Unlike a lot of Jimmy Fallon's fake TV shows he purportedly starred in with guests before they were famous, "Point Pleasant Police Department" on Thursday's Tonight Show looks like it was fun to film. The guest is Bill Hader, Fallon's old Saturday Night Live colleague, and the joke is that they were cops who ate food while saying a lot of P-words in close proximity to each other. They don't even really try to keep up the pretense, but they do take the spit-take to a whole new level of art. And as they laugh at each other, you'll probably laugh along. Peter Weber
