The real truth is there haven’t been any “COMEDIANS” in the last 30 or 40 years.
Red Skelton, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Sid Ceaser, Carol Burnett, jack Benny, Milton Berle, Phyllis Diller, Joan Rivers, Don Rickles, Burns & Allen, etc.
Those people could make you laugh without pornographic language or disgusting racial crap.
I don’t include Jerry Lewis because I never thought acting just plain stupid was funny.
Red Skelton leads my list because he could make me laugh just by walking out on stage and smiling at you.

As with all proggies, Kimmel is not a forward thinker. Unthinking of the logical consequences his actions.

He’s now in a catch-22 turd pool — he lost half his audience beating up on Trump & conservatives, and he’ll now lose the other half by no longer going there.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Since I don’t watch network TV and haven’t for several years, the last thing he did that I actually saw some of was the Man Show.

Literally the only thing I’ve watched on Network TV in at least 6 or 7 years is live college football broadcasts.

Don’t even care. ABC is Disney. Disney just announced it will no longer have “Night of Joy”, as time set aside for Christ followers to worship and praise and sing and testify to the truth of the Gospel at their Orlando parks.

Yet, Disney just started marketing homosexual celebrating mouse ears.

I am done.

Totally agreed. The more they show their true selves the better.

Maybe he is saying it’s the last upfront (whatever that means) of the Trump era because he expects Trump to be removed from office within a year...right after the Democrats take control of the House and push through impeachment.

Did none of you listen to Rush this week? Every since he dined with Trump he has been in the groove.

Did you notice Rush is posting his podcasts on YouTube, the complete shows minus the commercials. What a deal, these were previously only available to 24/7 members.

Dean Martin Roasts are on YouTube as well. George Carlin did an HBO special one time where he came on stage and just stood and looked around until the audience was rolling in the isles, never said a word. That was maybe 40 years ago. I remember him best as the Hippy Dippy Weather Man.

“No one knows what “up fronts” are.”

I think it involves a jar of Vasoline.

Didn't even know what they were until this thread. Still not quite sure.

I don’t care. He can do nothing but Trump jokes the rest of his life or not do another single one and I wouldn’t care either way. I will forever oppose him or anything he supports with total indifference. If he comes on the tv I will change the channel. If he asks for a donation to a good cause I won’t (until it can be done separately from his request). If he were on fire and only needed me to pee on him I would hold it until I got home.

There’s some funny comedians out there: Jim Gaffigan, Jim Brewer, Colin Quinn, Craig Ferguson, Norm McDonald and Dennis Miller, to name a few.

I haven’t considered that side.
I shall become more tolerant of lil’ jimmy.
Instead of being disgusted, I will laugh when he cries.
