   If I… we’re an NBC exec… I’dddddddd…

   Put the Roots and Jimmy on from 8-10 with a 2 hour tribute. Freestyle it, friends of Roots show up, tribute to Michael. People would watch and experience something they’d probably never see again in their life.

   But I’ll settle for Ms. Badu and the Legendary at the late night time.

   Thank you.

   Respect to Jimmy, but damn, sometimes he needs to stop yappin for a second and let Eyrkah speak. He’s like that annoying kid in class that never shut up and even though he’s funny, sometimes its like “Jimmy, cool out a sec”

   I watched a whole episode of Jimmy Fallon last night hoping for something special, and instead I had to watch some Grizzly Bear Pitchfork-indie shit? Eww

   I guess we had to be in the studio to experience that MJ Tribute in between commercial breaks!!!! Should have gave them(Roots & Badu a little time during the show to do 5 minute tribute instead of that dumb-ass karoke and those made up world records!!!

    As always,The Roots & Erykah Badu are AMAZING! And Jimmy Fallon is still the least funny,most annoying,& least-deserving no-talent so-called “comedian” in late night television history! Just give The Roots their own late-night show & fire his pathetic ass. People only watch that show to see The Roots anyway. Seriously. Fallon wasn’t funny on SNL,his few movies have been terrible,he can’t write or tell a joke…how did he get a show? Did he blackmail Lorne Michaels w/some down-low info? I’d really like to know how NBC can invest millions in that chump,when there are truly gifted & appealing comic minds working out here. But THE ROOTS ARE INCREDIBLE!
