my Conan will prevail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hehe.. Jimmy's funny. Cute too.

Conan has the funniest show in that timeslot.

As far as ABC is concerned, I actually enjoyed "Politically Incorrect". It was far better than "Jimmy Kimmel Live". If anyone is interested Bill Maher, the host of PI, is gonna have a new show, very similar to PI, on HBO later on this month!

Brian Damage · 02-06-2003, 06:36 PM

I wasn't too crazy about Kimmel's new show the only time I saw it. I hate Bill Maher though and was glad his show got cancelled. IMHO

°Bubbly Blonde° · 02-06-2003, 06:39 PM

I watched Jimmy Kimmel and I didnt like it except for a few guests that were on........anywayz, they should never have dropped Politcally Incorrect that's about the only thing I watched or would watch on ABC besides Oprah

I really don't think "Jimmy Kimmel Live" will be around for long. Late night comedy is a tough nut to crack, and I just don't think he looks comfortable in his new job.

Plus, he has got to get some better guests.

Kathy Griffin? She's so starved for attention, I'm surprised she hasn't shown up on the Bowflex infomercial.
