I'm not entirely sure this works as a 30 minute show. I loved it on The Tonight Show, but here the trash talking seems super forced and awkward, the commentary bits are terrible, and Chrissy Tiegen is adding nothing of value. They also somehow manage to do fewer songs in 30 minutes (4) than Jimmy Fallon would do in one segment of The Tonight Show (usually 6). It's screams of, "We have 10 minutes of content, so let's stretch this out a bit."

I like the songs themselves, but I'll probably just fast forward past everything else. My favorite part was the commercial they showed on the OnDemand version that had Stephen Merchant doing a bit in...that outfit.

Also, for a pretty face, Chrissy Teigen does a pretty great job just hanging out and chatting with LL Cool J. She actually brings a lot of entertainment to the show.

Really? Was she better this week? She's been pretty useless thus far, I thought.

This is basically my new favorite show. This would be so easy to make terrible but they got the tone and guests perfect.


Teigen is nearly a black hole of charisma and really the only bad thing about the show. She's obviously hot as hell and looked amazing this last episode, but that's all she's bringing to the table for now. Of course, if she just had a more natural-sounding laugh and was given better material, I'm sure she'd be fine.

Agreed. That's why I was so confused when someone said they brought a lot of entertainment to the show. I just don't see it.

This episode was great, though. I love this silly show, slightly flawed as it is.

Seriously, cursory Google searches have bought me nothing. Does anyone have an article or tweet confirming this?

And if she is on the show, I hope they paired her up with somebody who can match her commitment because drat.

Well, the person that matched her on Jimmy Fallon's show was Paul Rudd:

But, I don't think Meowbot was implying that Emma Stone would be on the show. Just that she should be.

Yeah, the post mentioning her just said they wanted her on, not that she was going to be on.

Also, agreed, Paul Rudd was amazing. He, Emma Stone, Joseph Gordon Levitt, and Stephen Merchant (his single ladies performance) are my all time favorites.
