================

While Taylor Swift fans were surely happy to see her, Sunday’s “SNL 40” special provided two sources of disappointment.

It neither featured a musical performance nor a comedy bit tailored to Swift’s particular personality, skill set and comedic sensibility.

Tuesday’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” does not address the musical performance concern, but it does give Swift a chance to more successfully drive audience laughter.

Swift appears as the lead guest on Tuesday’s edition of NBC’s successful late night show. In addition to sitting down with host Jimmy Fallon for an interview, Swift also takes part in a “Jumbotron Dancer” sketch.

Taped Tuesday, the episode then welcomes an appearance by John Oliver and a musical performance by Imagine Dragons.
