Our friend and animal expert Jeff Musial returns to Late Night tonight! It's always a great time when he visits us because of the unique exotic animals he brings and the "expect the unexpected-ness" of his segment. If you'll remember, one of the best moments of LNWJF so far was when one of Jeff's Brazilian cockroaches escaped during the show (without anyone realizing) and it was still there, lurking the next day!

Ok everyone, lock up your wives, because Bill "Big Love" Paxton is coming to the show tonight and you don't know what this guy is gonna do! (He might marry your wife. That's just a character he plays! I'm kidding!) Bill Paxton is currently starring in HBO's Big Love as Bill Henrickson, a modern day polygamist and husband to three wives. He has also been seen in such huge blockbusters as Twister, Apollo 13, and Titanic among many others. You have probably seen all these films more than once, but let me tell you what you probably not seen. Bill Paxton was once in a new wave band called "Martini Ranch" and they released a video for their song "Reach". Here are things that make this AWESOME. It features some Three Amigos characters being dragged behind a horse while playing instruments. Not enough? It has cameos from Judge Reinhold and Paul Reiser. Need more? It was directed by JAMES CAMERON and it's the only music video he's ever shot. How have you not seen this, right? It is an 80's new wave gem, so put your work aside and watch it NOW.

When I lose an umbrella I always say, "Well I know it didn't just get up and walk out of here."

I guess I'm wrong.

On last night's Late Night actor Willie Garson talked to Jimmy about Fever Pitch, White Collar, and his acting class. Chef Eric Ripert showed Jimmy and Willie Garson how to make a warm salmon carpaccio - in a toaster oven.

On last night's Late Night audience members set the words of Tom Tancredo, Joseph Farah, and Sarah Palin to beautiful music and three audience members bobbed for medals in a tub of snow.

Stephen Colbert was on the show tonight - and we're so glad he could make it! Our two shows - Late Night and The Colbert Report - tape almost simultaneously, so this was a tight squeeze for Stephen. To save time, Jimmy conducted the last portion of the interview while walking Stephen out of the building:

To see the rest of the interview, keep going - Jimmy and Stephen discuss the Grammys and a recent beef he had with Jimmy regarding a Glamour article.

While everybody is getting excited about the new (and final) season of Lost, we here at LNwJF are still reeling from something similar that happened about a year ago after an elevator accident. The series, called Late, debuts this Friday, February 12. For now, here's a trailer. Prepare yourself.

So. Excited.

I have no idea what to tell you. You're going to have to watch!

Hint: It's Olympics-related.
