wtf

Among other messages Sanz allegedly sent include one saying that he would “swear on a stack of improv books … I’m a different person,” that he was “very immature and had very limited sexual awareness,” and that he “wasn’t really thinking. But I really didn’t do that with others. It was a f***ing big mistake. I’m very sorry. If you want to metoo me you have every right. Just believe me I’m not like that anymore.”

I'm close to his age at the time of the alleged conduct, and christ. Can't imagine thinking any of that would be ok. Lot of inadequacy issues there that should have been sorted out in therapy and not with an underage fanclub.

Curious the fallout of this on Fallon given his proximity to the situation.

I can't see anything happening to Fallon unless there's something insanely damning out there.

If all of Fallon’s professional career isn’t enough to get him cancelled I don’t want to know what it would take.

Doesn't look great for him, from the article:

quote:

The woman is suing both Sanz and NBC and SNL Studios, alleging that the latter two entities were aware of the actor’s behavior toward her, and that multiple employees both knew she was underage, and drinking, at these parties. (Fallon is called out by name as knowing she was a junior in high school while she was drinking in his company.)

We'll see where it goes I guess

Unless there are self-implicating texts from Fallon too, or this prompts someone else to come forward with a story about him, I think his part in it will mostly get swept under the rug.

I can see when you are lying.

From how I read it, Fallon seemed like he was concerned, but also not gonna be the guy who stops a party and says, "You're 16??!? That's ILLEGAL! STOP THE PARTY! WE MUST DO OUR DUTY AND GET THIS CHILD OUT OF THIS HORRIBLE, CORRUPTING ENVIRONMENT!"

Instead he asks her about her SATs. It seems like he's trying to be nice. He's not Horatio (allegedly) telling hosed up sex stories or whatever.

I'm not a fan of Fallon but I do recognize that he seems like a genuinely good guy, and to be where he's at with his act I assume you'd have to be pretty politically astute.

I ran into Fallon when I was in college at the on-campus hotel after he had done done some show. He just had a horrible case of the giggles and was wobbling around and had a towel or hoodie over his head. Some college girls were trying to get him to come to a party and his very sober bodyguard/talent manager or whoever was basically lecturing “No, gently caress all this, Jimmy, drink water and go to your room, and go to sleep, I’m so sick of your poo poo,” while telling the women to go away.

I don’t really know what that says about him other than he was a mess and could not stop giggling.

Weird choice to make it sound like Fallon would have been a crazy rear end in a top hat to stop his friend from feeding drinks to a teenager he was grooming.

My only Fallon story was seeing him at a college bar surrounded by women the whole time and then leaving with three of them, so I guess that was pre-bodyguard. He was still in his 20's so legit who could blame him there.

Not a crazy rear end in a top hat, but he's the kind of guy who wouldn't ever want to appear to be the crazy rear end in a top hat to the people around him, particularly those higher on the food chain. He's not one to make waves, I'm saying.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



Remember when Fallon got so drunk he degloved his loving hand and spent like half a year on TV with a ball of bandages for a fist trying to explain it in a way that didn’t give up that he’s a functioning alcoholic

There's also that clip of him introducing a band on The Tonight Show and he's very obviously pissed out of his loving gourd, but I can't find it right now.

I think Scott was bang on the money when he said he thinks she literally just thought of a funny name and that was it, it's a method that always leads to great times afterall.

At this point the fact that she uses a similar accent for every character is hilarious and endearing.

Another thing I like is when they tear into an extremely basic parody. Just thinking about Drew Tarver's Roger Peculiar, The Goose Tycoon cracks me up.

It could just be that a bunch of eps had already been recorded before the allegations were made, but even so, you'd think they'd take note of that and maybe edit it again
