It really is amazing he hasn't been outright cancelled for his role in the man show by now.


Not really. If you fully accept and love big brother you wont get cancelled

I'll always be shocked he was the one who hit the big time, instead of Carolla.


I would argue with that a bit. I think it is much more successful to have Corolla's 1 Million Podcast audience that pulling 1.7 on a network TV show.

Really enjoyed him on the man show back in the day. Other than that he’s trash.


He was a great Roast Comedian. His Flavor Flav Roast performance was fricking legendary and I’m surprised no Woke SJW hasn’t brought it up yet. Adam Carolla said that Jimmy was banned from the Comedy Central Roasts for that performance, but I’m sure they’d have him back these days. It was these two jokes each told one after another.

Flavor Flav is responsible for more homeless black children than Hurricane Katrina.

Chris Benoit is a better father than Flavor Flav.


And this one was just funny:

Flavor Flav is so skinny and black that he looks like a Make-A-Wish Kid whose last request was to try on a wetsuit.

I think the last funny thing Kimmel did was embarrassing Leno on his own show during a Q and A segment calling him out on the Conan shite.


That was legendary and legitimately hilarious on every level. Leno asked him what’s the best prank Kimmel had ever pulled:

quote:

I think the best prank I ever pulled was I told a guy that 5 years from now I’m going to give you my show, and then when the 5 years came I gave it to him and took it back almost immediately.


It’s a shame he used to be really funny. Only celebrity I used to celebrate that has fallen harder is Howard Stern. Howard in the end became everything he hated: he became Don Imus.

It’s interesting how this happens to comedians as they move further left in their politics.

Jimmy has been asked to apologize for the Man Show, but he has said if they made that exact show today that it would be three times the hit it was back in the early 2000s and I think he is correct on that.

Jimmy Fallon has never been funny and his awkward fake laugh is the worst.


He has PTSD from from his days of distributing ammo during the Battle of the Bulge.

I watched most of it, bailed around the oscar part. That was awkward and not funny at all.

We have watched a man sell his soul. Hope it was worth it for him

He has made his career standing on the shoulders of more talented people.


Like when he was on "Win Ben Stein's Money" before The Man Show.
He was sort of the Ed McMahon to Ben Stein's Johnny Carson.

He seemed like a regular guy back then...Funny how money and progressivism change people.

Adam is arguably the most successful podcaster after Rogan

Look at how far he has come from Win Ben Stein‘s money. Were Ben was the straight guy and Jimmy was the wacky, edgy comic relief.

It’s crazy, but I’ve seen it time and time again where the “outsider“ comedian or personality ends up bending the knee.

Not unlike when Krusty the clown sold out to be a pitch man for Canyonero .

He cried about Cecil the Lion long before he got TDS. This predates Trump.

Only funny thing he’s ever done is when he did that fake snake bite bit like 15 years ago.

From Crank Yankers to the bullshite shite sandwich show he has now is an absolute disgrace.

We watch the local news and his show comes on before we can change the channel. We go to bed pissed off.

frick you Kimmel.

Not a Kimmel fan but I didn’t find anything particularly wrong with that monologue OTHER than the fact that he’s super nasally and nasally people are grating to listen to for long periods of time

Carolla > Kimmel


Agreed. I haven't listen to Carolla speak on his podcast in a while, but I always liked him. He's funny.

Outside of some of the roasts he was on, I never ever thought Kimmel was funny. Throw in his unbearable wokeness, he's just terrible.
