VIDEO: Justin Timberlake on Jimmy Fallon

Video from the premiere of Jimmy Fallon's new late night show. Another stellar comic turn from Justin Timberlake, Jimmy Fallon seemed a little nervous but I'm sure he'll get in the groove.

Jimmy Fallon is that affable goof you can’t help but root for. Maybe it’s because we’re nostalgic for his days on “Saturday Night Live” or because we feel bad about his fleeting movie career. (Remember “Fever Pitch”? Yeah, me neither.) Whatever the reason, I couldn’t help but want Fallon to be brilliant on his “Late Night” debut last night. Unfortunately, that’s not what happened. OK, it wasn’t that bad, but come on, Jimmy — impersonating De Niro to his face? Really? But there were some bright spots amid Fallon’s nervous twitching and uncomfortable blinking...

...mainly Justin Timberlake. Is there anything JT can’t do? Justin came in cool and confident as usual, bantered with Fallon like they were high-school buddies and stole the show. A throwback to their memorable “Barry Gibb Talk Show” “SNL” skit and Justin’s dead-on John Mayer impersonation almost made up for the De Niro interview. Almost.
