Jimmy Kimmel is terrible


bombing hard

reply

He’s insufferable, I’ve disliked this guy for years, I really hope they don’t ask him back anymore.

reply

For a ceremony that keeps losing viewers each year, this won't help. Should have got Will Smith and Chris Rock to host it.

reply

Unfortunately Will Smith has been banned from the Oscars for 10 years lol

reply

Why don't they get someone likable like an actual Oscar winner like Tom Hanks?

reply

Because Tom Hanks is too busy finger poppin’ his own asshole.

reply

Hanks is an actor who can follow a script. A different skill set is needed for the Oscar's host. Comedians are funny, at ease in front of a large audience and can improvise a funny comeback if the need arises which is why they're usually hosts.

Anthony Anderson was a great host at the Emmys. He warned that his mother who was sitting near the front role would silence winners speaking too long - and she did! The classic TV scene theme which ran throughout the Emmys was entertaining, too.

Get someone like him to do the Emmys. Ellen Degeneres was great, too.

reply

Hanks could put on a performance. The Oscars are obsessed with song and dance numbers so I think Banks would be a good fit.

reply

It wasn't as bad as Jo Koy. But yeah, he's just boring as a host.

reply

He was like Billy Crystal compared to Jo Koy.

reply

But Jo Koy had very little time to prepare unlike Jimmy Kimmel. Kimmel just tried to make it like his late night show and he failed miserably just like his show.

Jimmy Kimmel Calls Out Greta Gerwig ‘Barbie’ Directing Snub:

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/jimmy-kimmel-greta-gerwig-barbie-snub-oscars-2024-monologue-1235846937/

The guy who used to make women search his pants for stuff still trying to get people to forget that by "championing" women.

reply

Basically what he did was draw attention to the fact that the academy(the people in the room)doesn't like her enough :)

reply

The entire industry and media have been groveling at her feet since she started directing. Not enough, of course.

reply

He's on ABC's payroll already, so since no one else wants to host this thing, they can just tell Kimmel: "You're doing it."

reply

Half the room stood up as soon as he walked in. Some people will give a standing ovation for anything.

reply

If they'd get Ricky Gervais, I'd watch this crapfest.

reply

Same. Gervais or Chappelle.

reply

I don't think Chappelle has ever hosted anything other than SNL. And he's too controversial for the Oscars.
