104.1 Jack FM's Brew Ha Ha: Jimmy Fallon at Orpheum Theatre
Saturday Night Live alumni have frequently been tapped to enter the upper echelon of the entertainment industry, though few have weathered such rapid ups and downs as Jimmy Fallon. After parlaying his giggly, nondescript presence on SNL from 1998 to 2004—including a serviceable turn co-anchoring Weekend Update with the far funnier Tina Fey—into a forgettable film career, Fallon zoomed past washed-up-SNL’er status by replacing Conan O’Brien as the host of Late Night. Despite a rocky start (and relative refusal to take sides on the Conan-Leno War), he's grown into the role.
