“Only two of the best picture movies made more than $100 million,” Kimmel said. “That’s not the point. We don’t make films for money. We make them to upset Mike Pence. Right?”

As I said elsewhere, Kimmel would shill for Charles Manson if he thought it'd improve his ratings situation.

From 2006 until he went full-commie, his ratings were flat, third amongst the three network late night talk shows. Meanwhile, those hosts moving left or seeming pro-Trump struck ratings gold and disaster, respectively:

Since using his child's medical condition to curry favor with other statists, Kimmel has made a horse race out of late night talk shows.

However, as stated in the aforementioned article, late night talk show hosts can go lefty to garner a temporal ratings bump, but they cannot avoid the inevitable:

All three late-night network shows have shed viewers in the 18-to-49 demographic over the last year

Jimmy Kimemel is the mayor of the third largest town on Melting Icebergville, and pretty soon he will be governing alongside Katie Couric in Hasbeendia. Enjoy the cash while you can.

I can’t help but hate uninformed morons like Jimmy Kimmel. I really can’t.

Was there ever a point in Kimmel’s life that he was even remotely funny?

I’ll check Monday on the gun control actors refusing to work on any more pictures featuring guns.

I saw maybe 10 minutes....
The WORST criticism for ANY show is that it is BORING.

AND, IT WAS.

Sad, I remember when the Oscar show was so glamorous,
everyone so elegant.

Me too!
Fond memories of my mom & I watching, commenting on the dresses & it used to be a good show, celebrating good movies.
Couldn’t pay me to watch Juggie Kimmel.

Kimmel has the kind of comedy where at best you don’t even smile. You for sure don’t laugh. You know, that kind of comedy where you just aren’t affected by it at all. His eye lift, hell, his shoes, are funnier than his lines.

All the studio execs and investors will be so happy to learn that Hollyweird “talent” doesn’t care if the product makes money anymore. Good way for these twits to go down the tubes, when no one wants to waste money making their movies anymore.

Let me guess. He said this from within the cozy confines protected by a heavily armed security detail.

The show is horrible. Unoriginal.

One of the funnier guys on this planet, Dave Chappelle, just spoke about unsung heroes who leave a comfortable life to fight for what they believe in. For other people. He is speaking of Justice Thurgood Marshall. What he and the academy of haters don’t dare think about is that President Trump is just such a man.

Actually, the network and the sponsors wanted this to be a non political event. As soon as the anti-Trump crap starts coming out, people change the channel. And this is verified by the Nielsen ratings.

“Over the course of this evening, I hope you will listen to many brave and outspoken supporters of movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp and never again, because what they’re doing is important,” Kimmel said. “Things are changing for the better, they’re making sure of that. It is positive change.”

Isn’t Kimmel best know for his sexist, frat boy style humor which exploits women? The hypocrisy and stupidity of these people knows no bounds. The sad thing is, we have made these idiots and degenerates richer than many of us will ever be.

Of course they want gun control. They’re traitors and paid shills of the Chicoms.

On a side note, I happened to go to Forest Lawn and some of the grave/shrines/memorials are amazing. I know a cemetery should not necessarily be a tour but it does show the greatness of America even if she is dimming.

#MeToo and #TimesUp

We need to start changing those hashtags to #NoMoreLikeBill or #NoMoreLikeHillary.
