It can all get to be too much. But you know, for every 10 Jays Leno and Gywneths Paltrow, there is one Zach Galifianakis. Those numbers are not in our favor, and yet, somehow, it sometimes feels like it’s still working out OK. Zach was on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night for another installment of “Let Us Play With Your Look”:
Good. There ARE people in this world (which was not made for us) who are at least trying. So that’s nice.
After the jump, Jimmy Fallon’s interview with Zach Galifianakis:
I am still just looking forward to this Saturday so much. What a treat!

Pray to your comedy God, because I’m pretty sure this guy is the second coming of Comedy Jesus.
Upvote 4 Eva!
He even looks like Comedy Jesus descending from the heavens when he wobbles through the audience at the beginning of this bit.
Behold, and he shall walk among us, wearing swaddling clothes that are always just a *bit* too tight!
It’s Phat Jesus, thank you very much.
I think he looks like werttrew’s cat with that wig on.
I want to be down with the Zach Galifianakis, because I know how important it is. I’m not understanding his schtick – is it that he’s portly, intense and has a beard? Actually, that’s pretty funny now that I think about it, I guess. Ha!
Google “Between Two Ferns” and watch all those.
Google “Live at the Purple Onion” and watch that.
An education.
Oh, and if you feel up to it afterwards, you can google Galifianakis, Absolut Vodka, and Tim & Eric and watch their ads they made.
He played with my look. He told me to say “when” at the point I was satisfied, but with my stutter and a slight delay due to my medications, we passed the point of personal satisfaction and ended up somewhere near Xenia, Ohio.
i love everything about this.
My brother had this exact same Sears portrait done, except he was holding a pink electric guitar instead of a cat and his mullet was not pulled back in a ponytail. For serious.
I hate to burst your bubble, Jimmy, but much of the time it WAS YOUR FAULT.
I’ve really got to hand it to Jimmy. I know I’m essentially just echoing what Gabe said, but he really has come into his own despite extremely low expectations. I guess he just needed time to mature, and he’s done just that.
Congrats on your baby (is it weird that I am telling this to an avatar?)!
I LOVE when Gabe references that Belle and Sebastian song and LOVE Zach. My heart is bursting in my cube right now. Can’t wait to watch this when I get home. I don’t even need to see it to know that it will be brilliant. Second coming indeed!
it is good to feel so hopeful about a SNL. yay kristen wiig
Agreed. Kristen Wiig is great.
Gabe! don’t even kid about there being 10 Jay Lenos!
You can tell that girl hadn’t seen the Jimmy Fallon show before.
Not because she just sat there unawares that they were going to mess her stuff up or put shaving cream on her head, no;
It was because no one is watching the Jimmy Fallon show!
ZING
He’s great, but his name is too hard to spel, right Youtube closed captions?
Words.
I remember the Bulls’ Jordan-Pippen years when they could not be stopped. This is a weirder, beardier version of that.
Time to ride those coattails!
Left: Let Us Play With Your Look Girl Right: Me.
Excuse me, but I have an inexplicable urge to go out and get some Tide. And Schweppes.
What? That little bitch is too good to eat minced fish? When i was a kid that’s the only kind of fish we had.
“I don’t have time to do SPOOFS.” –best quote ever.
Schweppes.
I get the feeling whoever does the bookings for Jimmy Fallon’s show is a lot more clued-in than Jimmy Fallon is.
It’s like Ike & Tina Turner on Ed Sullivan.
This is the first clip of Jimmy Fallon’s show that I have seen. And his show is like, 2 years old now? Now I think well of him.
SURF DUUUUUUUUUDES WITH ATTITUUUUUUDE (kinda groovay)
“Let Us Play With Your Look” feels like watching a game show in another language. Spanish, maybe, or Japanese.
Wow, Jimmy Fallon, raising the bar. seriously, that was very well done by him, prolly the funniest thing I’ve ever seen on his show, even over Tim and Eric’s interview

If we have learned anything about life recently…it is that “New Blood” is an important idea.
The key part of that sentence is “and Conan doesn’t.”
