“Can you believe how big this thing has gotten?” – Broadway and 30 Rock star Cheyenne Jackson, speaking to Neil Patrick Harris while both were in their underwear in their gym’s locker room.

Bobby Jindal’s much lampooned response to Barack Obama’s speech has been compared to Jack McBrayer’s Kenneth The Page character on NBC’s 30 Rock. Last night on Jimmy Fallon’s new show, McBrayer responded to the response as Kenneth. (You’ll have to sit through a commercial first. Annoying.)
