Always fun when Bill Burr makes a talk show host visibly uncomfortable. I'm worried they'll stop having him on altogether. Supporting Luigi might be crossing the line. I dunno how Jimmy Kimmel feels about Luigi Mangione, but I know how the people who sign his paychecks feel.

If they can't get people to hate Luigi, they'll shift to getting people to forget about him.

I don't watch Jimmy Kimmel, is he just a bad interviewer? Cuz he sucked. Even the introduction was bad.

He was the guy what did the Man Show, right? The one that featured chicks on trampolines?

He's gone downhill

I liked The Man Show, but I was also a stupid teenager.

The show that kept Joe Rogan in the public eye between fear factor and his podcast? Yeah, fuck that noise.

[–] MothmanDelorian@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think he did it during Fear Factor. He was the second grouping of hosts with Doug Stanhope after Corolla and Kimmel left

[–] im_at_work_mom@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Correct, however at the time man show was fine. It was ruined by Joe and Doug. They made that show completely unwatchable. Their comedy just sucked ass compared to Jimmy and Adam.

Stanhope is incredible now but his style was 100% wrong for tv.

His guest spot on Louie was the best episode of that show.

[–] MothmanDelorian@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

IMO he was 2nd to the Joan Rivers episode.

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 1 points 14 hours ago

Yeah that was definitely good too.

I dunno what this Joe Rogan is, but it sounds like something you'd put on a bald head to make it grow hair

[–] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Did you ever see Dogma? Do you remember the Shit Demon? A Joe Rogan is just the nice name we call them.

[–] harmsy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I dunno what this Joe Rogan is, but it sounds just like Raditz.

FTFY :D

I liked his commentary on those squirrel videos.

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Trump hates Kimmel because he dunks on him all the time

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

He doesn't really interview, it's just setting up four panel jokes. He uses the same vibe as his opening monolog

[–] bestagon@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

He’s too good for ratings. People tune in to watch him make the host uncomfortable
