome)

Good idea but I don't think it'll save Fallon's show which is almost as bad as The Chevy Chase Show. Unfortunately, everyone is not suited to host a talk show.

The reason Jimmy Fallon's show will not work is bc once Jay Leno's shit show starts no one is going to be watching 3 hours of talk shows a night. Hopefully Leno's show dies a quick and painful death, but unfortunately that probably won't happen.
