Thursday night is a very special night, folks. Hero for the everyman, Jimmy Kimmel, will broadcast his 1000th piece-of-shit episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live from the historic Freemason's Temple in Hollywood!I am proud to say that I have not seen one single episode during the five-year run. Incidentally, this broadcast will make Jimmy Kimmel Live (which is not live, by the way, but taped an hour before airing) the longest-running late-night talk show on ABC since The Dick Cavett Show in the '70s. I would venture this is indicative of the poor taste of ABC creative executives that over a thirty-year period, they have found no suitable competition to Carson, Letterman, Leno, etc. The same poor taste that led them to choose to give Jimmy Kimmel his own talk show.
En garde!
How do you look yourself in the mirror when you know the thing you are most famous for is your girlfriend claiming to have had sex with Matt Damon? And that the thing you are second-most-famous for is that YOU claimed to have had sex with Ben Affleck? Obviously, I know they are both jokes--I'm not an idiot--but still...that has to set some sort of record for 'depressing statistics among television personalities.'
Jimmy Kimmel, please fade into obscurity in the near future. If you do, I'll give you a donut!
