The news has been pretty bleak these last few days, as the COVID-19 coronavirus continues to spur a once-in-a-generation crisis across the US and much of the rest of the world. So many of our public spaces are closing or drastically reducing their operations, while everyone hunkers down at home to ride out the spread of the deadly virus. If you pay too close attention to the news and to your Twitter feed, it can get easy to feel overwhelmed and a sense of helpless anxiety, which is why entertainers are starting to do what they can to spread a little good cheer at the moment. John Legend, for example, went live on Instagram Tuesday to perform an in-home concert.
All of the late-night TV hosts, meanwhile, have shuttered production of their respective shows as social distancing has become the order of the day, which is why Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday decided to debut a “home edition” of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He put a homespun, 10-minute version of the show together, complete with a “monologue” that basically consisted of dad-jokes, crude drawings from his kids, and a musical number in honor of St. Patrick’s Day.
