I just saw Ross the intern (or is it Rosie O'donnell's feminine alter ego?) on The Today show where he proceeded to say red sequins works for him and gushed all over Matt Lauer.
I don't watch Leno so had never seen him before.
He's a hoot!! Anyone else think he's a riot? I loved it when Lauer said he'd "never been called BOYISH before."

I was rather humored by Ross the Intern the last couple of weeks. He definitely lets it all hang out and is totally himself. I think his segments have been really funny. I give him big kudos for taking advantage of this opportunity. What a deal for him.
And I would love to have the chance to drool on Matt just once. He is a hottie.

Ross is so gay and so funny and so flaming, but so damn funny that I can't NOT watch when he is on. The night where he visited the country houses was VERY funny.

I've actually suffered through Leno's monologues the past two weeks JUST so I could see Ross the Intern. The guy is sidesplittingly funny! He had borrowed Katie's fuzzy white sweater this morning and wore it all through his interview. My favorite segment of his the past two weeks was when he went figure skating with Tara Lipinski and wore something that looked like a sequined, lavender matador outfit.

There isn't enough money in the world to make me watch Leno.
If Ross ever shows up on Letterman, let me know.

Ross was on one last time tonight showing his "Today" experience from this morning. He is such a hoot. He wore these red earmuffs that matched the lip color he had on. I think Jay called him "fetching". I was rolling on the floor when Katie handed him her furry vest. You can tell she took a shine to him.

Thanks to this thread, I tuned in to Ross the Intern for the first time tonight. Oh my God, I peed my pants!! The guy is too damn funny!! I'm glad I caught him this once, but so bummed I missed the last two weeks. Hopefully Jay can find a new gig for him soon.
Yeah, Katie seemed to totally groove on the guy. Ross definitely brought out the Camp Princess in Katie. My favorite bit is when she tells him he can keep the feather-boa-ish vest. He flips up the collar and gushes, "Mean it?!" And she deadpans, "No."

Like I said, I only managed to watch Ross on the today show per I don't watch Leno. So did he ever interview any of the athletes? I'm assuming he did.
What was his reaction to some of the hunkier athletes like the bobsledders or speedskaters? Enough with the tease-do of the mnale figure skaters already (he called Tomothy Goebel barbra streisand's love child because of his hair)
I would pay money to see him gushing over some beefy norwegian or italian skier

Most of his Leno pieces were things like him going around to the individual country hospitality houses and chatting with people, trying the food, etc. Imagine the impression he gave them of what American men are like. He did interview David Pelletier and Jamie Sale one night. He told them their program was wonderful but would have been even better if they had worn red sequins instead of "that drab gray." He and Jamie got along fine; Pelletier seemed amused, but maybe just a tad uncomfortable.
