The first episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
The untitled debut episode of American late-night talk show ''The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon'' is the first episode to air in 2014, and the first episode of the series overall. The debut episode originally aired in the United States on February 17, 2014 on NBC.
==Plot==
''The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon'' premiered on February 17, 2014, following NBC's coverage of the Winter Olympics (the show started at midnight, past its usual 11:35 start time, as a result).〔 Fallon strolled out to applause, making light jokes referencing the storied franchise's host debacle of four years prior. He introduced his supporting stars and gave a brief history of his life and career, thanking his parents (who were in the audience) and explaining how his nightly monologue would work.〔 Following this, he once again took his place behind the curtain, restarting the show with more topical jokes on the Olympics and his first bit, ''Tonight Show'' Superlatives (an extension of a similarly titled bit from his ''Late Night'' tenure).〔
After taking his place behind the desk for the first time, Fallon took a moment to chide a friend who once bet him $100 he would never host ''The Tonight Show''. After this, Robert De Niro emerged from behind the curtain, laid $100 down on Fallon's desk, and promptly exited. (De Niro was Fallon's first guest on ''Late Night'' in 2009.) De Niro wasn't the only person to settle the bet: One by one, a line of celebrities followed him to Fallon's desk to give Jimmy their $100, including Tina Fey, Joe Namath, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (who can be heard thanking Fallon for bringing ''Tonight'' back to the Big Apple), Mariah Carey, Tracy Morgan, Joan Rivers (a former guest host on Johnny Carson's ''Tonight'' making her first appearance on ''Tonight'' since falling out with Carson in the mid-1980s), Kim Kardashian, Seth Rogen, Lindsay Lohan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Mike Tyson, Lady Gaga, and late-night rival Stephen Colbert. Colbert, the last to pay up, offered his $100 by dumping a bucket of pennies on Fallon, greeting him to the earlier time slot ("Welcome to 11:30, bitch!"), and taking a selfie with Fallon that he later posted to his Twitter feed.〔
Following the first commercial break, guest Will Smith and Fallon launched into a pre-taped sketch titled "The Evolution of Hip-Hop Dancing," rotating through various synchronized moves such as the Robot, the Humpty Dance, the Dougie and more; when Fallon begins to twerk, Smith walks offstage in disgust.〔 The next segment took place at the Top of the Rock, the roof of the 30 Rockefeller Plaza, with U2 performing their new single "Invisible" to the Manhattan skyline as the sun set.〔 The rooftop staging was devised by executive producer Lorne Michaels the previous Wednesday, with its odd placement in the middle of the show to take advantage of the sunset.〔 Next, Fallon welcomed Smith for the interview, with topics ranging from his parody of Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair" as Neil Young, and Smith's recent skydiving endeavor. U2 then returned and took their places on the couch for a short interview and an acoustic rendition of their single "Ordinary Love," accompanied by The Roots.〔 Fallon ecstatically closed the show and ran through the audience, high-fiving fans and seeking out his parents in the audience.〔
