Honest Trailers and Jimmy Kimmel Live Win Streamy Awards

This past weekend, The annual Streamy Awards honoring anything and everything that you can stream online (though they seem to want to avoid overlapping with The Emmys too much) announced their winners for this year.

Those winners included Screen Junkies’ web series Honest Trailers for Best Writing and Jimmy Kimmel Live’s Mean Tweets for Best Collaboration. In addition to this win, both were up for Emmys this year as well.

We can only see this awards show getting bigger as streaming because more tied-into how you watch anything that you watch on a screen.

Over the last couple of years, Eddie Murphy has publicly mulled over a return to stand-up, but would always add the caveat of not knowing exactly what he would do since comedy has changed so much since he last took the mic.

Yet, this dead-on impression of Tracy Morgan that he did during his recent appearance of Kimmel might be a good place to start.

What would a late night appearance with Bob Odenkirk be without a goof or two? It wouldn’t be anything we’ve seen or heard of for sure.

His appearance last night on Jimmy Kimmel was certainly on brand in this regard as Bob talked about being put up in a supposed Emmy Village where Emmy nominees live.

Watch and enjoy here.

Hillary Clinton to Visit Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday August 22nd

Hillary Clinton to Visit Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday August 22nd

Given how Trump has been flailing in his controversy baiting campaign strategy ever since the conventions wrapped, this very well could be a crucial appearance for Hillary Clinton.

Even though it’s a late night talk show that engages in pranks that are seemingly on the whole country including having Donald Trump on the program, Hillary can (and hopefully will) distance herself in poll numbers, especially if she comes off as genuine as transparent about her campaign.

Danny McBride stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live last night to promote Vice Principals and shared a story from his childhood wherein he completely fabricated his skills as a skateboarder.

You can actually see some influence for his beloved TV series and movies from this story of how McBride got away with being a ‘total poser’.

Though Hollywood party stories are well trodden territory for late night, a great story is still a great story no matter how familiar the setting.

Such is the case with Jim Jefferies doing a private gig with celebrities present, then having a night he will never forget with Al Pacino as well as Warren Beatty in the background. It’s a classic Hollywood party story through and through.

He told the story in full on last night’s Kimmel.

We have a feeling that the Jimmys of late night will be battling well beyond 2019.

As part of ABC’s Upfronts presentation, the network announced Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Kimmel Live will remain at ABC through Fall of 2019. The other Jimmy in late night, Fallon, has his contract currently extended through 2021. However Kimmel and Fallon are the current top ratings winners and that, for now, should keep them going in the late night arena for quite some time.

In doing the rounds to promote their upcoming film Keanu, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live last night.

Of course, they chatted about how emotional the end of Key & Peele was and what it was like working on their new feature length film together. They also discussed what it was like going on a walking ghost tour with Wu Tang Clan member Method Man, which could have been a sketch all by itself.

Matt Damon Does His Darndest (Including Some Help from Ben Affleck) to Get on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Nothing quite summons the performer out of Jimmy Kimmel quite like his on-going bit of continuing to postpone Matt Damon from being a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Their latest quarrel came after The Oscars when Damon got the closest he’s ever gotten to being on the show without kidnapping Jimmy.

Even as an Oscar nominee, Matt Damon had to sneak into the background of another interview and ask a huge favor from Ben Affleck to make it on to Kimmel’s post-Oscars show.

May the “war” between Damon and Kimmel continue forever so Damon cameos at Kimmel like this one will keep happening.

During his stop on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, Adam Scott wanted to share the joy he’s gotten from his new dog so much that he brought his dog onto the show.

Apparently, his dog has many features that resemble the comedian and actor Steve Agee, which undoubtedly contributes to why Adam loves his new dog.

We’re glad to see that Jimmy Kimmel Live is continuing to have more stand-up as of late as well as featuring the comedic stylings of someone we’ve been a fan of for quite some time like Byron Bowers.

You’ll never think about museums dedicated to the Civil Rights Movement the same way after watching Byron’s set.

Last week, Nathan Fielder unveiled the billboard to promote the new, upcoming season of his show Nathan For You. The billboard had such a striking resemblance to a billboard from NBC’s The Blacklist that any and all that saw it took it as parody.

However, while on last night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, Fielder stresses in every which way he can that he’s not ripping off The Blacklist billboard.

It’s all just more genius meta level marketing from Nathan, which is probably the best reason for you tuning to the season 3 premiere on Comedy Central this Thursday at 10PM.

Bob Odenkirk would never leave a TV appearance hanging without a bit.

So, when Jimmy Kimmel asked him to play a made-up fun game that’s really popular on talk shows these days, Bob decided that’s not going to fly with him. It’s almost like he’s poking fun of another late night host who does a bunch of games whose name is also Jimmy.

Watch Bob refuse to play ‘Heatherball’ here.

“Jimmy Kimmel Live“ to Return to Brooklyn for a Week of Shows When Colbert and Fallon Aren’t Taping

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

With The Late Show with Stephen Colbert nearly capping off the beginning of this new era of late night, there is going to be, once again, jockeying for position.

On the week of Oct. 19th, Jimmy Kimmel will do another week of Jimmy Kimmel Live in Brooklyn, which has been cleverly timed for a week where The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and The Tonight Starring Jimmy Fallon will have taken the week off.

With such a move, you can only wonder if he’ll do remote segments around 30 Rock or The Ed Sullivan Theater.

Either way, Kimmel should have a much easier trip this time around as a hurricane probably won’t have just happened.

Stopping by to promote the new season of Maron, which starts tonight, Marc Maron chatted with Jimmy Fallon about opposite ends of the heckler/troll spectrum that comedians have come to deal with in this era of comedy.

First off, Marc had to delicately eal with a whole family including their baby being in the crowd at a show that he wasn’t aware was all ages.

Then, on the other end, Marc went to great lengths to get back at someone trolling on him Twitter. How far? How about casting someone in your show so you can tell a story about it on late night?

So, if we’re all lucky, Hannibal Buress will get to do things like this on his Comedy Central series Why?

While on his Comedy Camisado tour, Buress opted to stay a little bit longer in Austin, TX to not only appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live, but also see if he could drum poorly for some band during their SXSW set.

Luckily, Speedy Ortiz obliged Hannibal on their last song.

With Gibberish Rap and this drumming performance, Hannibal might accidentally have a musical career like Jennifer Lawrence with that Hunger Games song.

This week, Jimmy Kimmel is back in Austin, TX for SXSW taping Jimmy Kimmel Live. Not only is Kimmel is making sure to visit more of Austin sights, but making sure both the world and the Greater Austin area know about them.

After asking for submissions by local Austin businesses if they wanted to be part of making a local TV spot, Jimmy Kimmel picked video rental store Vulcan Video (seems like Austin’s version of Cinefile or Vidiots) and enlisted Matthew McConaughey to make a very “local style” ad.

It’s not necessarily a who-live-to-tell-the-tale experience when guests do a segment on The Eric Andre Show, but host Eric Andre certainly makes a point of putting anyone who comes on the show through the ringer to a degree where some folks walk out and never speak of it again.

Jimmy Kimmel, however, knew what he was in for.

Jimmy Kimmel was a recent guest on The Eric Andre Show and revisited his experience, which he was game for, while on his own non-parody of a talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live with Eric Andre himself.

Also, if you wondering, here’s the full clip of Jimmy’s visit to The Eric Andre Show.
