Los Angeles ? Jimmy Fallon has the perfect perspective for his role as the host of “The 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.”

Jimmy Fallon, center, host of the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards, is joined by John Shaffner, left, Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Chairman and CEO, and the show’s executive producer Don Mischer at Emmy Awards Press Preview Day on Wednesday at Nokia Theater in Los Angeles. The annual awards show will be held at Nokia Theater on Sunday.

“You just want to keep them moving and keep it fast and tight. And so I think we’re all with the same goal in mind — even the people in the crowd. There’s just like, ‘OK. I already lost. Let’s get this over with.’ I want to keep it moving and keep it fresh and fun and respectful too,” says the “SNL” alumnus and talk show host.

Fallon calls being the ringmaster for the salute to TV’s best a dream job because the show is watched by millions and he can make fun of his peers — to their faces. He’s no rookie to award shows, having done a stint as host of the “2005 MTV Movie Awards.”

What makes him giddy as a “gleek” at a Chris Colfer sighting in this past TV season?

“It is a crazy good year for TV with the new shows like ‘Modern Family’ and ‘Glee’ and ‘Parks and Rec,’ Fallon says. “And then the old shows going away, ‘Law & Order,’ ’24,’ ‘Lost.”‘

Fallon has got some guilty pleasures when it comes to TV. He loves all of Bravo’s “Housewives of …” shows and “Jersey Shore.”

“Don’t tell me what happened. I missed it last night,” he says.

Fallon doesn’t want to reveal too much about Sunday’s Emmy telecast, but he hints there will be a Twitter element and that “Glee” has had an affect on the awards show. Translation: Look for musical numbers.
