How is this show still on the air? It has been on ABC for over a year and hasn't gotten better at all. The Chevy Chase show wasn't this bad and it only lasted 5 weeks. JKL is worse than Craig Kilborn- and that is b-a-d.
If you're hoping for some laughter and entertaining and fun banter at bedtime, you won't find it here. His political views are so boring. It's like he's kicking a dead horse night after night after night. We stopped watching a couple years ago. God, how we miss Johnny...is anybody even close??
Jimmy Kimmel is the opposite of all those things. He's just a guy who attaches himself to funny things and people and somehow they are associated with him. And then he got political and he's not even articulate and intelligent enough to convince anyone of things that they may even agree with. I like Mean Tweets and Guillermo but that's other people on his show. Watch the Eric Andre Show.
We just went to see Jimmy Kimmel Live last night(2-24-05) and we thought it was great ! Very professional production. Didn't have to wait in line very long, like some other tapings. Security was good also.
As far as the show is concerned - I think it is just as funny as its competitors. The Cousin Sal bits are hilarious. Uncle Frank is a really nice guy too ! If you are in the area, I would suggest getting tickets.
The audience isn't very large. Only about 100 people. The Band is great and the sound system is superb.
I hat this 10 line rule. Again, I think this is a great hour of late night television.
Jimmy. U r such a pleasure to listen to!!! Laughter is the best medicine and u provide the best prescription!! Please don't ever leave us and try to realize what a positive impact u have made on us during a very difficult time when humor and hope are a thing of the past.
