VIDEO: Jimmy Fallon Celebrates National Teacher Appreciation Day on THE TONIGHT SHOW

By:



In honor of Teacher Appreciation Day, Jimmy welcomed more than 200 New York City public school educators in-studio to fill the audience, all of whom are Big Apple Award recipients, finalists or nominees. As a citywide recognition program, the Big Apple Awards celebrates TEACHERS who inspire their students and promote high-quality education in their communities.

"The Tonight Show" returned to its New York origins when "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" made its broadcast debut from Studio 6B in Rockefeller Center. Emmy Award- and Grammy Award-winning comedian Jimmy Fallon brings a high-tempo energy to the storied NBC franchise with his welcoming interview style, love of audience participation, spot-on impersonations and innovative sketches.

An American television institution for almost 60 years, "The Tonight Show" continues to be a home to big-name celebrity guests and a stage for top musical and comedic talent. Taking a cue from his unforgettable predecessors, including hosts Johnny Carson and Jay Leno, Fallon carrys on the tradition that audiences know and love - kicking off every show with the iconic "Tonight Show" monologue.
