Today we are shining a special spotlight on some of the most spot-on short video parodies in recent memory - with a special focus on the creme de la creme of such shorts; unveiled last night on THE JIMMY FALLON SHOW, the absolutely hilarious first installment of DOWNTON SIXBEY, starring Jimmy Fallon and Brooke Shields as well as Fallon's announcer, Steve Higgins (and a cameo from SNL and PORTLANDIA's Fred Armisen). An incredibly detailed and well-honed winking homage to the international smash hit Julian Fellowes early-19th century-set DOWNTON ABBEY that has cleaned up at the recent Emmy Awards and Golden Globes - a drama largely concerning itself with the goings on upstairs and downstairs at an impossible palatial country estate - DOWNTON SIXBEY centers on the various intrigues of the cast of characters at Studio 6B at 30 Rockefeller Center in New York City and contains countless winks and nudges to and taken at the expense of the hit Brit soap sensation of the century. From the opening sequence - a direct shot-for-shot recreation of the already iconic DOWNTON prologue - through to Fallon's all-to-apt pronunciation of 'here', Broadway and Hollywood star Brooke Shields looking ravishing as she says 'howdy' as politely as the other Lady Grantham herself and beyond - without even mentioning Fred Armisen's cameo as the homely 'other daughter' and the ?uestlove (Fallon's bandleader and the head of The Roots) cameo cliffhanger at the conclusion - this joking and sensitively rendered tribute hits the notes and chords all too few of the countless DOWNTON ABBEY parodies committed to celluloid so far fail to consistently reach and truly sings, zings and stings. When it comes to this sort of thing, it's all in the details, after all, isn't it? The same could be said of DOWNTON ABBEY itself, actually.

British chanteuse Barb Jungr is back at the Metropolitan Room (until April 28) with her critically-acclaimed Bob Dylan tribute show 'Man in the Long Black Coat,' and you shouldn't think twice about catching her fascinating interpretation of 13 classics from the Dylan repertoire. Jungr is much more than a Bob Dylan tribute artist and her show celebrating one of the world's greatest troubadours is a righteous revelation. Jungr doesn't just interpret Dylan songs, she re-imagines them.
