Jason Bateman returned to the late night circuit last night to continue hawking The Switch, even if that meant criticizing the odd marketing choices made by the studio. Meanwhile, Eli "Bear Jew" Roth outed Martin Brest as an insensitive director to his stand-ins, Anna Paquin introduced George Lopez to the "sn*tch patch," David Duchovny celebrated an Ecuadorian holiday and Stephen Colbert celebrated an airline hero.
5. Anna Paquin on Sex and Snoop
Anna Paquin stopped by Lopez Tonight to talk about the True Blood porn flick, the special wardrobe piece needed for her sex scenes and Snoop Dogg's video tribute to her.
4. About That Time Martin Brest Fired Eli Roth
Jay Leno managed to tease out a story about the time a pre-Basterds Eli Roth was savagely let go by a film director.
3. Duchovny on Ecuadorian Holidays
Craig Ferguson's first-ever Late Late Show guest, David Duchovny, returned to the CBS program last night to celebrate Ecuadorian Independence Day and hawk The Joneses DVD.
2. More Arrested Development Hope
Jason Bateman's Switch promotional duties led him to the Daily Show last night where the actor discussed his parenting secrets, his latest movie posters and the (very, very hopeful) shooting window of the Arrested Development movie.

1. The Airline Alpha Dog
Stephen Colbert honored Steven Slater -- a.k.a. the JetBlue flight attendant who swore at a passenger, grabbed beer from the plane galley and slid off the aircraft via an emergency chute -- as the Alpha Dog of the Week last night. Now who wants to wager how long it will take late-night producers to start booking Slater a la Sully Sullenberger.
