[ cheers and applause ] i always have the best time eating and drinking at super bowl party. until it's over and i have to spend an hour at a porcelain bowl party. [ laughter ] but it's still fun. i don't know if you guys saw, this morning, president obama spoke at the national prayer breakfast in washington, d.c. obama told the crowd that no one should go broke when they go sick in the richest nation on earth. which, i think, is his way of saying we're going to start exporting sick people to china. [ laughter ] listen to this. on the "today" show, this morning, michelle obama said she likes having her mother live at the white house because she helps take care of sasha and malia. and barack obama said he likes having his mother-in-law living at the white house because he has to say that. [ laughter ] you guys hear about what's going

on with toyota? this is crazy. it's like, their job is to make cars, right? that's what they do, toyota? well, they had a problem with gas pedals getting stuck -- now, they're recalling the prius because the brakes don't work. [ laughter ] and because of this, sales of ford cars and trucks rose 25% in the past month. but ford says it's because of their new ad slogan, "ford, because toyota is trying to kill you." [ laughter ] interesting slogan. [ cheers and applause ] toyota is asking anyone who owns a new prius to return it to the dealership as slowly as they possibly can. [ laughter ] you guys hear this? london is opening a new theme park called "abba world." [ light laughter ] yeah, abba world. visitors to the park can take quizzes, re-create abba's sound at a mixing desk, dance next to an abba hologram and, most

importantly, leave. [ laughter ] this is weird. a company in california is working on a new wireless monitor for pill bottles that tattles on you when you forget to take your medicine. yeah, it's the same system already used by people who take drugs for hallucinations. "okay, bottle's talking. time to take another one." "there you go." "thank you." [ laughter ] check this out. a new study found that eating corned beef for breakfast could help you lose weight. doesn't sound like a study. that sound like something a guy who eats corned beef for breakfast says. [ light laughter ] "corned beef is the best meal of the day." [ light laughter ] "what?" "i eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner." [ light laughter ] "weirdo." i ought this was pretty interesting. a new research found that one in five people has an unfitness gene, which makes them out of shape no matter how much they exercise. the same research also found that five out of five people will now use that as their

excuse for being out of shape. [ laughter ] "i have this disease, man! you don't get it! [ applause ] i don't want to look like this!" "liar."

[ cheers and applause ] ladies love channing tatum. from the very funny, "parks and recreation," aubrey plaza is joining us. [ cheers and applause ] dudes like aubrey plaza. and we've got music from a

great, great band. hot chip is going to be here tonight, doing it up. [ cheers and applause ] and rocking it out. they're rally good. they're also going to do an exclusive song for our website, latenightwithjimmyfallon.com. it'll be up right after the show, so this is going to be great. i appreciate them being here. as you guys all know, jay leno is moving back to the "tonight show" in a few weeks and this leaves a big hole for nbc to fill every night at 10:00 pm. but they got some new shows coming up that they're really excited about. the network says that they've found a winning formula. and what they're doing is they're taking successful tv shows already out there from any network and combining them to make newer, better ones. i know, it makes perfect sense. [ light laughter ] i'm not really sure how they can do this legally, but i'm glad they are because these shows look fantastic. [ light laughter ] like this one here. first, we have "hardball with chris matthews," the political news show on msnbc and then we ve "nip/ck." [ laughter ]

a show about plastic surgery on the fx network. two very different shows that have been combined into the new nbc show "hard nips with chris matthews." [ laughter it says here, higgins, "the hottest issues, the coldest newsroom and absolutely no undershirt." [ laughter ] >> steve: well, there you are. that's a winner. that's a winner. >> jimmy: that's a winner. yeah, i like the show because he gives equal exposure to the right and the left nipple. [ laughter ] >> steve: you like it because it's not called "ball talk," so -- [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that was a joke you thought of, higgy? [ laughter ] you thought it was going to be called "ball tuck"? [ laughter ] "hard nip." >> steve: okay. well, now i know. >> jimmy: yeah, you do. yeah. this one here.

here's another one here. nbc is just taking "the ghost whisperer" and "flash forward." they're two popular shows right now. they've combined them to make this completely brand new show "the ghost flasher," which is really -- [ laughter ] he's a lewd dude who's not afraid to get booed. [ laughter ] look, i don't know why someone would flash a ghost. i thought it was the ghost that would be doing the flashing. either way, it's just a weird dude flashing ghosts. i'm just so psyched. i think it's time. [ light laughter ] next, we have "frontline," a respectable news program on pbs and nbc's own hit "the biggest loser." now, the network's taking these two great shows and combining them into one super show "front butt." [ laughter ] this is a news show about people who have eaten so much that they now have butts in the front.

the first episode features an interview with fat kris kross, so i'm looking forward to that. [ light laughter ] this next one -- >> steve: wear the clothes backwards. >> jimmy: yeah. [ laughter ] this next one blew my mind when i first heard of this one. they are taking the brand new show "men of a certain age." it's about the day-to-day lives of -- [ laughter ] kris kross. they wear their clothes backwards. >> steve: it's for the kids. the kids don't know -- >> jimmy: yeah, because they missed the bus. what was the other song they had? "jump, jump, kris kross will make you jump, jump." >> steve: yeah, yeah.

>> jimmy: daddy mack and mack daddy. >> steve: oh, yeah. love it. [ light laughter ] >> jimmy: anyway. they're taking the brand new show "men of a certain age." it's about the day-to-day life of a middle-aged guy and combining it with a show that's not even on the air anymore, "e.r." the result is "e.d." a dramatic new series about erectile dysfunction. [ laughter ] it's going to be fantastic. there's actually a warning on the bottom, too. it says "if this sw lasts for four hours or more, stop watching and call your doctor." [ laughter ] see? it informs as it entertains, and that's good tv. now, check this one out. what do you get when you combine abc's "shark tank" and showtime's "secret diary of a call girl"? you get nbc's hottest new game show, "skank tank." [ laughter ] where hookers compete and see who can hold their breath in a giant aquarium the longest. [ light laughter ] the slogan is "we're going to need a bigger filter," is what

it says. [ audience groans ] i can't wait for it. tivo is already set. this next one is interesting. it combines three shows. tres shows. "wake up with al," "weeds" and "the lake" to form "wake n bake lake." [ laughter ] look how red his eyes are. did you see how red his eyes were? four stoners, one summer camp. the forecast? totally cloudy with a super high pressure. [ laughter ] i can see al branching out into screwball comedy. and finally, what happens when you take one part "america's most wanted" and combine it with a dash of "bones"? you get "america's most boned."
