Fallon scored another slam dunk. Cue the Wednesday night highlight reel:

The Cast of 30 Rock Plays Charades

Jimmy Fallon was joined by the principal cast of 30 Rock for a Late Night game of charades. Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey and Jack McBrayer squared off against Tracy Morgan, Jane Krakowski and Fallon. With a set comprised of two couches facing away from the studio audience, the result was an uncommonly intimate (and hilarious) charades session with one of the best casts on television.

The About Time Award

News flash: Newt Gingrich is officially dropping out of the presidential race, thus clearing the way for Mitt Romney and President Obama. Now that the GOP finally have a candidate, who do you think will be Romney's running mate? I hope it's Newt -- the race just wouldn't be the same without him.
