Late Night Highlights: Letterman Kills a Cooking Segment While Sofia Vergara Kills Gerard Butler's Pride

Who cares about watching an unrecognizable chef toss up some scallops on a late-night show, even if Tom Cruise is there to laugh maniacally in the background? No one, which is why most Late Show viewers probably checked out before David Letterman joined Jamie Oliver for one of the most unfortunate cooking demos in recent memory last night. That segment, as well as the other highlights you missed last night while canceling your Discovery Communication channels, after the jump.

5. More Awkward Than an Awkward Pause

Most Late Late Show guests feel at ease with CBS's Scotsman host. But not Jay Baruchel, Ferguson's How to Train Your Dragon co-star, who rambled on about mobster cats, penis tattoos and snake piss just long enough to qualify the interview's awkward pause conclusion as the most enjoyable moment of the segment.

4. Janet Jackson and Jimmy Fallon on Cork Soaking

Unfortunately for Late Night producers, Janet Jackson was not game for a round of beer pong or pictionary, so Jimmy Fallon spent a few minutes overly-complimenting the actress/performer before throwing to a vintage SNL clip of the pair.

3. Cooking Segment Gone Awry

This is surely not what Jamie Oliver had in mind when he went on the Late Show to promote his Food Revolution. What started as a food demo quickly turned into an uncomfortable debate on obesity and supermarket cookies.

2. When Sofia Met Gerard

Last night, Jay Leno lucked out with two guests who had shared an uncomfortable exchange a few years ago and were willing to talk about it on his show. Without any further hesitation, Modern Family's Sofia Vergara and How to Train Your Dragon's Gerard Butler!

1. Ben Stiller Presents: Ireland

Unfortunately for the Greenberg star, his promotional duties coincided with St. Patrick's Day festivities at his daughter's school, where he gave a disastrous 30-minute presentation.
