Late night, late night, late night. With a combined view count of over 50 million, this week’s top 5 TV clips all come out swinging.
With Jimmy Fallon moving from NYC to LA, you knew this week was going to be big for him. On the night of the Super Bowl, he started the week off on the right foot with an epic lip sync battle. Kevin Hart, Will Ferrell and Jimmy Fallon all put on quite the show. 22 million views and counting. On top of that, Jimmy also recreated the Fresh Prince opening and absolutely nailed it, and had a ‘Saved by the Bell’ reunion. 90’s Nostalgia alert.
AdvertisementNetflix released a chilling trailer for Marvel’s upcoming series ‘Daredevil’. I know Ben Affleck didn’t do the comic book justice 12 years ago, but I’ve got to say, this series looks pretty incredible. Leave it to Netflix to take on another winner.
Jimmy Kimmel cracked the top five this week with ‘Mean Tweets – Music Edition’. The 2nd iteration of musicians reading hateful, but hilarious insults in 140 characters or less couldn’t have been better. Drake, Katy Perry and Ariana Grande are among the victims. Good for a few laughs, no question.
