and an opening monologue, similar to other late night shows such as Late Night with Conan O'Brien and Late Show with David Letterman. In February 2005, with the new format, the show traveled to Jacksonville, Florida to tape a special episode of the show aired on the Fox Broadcasting Company, as a part of Fox Sports' pregame coverage of Super Bowl XXXIX. The special's title was changed to The Best Darn Super Bowl Road Show, Period ("Darn" being substituted for "Damn") so it would not offend network executives or viewers.

The show counted down its Top 100 moments of Best Damn history.
