Carrey On, Jimmy

In a little over 24 hours from now Jim Carrey will return to SNL for the first time since 1996, and there’s absolutely no way its going to satisfy our expectations.  We’ve already made the fatal mistake of building it up in our heads, so there’s no way it’s not going to be a colossal disappointment.  Nevertheless, we’re excited!

And while Carrey was inside 30 Rock he stopped over at Late Night to chat with another Jim.  Behold, Carrey on Fallon:

Vodpod videos no longer available.

Part 2

Wow, lots of energy from Carrey.  Makes us wonder if he’s been riding the snake.  Sure would help with the weight loss.

See you soon, Jim!  Hope you’re ready to shatter our dreams!

The Bestest News: Jim Carrey to Return to ‘SNL’! And a Look Back at His Last Go ‘Round

To this day we consider Jim Carrey’s May 1996 hosting turn as the best SNL of our generation (with perhaps Alec Baldwin’s November 2006 hosting appearance as the strongest since, but certainly not better), so it was with great excitement that we learned that Carrey will be returning after  almost 15 years to host the first SNL of 2011.  Set your DVRs for 11:30pm on January 8, kids.  If anyone could pull SNL out of its doldrums, it might be Carrey (although, the NBC website might want to get his name spelled name right).

Coming up: We look back at that instant classic…
