OK, I don't love Kimmel's show, but the parodies of network
TV/mediain the opening monologue do hit the funny bone a bit.
If anyone else thinks their local ABC affiliate pasted over
a part of Kimmel's show, PLEASE do post.

Sorry, I don't watch Kimmel, I dislike him strongly as the next devolution in Letterman-style grinning-nihilist shtick.

The only feature of broadcast television I dislike more intensely than Kimmel's face (absent the sudden appearance of old movies featuring Barbra Streisand, Woody Allen, or Tony Franciosa) is that old dude's phony-pholksy voice-over during Whataburger commercials, which cause me to fly across the room to change channels whenever I hear it.

We're talking major irritant here.

Sorry, man -- but I'd be interested to hear whether the Mouse's favorite TV property censored him.

Come on, VOA. We all know networks don't censor anything. They believe in free speech.

Might have been a local thing. I was able to view his bit in its entirety. He said something about the Muslims protesting a cartoon, then they showed rioters with signs, that had been changed to say things like...down with family Circus, death to Billy and Jeffy. Not real funny. He did a similar bit yesterday, only the signs said something about Marmaduke. Hope this helps.

No interruption in Denver.

The joke with the protest signs ran last night in LA without interruption. I'll check tonight. Also, I get the network feed repeated tomorrow at 11am (I work like a dog for the mouse) so I'll check that.

JK is funny, I think, but his best contribution to society is from the "Man Show" and it's this: "Girls jumping on trampolines"

I remember when my wife turned to me and asked..."why?...." and I explained that it's because, there are girls...and...they're jumping...on trampolines! That cleared it right up for her.

Atlanta ABC affiliate doesn't play Jimmy Kimmel's show at all.

However, yesterday on Brit Humes' Special Report, they ended the show with a replay of Kimmel's bit on the Arab street up in arms (literally) because of a cartoon. They cut to photoshop images of Muslims holding signs declaring "Marmaduke isn't funny".
