The show's studio, NBC Studio 6B, was the same studio that The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962) was originally broadcast from. This was the first time "The Tonight Show" was regularly broadcast in New York City since Carson moved the show to Burbank in 1972. See more »

When Jimmy arm wrestles with his guests, both of them can be seen holding the edge of the table with their other hand for leverage and support. See more »
Every night there is one thing you can expect from The Tonight Show hosted by Jimmy Fallon and that is ...every night you don't know what to expect Jimmy will do with his guests. I love the Roots band and emcee Steve Higgins and how they interact with Jimmy, his guests, and how the Roots band music brings this late night talk show to more than just a conversation but brightens an otherwise endless conversation to great blends of music, with dance, and with comical skits that interact with Jimmy and his guests that have us the viewing audience crying of laughter.
I have to assume that some of the Grade A stars that have appeared on the Tonight Show prepare well in advance to allow them to "step up their game" as they are introduced as tonights guest by Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show. If you think about it, Jimmy Fallon himself does not have the same opportunity to practise the routines/skits that he is expected to pull off alongside his guests since Jimmy is the host and is on every night of the week. I think a lot of people don't realize how much natural talent Jimmy Fallon has as the host of the Tonight Show as he interacts with his guests and sings, dances and does stand up comedy flawlessly each and every night.
Similar to Jimmy's previous TV talk show, that being "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" which he hosted from 2009-2014 before taking over the reigns on the Tonight Show from the well respected Jay Leno in 2014, you will notice how much fun all of Jimmy's guests are really having interacting with Jimmy. It is quite evident that Jimmy lives in the moment and he gets the most out of all of his guests who just seem to let go of all their inhibitions as they trust Jimmy will make them even more popular in the eyes of his audience.
Fact: Jimmy's return guests with the highest number of guest appearances are those politicians now running to become the next President of the USA in November 2016 led by Donald Trump himself with 27 guest appearances.
Fact: The Tonight Show averages 100 million views per week on YouTube such that NBC and YouTube have a financial agreement in the splitting of advertising revenue that The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon brings in.
Congratulations Jimmy Fallon on your great success with the most entertaining late night talk show and to all you naysayers stay tuned in 2020 when Jimmy Fallon celebrates his 1,500th episode.
A perfect 10 score!
