In other words, NBC has a new promotion for it's lame successor to Carson with a fake blog from a fake intern. Yay.

OMG - not on MetaFilter!!!

(That lame schtick is bad enough when I catch 5 seconds of it while flipping channels on the boobtube/plasmaspasma...)

Ok, you're not an intern unless you get college credit...

Wow. He's lost a lot of weight. At first, this guy annoyed me, but I've grown to enjoy his act. Which is strange, because I usually enjoy this kind of performance until it begins to grate on me. Ross reverses the nelly paradigm.

Wow. He's lost a lot of weight.

And he talks about it tomorrow (Friday) night on The Tonight Show:

"We're airing the segment we shot while I filmed an episode of Celebrity Fit Club."

At first, this guy annoyed me, but I've grown to enjoy his act.

Same here. And he really is "quick-on-his-feet."

I liked the Crocodile Hunter one. No WAY I'd have let that spider crawl on me!

Dude completely has stolen his schtick from Richard Simmons. I guess Leno had to get him some Simmons of his own.

Andy Richter, Borat and Triumph did a much better job of the weather before this guy.

Okay, so I watched the "Golden Globes" clip and I have to say: How cool would it be to see Steven Speilberg and have him recognize you and tell you that he loves your work. As Ross said, "I can die now."

He's apparently got a lot of fans among the Hollywood celebrity set.

I can't believe he used the "Flock of Seagulls" line in the Burbank FD link.

The Tivo picked up his bit the othernight as a presenter at the Country Music Awards, we found it hilarious.
