"If it ain't on Leno, it didn't happen." Sure, bloggers have blogged about it, the dead-tree media have gone on and on, the local TV news has flogged it to death, but it is not really news until Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, Jimmy Fallon, or Trevor Noah has taken notice. This carries over to the in-show universes. How do you show President Bartlet's actions are getting a lot of press? Get Jay Leno to guest star on The West Wing and do a Show Within a Show mention of it. For slightly older shows or movies, Larry King may be substituted. Even older ones used Johnny Carson, and further back you'd get Jack Paar or even Milton Berle. For news reports, see the Sister Trope Newscaster Cameo. Often part of a News Monopoly. Occasionally overlaps with Colbert Bump. See also Talk Show Appearance for characters appearing on a talk show in general. Examples |

An interesting variation happened in an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: Will comes up with the idea of taking pictures of "Celebrity Houses At Night" so he can compile into a book of the same name (seriously). However, an unscrupulous editor takes a photo of Jay Leno pouring coffee down a drain, claims he's actually pouring oil and polluting the environment and sells it under Will's name. Naturally, Leno sues Will for millions of dollars. You expect this whole thing to be resolved without Leno actually showing up... until Will, with his characteristic nerve, manages to trick his way into appearing on The Tonight Show to set the record straight. After he does so and tries to stay for the following guest interview, he suddenly gets thrown out of the studio in the exact same manner as Jazz is thrown out of the Banks' house. Leno appears again in the next season, after Hilary books a juror that Philip dismissed to appear on her talk show — who promptly went on a tirade about him on the air — to poke fun at the situation. |

Featured Tracy appearing on Late Night With Conan O'Brien in order to hype his addition to the cast of Show Within a Show The Girlie Show. However, it is strongly implied that the event is not considered noteworthy at all — the Tracy character is a washed-up movie star, and The Girlie Show is unpopular. Instead, the appearance is the result of (in-universe) Executive Meddling by Jack, who wants Late Night to promote a low-rated NBC show. This has since become a regular habit of Jack, as he frequently meddles with NBC's The Today Show to make them promote whomever, or whatever, he wants. | |

There's an episode of Shark where a Serial Killer who escapes justice publishes an OJ-esque book about how he successfully defended himself against James Woods' prosecuting attorney character. The killer appears on Larry King Live to hype his book. Larry is portrayed fairly well, as he happens to be a friend of Woods' character, and he accuses his guest, pointblank, of being a Serial Killer. | |

Caprica does this despite being set a long time ago in a star system far away through the clever use of Expies. Baxter Sarno (played by Patton Oswalt) is made out to be a cross between Jay Leno and Jon Stewart. He combines the former's comedy format with the latter's cutting insight, tendency to bring down Very Powerful People. He is mentioned as "tearing a new one" out of the Caprican Minister of Commerce. The target demographic is also similar: "a majority of college students get most of their news from Sarno".There's also a number of TV-montages which frequently feature "clips" of Sarno. In the clips Expies of CNBC and CNN are featured prominently, usually commenting on Graystone Industries' latest woes. | |

In Contact, shortly after the message from the aliens is revealed to the world, Leno is shown making a joke about it. This film also featured sitting president Bill Clinton as himself. Clinton's appearances were actually spliced (rather expertly) from speeches on real-life issues, and he wasn't particularly happy about his "appearance" in the film. CNN Anchor Bernie Shaw was also in the film. Leno's segment was taken from a section of monologue about the discovery of extinct single-celled life forms on Mars, which occurred around the time the film was being made. | |

30 Rock: Featured Tracy appearing on Late Night With Conan O'Brien in order to hype his addition to the cast of Show Within a Show The Girlie Show. However, it is strongly implied that the event is not considered noteworthy at all — the Tracy character is a washed-up movie star, and The Girlie Show is unpopular. Instead, the appearance is the result of (in-universe) Executive Meddling by Jack, who wants Late Night to promote a low-rated NBC show. This has since become a regular habit of Jack, as he frequently meddles with NBC's The Today Show to make them promote whomever, or whatever, he wants. Two seasons later, Tracy appears on Larry King Live during the stock market crash and incites citywide panic while discussing places to hide money. |

Referenced, sort of, in The West Wing. Leno guest-appeared as himself at a Hollywood fundraiser/party for the President, and C.J. specifically went over to thank him for going easy on Leo's recently-revealed drug problem. Leno deflects the thanks, saying that the White House gives him monologue material every night anyway, and continues that it would be really great if the President could ride his bicycle into a tree again, because that's his bread and butter... Referenced again in the seventh-season episode "Welcome to Wherever You Are". Part of the episode deals with Congressman (and presidential cadidate) Matt Santos' upcoming appearance on The Tonight Show and his staff trying to avoid making the congressman look either silly or hackneyed on the show. |

Ben 10: Ultimate Alien does one better with Will Harangue, violent right-wing mouthpiece who becomes integral to the show arc. Everything he says claims that Ben 10 is a menace and a threat to the Earth, despite proof that he's always saving it. When aliens finally take over the world en mass force in Ben 10: Omniverse, he's the first to jump ship and convince the people he was right. This came back to bite on the ass as later episodes showed his ratings have declined. | |

Doctor Who: The show has done this a few times over the years. A 1966 serial had both Kenneth Kendall and Dwight Whylie reporting on a robot rampage, and a 1972 serial had Alex Macintosh reporting on an equally fictional peace conference. "The Stolen Earth": Paul O'Grady made a brief appearance, making bad jokes about the situation (though this may have been a very deliberate attempt to reduce panic rather than him acting of his own accord). In "The Wedding of River Song", Bill Turnbull and Sian Williams interview Charles Dickens, who is discussing his new story idea about ghosts, and the past, present and future. In "The Power of Three", Alan Sugar from the British version of The Apprentice challenges his interns to sell as many of the mysterious black boxes as they can. Russell T. Davies loved this. In "Aliens of London", the Doctor flips through channels and, in addition to the Newscaster Cameos, sees Matt Baker on Blue Peter making a cake shaped like the alien ship. In "Army of Ghosts", we have the "ghosts" somehow written into the plot of EastEnders, and celebrity medium Derek Acorah off Most Haunted complaining that he's obsolete. Steven Moffat has taken it international. In "The Wedding of River Song", Today cohost Meredith Vieira reports on the return of the Holy Roman Empire. |

Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 has kind of an unusual example. In the universe of the film, The Blair Witch Project still exists as a movie, but unlike in real life, there's apparently no conclusive evidence as to whether it was a found footage film or a real documentary. To establish this, the opening has a montage of real life (if somewhat out-of-context) clips of the first movie being mentioned by Kurt Loder on MTV News and Conan O'Brien on Late Night, as well as being reviewed by Siskel & Ebert. | |

She sees Dick Cavett interview Zsa Zsa Gabor, then abruptly transform into Freddy and attack her.

Breaking Bad: In the penultimate episode of the series, Walter White's former friends and cofounders of Grey Matter, Gretchen and Elliot Schwartz, appear on Charlie Rose after Walt's identity as the drug lord Heisenberg has been revealed to the world, to deny that Walt had any hand in the research and founding of Grey Matter. When Walt sees this on TV, he becomes furious, and this is what snaps him out of his Despair Event Horizon and influences him to return to Albuquerque to tie up loose ends. | |
