===Other film and television appearances=== After an August 2001 appearance on ''[[The Tonight Show with Jay Leno]]'' to promote ''Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back'', Smith returned to the show for monthly segments as a correspondent. The "Roadside Attractions" segments featured him traveling to places around the country, including [[Howe Caverns]] in upstate New York and the [[Pike Place Fish Market]] in [[Seattle]]. At least 12 of these segments were aired, and Smith regularly appeared on the program to introduce the pre-taped pieces. Five of the segments were also included on the ''[[Jersey Girl (2004 film)|Jersey Girl]]'' DVD. Smith appeared in the 2006 [[mtvU]] show ''[[Sucks Less with Kevin Smith]]''. The show gives college students ideas for things to do on the weekends. In 2006, Smith guest reviewed on ''[[At the Movies with Ebert & Roeper|Ebert & Roeper]]'', in place of [[Roger Ebert]], who was recovering from [[thyroid cancer]] treatment. These spots were notable for the arguments between Smith and [[Richard Roeper]] over certain films, with Smith often citing Roeper's negative review of ''Jersey Girl'' to discredit his review of the film at hand. On one appearance, Smith compared [[Craig Brewer]]'s ''[[Black Snake Moan (film)|Black Snake Moan]]'' to the works of [[William Faulkner]]. Smith was featured as one of the interview subjects in ''[[This Film Is Not Yet Rated]]'', a 2006 documentary about the [[Motion Picture Association of America]]'s process of rating films. Smith discussed how ''[[Jersey Girl (2004 film)|Jersey Girl]]'' receiving an R rating, on the basis of a conversation two characters in that film have about masturbation, which MPAA head [[Joan Graves]] told Smith she would not feel comfortable having her 16-year-old daughter watching. Smith's response was to question whether Graves' daughter had not already masturbated or learned about masturbation, arguing that his film was not teaching 16-year-olds anything they did not already know.<ref>''[[This Film Is Not Yet Rated]]''.
