The Tonight Show star debuted his and Short's impressive imaginary former soap, Tensions, on Thursday, Nov. 5, in a clip which saw the two of them playing opposite each other in the role of husband and wife.
Fallon played the male role, with Short taking the part of his long-suffering, frustrated wife. "There were no women in Hollywood at that time," Short explained to the audience as he discussed the show with Fallon.
