Bill Clinton was the big topic of conversation last night after he negotiated the release of U.S. journalists being held in North Korea. Of course, the jokes were as lewd as they were laudatory.

John Oliver suggested a new course for Obama that involves resigning, Jimmy Kimmel took on Heidi Pratt (which may be too easy), and Stephen Colbert reminds us that just because you are a naked wizard doesn't mean you have a magic wand.

Fallon is out of breath, sloppy as usual.

What would happen if Obama sent George Bush instead of Bill Clinton to bring back Laura and Euna?

Many of these were very funny. I thought Fallon's impressions were actually decent as well. The one that I am surprised was not included was The Daily Show featuring Senator Grassley's comparison of healthcare reform and King Arthur:

Fallon had a decent joke, but --as usual-- he botched the delivery. And those impressions? Pleeeeeeeeeeeze!

Jimmy Fallon is actually an amazing impressionist. I wish he'd do them more often.

I actually liked the Obama impression.

I'm usually very critical of Jimmy Fallon, but his impressions are really good. His Adam Sandler is flawless, and his Obama is much better than Fred Armisen's... and Armisen does it for a living on SNL.

He is a very good impressionist. But when I see him on the tube..I just want to say to him, "dude, relax already. you got the job."

Exactly. His monologue skills are amateurish at best. He does better with the interviews and skits.

John Oliver wins: "Which, as a Kenyan, I'm sure he's great at!"

The audience's reaction to Conan bringing up the view was priceless too.

Conan's "Another Asian happy ending" was a close second ;)
