Jimmy Fallon Re-Creates 'Fresh Prince' Intro, With a Little Help
"Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down. I'd like to take a minute, if that's OK, I'll tell you how I brought 'The Tonight Show' out to L.A."
Jimmy Fallon is taping NBC's late night show in Los Angeles this week, and to celebrate the show's (brief) return to that city, he re-created the "Fresh Prince of Bel-air" intro, complete with graffiti, basketball, and taxi cab. Not only that, he got a little assist from "Fresh Prince" stars Alfonso Ribeiro and DJ Jazzy Jeff.
When Fallon took over as host, he moved the show to New York City. So, it was a nice callback for his temporary stint at Universal Studios, especially since one of the guests on his first episode was former "Fresh Prince" star Will Smith.
