Ok.....have said this quite a few times before.....Jimmy Kimmel is one of the BEST ALL TIME TV HOSTS.....EVER!!!!

I guess the set up, guests come out, I hope they talk to his side kick Giremo, and then they sit down with Jimmy, and he finds out stuff we never knew about this “star”. He is just the best interviewer!!!! He lets them talk, DOESN’T INTERRUPT, finds out stuff, and genuinely ENJOYS THEM. He’s been doing this for 20 years……..I’m sure he’s gonna quit soon, and damn it, I’m gonna miss him.

really gives a shit who his guests are, cause he ALWAYS DOES THE ONE UPMANSHIP with them. Ya know, the guest says something, and Steve says something to “top” the guests remark. Ugh….. Stephen is just not cut out for interviewing. He needs his old show back…..ya know on Comedy Central. He’s NOT A TV TALK SHOW HOST. Oh, and JMHO.
