They say you can’t go back home, but don’t tell that to the Tonight Show. Jimmy Fallon & Co. have decamped to Los Angeles this week, and to celebrate he parodied the Fresh Prince of Bell Air’s opening credits last night. The spirited tribute is a nearly shot for shot recreation of the opening of the classic Will Smith sitcom, and even features appearances from Alfonso Ribeiro and DJ Jazzy Jeff. The Tonight Show called Los Angeles home from 1972 until last Feb. when Fallon’s reign as host began.
