By Matt Moore
After taking last week off, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon has fans hoping for new episodes starting tonight. What should audiences expect to see tonight on NBC?
The week off was expected given the holidays but that doesn’t mean fans were any less disappointed not to see new content from Jimmy Fallon. This was especially true considering The Tonight Show was coming off its return to Studio 6B in front of a studio audience as well as the return of announcer Steve Higgins.
Look for the show to recapture that energy on Monday. There will be a brand new episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon tonight.
Fans can anticipate that Fallon will recap his Easter holiday before catching up on some of the stories he missed from last week. Then, it’s on the to guest interviews.
Who’s on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon tonight?
First, Jimmy Fallon will interview actor Milo Ventimiglia. The fifth season of his drama This Is Us is airing right now with a new episode scheduled for April 6.
Fallon should get Ventimiglia to tease what is in store for the rest of season five on This Is Us. It’s also possible that the actor could weigh in on the future of Gilmore Girls after star Lauren Graham was asked about it recently.
Then, Kenny and Keith Lucas join the Tonight Show. Better known as the Lucas Brothers, the comedians/writers/actors/producers have a lot going on right now. They recently picked up an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay for their work on Judas and the Black Messiah. Expect them to discuss what it was like to receive the nomination, the story of how Judas came together, and what they have planned next.
Tonight’s musical guest is Kali Uchis. Her album Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios) was released in Nov. 2020. The most recent single is “Telepatía.”
