Have you all recovered from the sugar and alcohol congealing in your veins since Halloween? (Science!) ABC late night host Jimmy Kimmel had a particularly fun Halloween this year, as he managed to send dozens of children into a crying frenzy, their hearts broken and minds reeling over the discovery that their parents had taken and eaten all of their sugary Halloween loot.

Like many a quinceañera I’ve known, South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker delighted, intrigued, confused and repulsed people the world over when they donned copies of iconic celebrity dresses to the Academy Awards in 2000. “What are they on?” many must have wondered. And the answer to that is “acid, of course.”

The duo told Jimmy Kimmel about what exactly happened on that fateful and Lycra-encased evening.

When you work the long hours of something like a TV show, the people you work with become your family. However, for Jimmy Kimmel, one of his regulars already was. For nearly nine years, fans of Jimmy Kimmel Live! were entertained by Kimmel’s “crazy uncle” Frank Potenza, known to audiences simply as Uncle Frank. A month ago, Potenza died of cancer at the age of 77 and, last night, a tearful Kimmel presented a moving tribute to the man showing some of his best moments over the years.

Al Gore’s recent angry rant against critics of global warming caught many by surprise as the former Vice President employed some uncharacteristically harsh language. Jimmy Kimmel, however, thought capitalizing on Gore’s new persona would be a great way to promote a sequel to Gore’s documentary An Inconvenient Truth and Kimmel released an expletive-filled trailer on his ABC show last night.

Sometimes politicians just make things too easy for the late night comics. And Jon Huntsman? You can add him to that list. On Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday night, Kimmel aired the campaign spot produced by the Huntsman campaign that was probably intended both to introduce the candidate to America–and to convince us all he’s just regular folk. But wow, it did have an undertone of parody to it, and Kimmel got laughs simply for airing it–including the narrator’s message that Huntsman’s wife dreams of dinner out at a nice restaurant, but “that day seems yet to arrive.” As Kimmel put it, “that’s just sad…like the trailer for a movie where the dog dies at the end.”

Jimmy Kimmel has always had a deep, abiding love for Oprah Winfrey. Why else would he have played the truly horrifying creation “Oprah Jimfrey” on The Man Show 12 years ago? So, with Oprah’s show finally heading to that Favorite Place in the sky, it’s unsurprising that he’d want to give her a little tribute. However, last night, Kimmel went all out, bringing in Boyz II Men to sing their touching farewell (and parody farewell) staple, “It’s Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday.”

Last night Jimmy Kimmel marveled at how many wives Osama bin Laden left behind, calling him “the Larry King of terrorists.” Yet never fear, Kimmel comically imagines that the resourceful wives of Bin Laden will support themselves with a new must-see reality show: The Real Housewives Of Osama Bin Laden.

Last night Jimmy Kimmel recognized an interesting phenomenon as of late that we noticed as well: the reactions of journalists interviewing Donald Trump have been very entertaining. Kimmel took it a step further with a promo for a new exciting game show called Can You Keep a Straight Face While Interviewing Donald Trump?

On Jimmy Kimmel‘s post-Oscars special, the comic host unveiled a spoof trailer for a movie inspired by Oscar winner The King’s Speech and adapted for America as Tyler Perry’s The President Speech. In it, former boxing champion Mike Tyson trades in the gloves and a paintbrush (see clip) in order to humorously give former President George W. Bush elocution lessons.

You’ve got a few ways to climb out of a hole when you’re a troubled star. Charlie Sheen seems to be trying the they think I’m crazy, but I’ll show them. I’m beyond crazy approach. Lindsay Lohan, compared to Sheen’s appearances on network television Monday, comes across as downright likable, making a funny cameo in a hilarious mock ad for an exercise video featuring Kimmel and Modern Family star Sofia Vergara.

Last week, the Internet delighted at the discovery of some old stock photos featuring none other than Parks and Recreation star Amy Poehler. “How could this be?” we wondered. Well, Poehler may be one of the most successful women in comedy, starring in multiple beloved series, becoming an SNL cast member and anchoring Weekend Update while there, and co-founding two of the biggest comedy theaters and schools in New York and Los Angeles, however, that stuff doesn’t happen over night. She explained her Getty Image past last night to Jimmy Kimmel.

Nightline lives on, but it’s about to become a shorter program. Starting February 4, the long-running late night news show will end at midnight instead of 12:05 a.m., so that Jimmy Kimmel Live can get an earlier start. It also allows ABC to sell additional advertising time on Kimmel, which keeps its current out-time of 1:05 in addition to the earlier start.

Last night, Jimmy Kimmel Live was guest-directed by Michel Gondry, the director behind such films at Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind and The Science of Sleep. Sure, the whole thing was basically just a long commercial for Gondry’s latest movie The Green Hornet, but there’s nothing the French director can’t make wacky, whimsical, and a little bit awesome (except, maybe, the movie The Green Hornet).

Conan O’Brien‘s joke yesterday that killed, mixed footage of Sarah Palin from her reality show and scenes from the animated classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to show Palin taking glee in destroying the beloved creature. Audiences found it hilarious, but one group of people likely not laughing were the writers of Jimmy Kimmel‘s late night show who came up with a similar concept a few weeks ago. Therefore Conan, in a smart move to not only do what was right, but also capture some publicity, offered this funny video apology to express his regret for borrowing the material.

On last night’s Conan, host Conan O’Brien presented an updated version of the classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer featuring none other than the Mama Grizzly herself, Sarah Palin. Combining footage of the classic Rudolph animation with clips from Palin’s reality show where she was hunting, Conan provides the perfect holiday recipe for hilarity.

An orthodox Jewish rabbi claims his image was used without consent by Jimmy Kimmel in a late night joke about LeBron James last summer–and now the rabbi, who goes by the nickname the “Flying Rabbi,” is suing. According to The Hollywood Reporter‘s THR blog, Rabbi Dovid Sondik claims Kimmel and ABC made him “look foolish” and portrayed him as a “laughingstock.”

Bill Carter took his publicity tour for The War For Late Night to late night last night – as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel‘s ABC show.

With two weeks since the book’s release, Carter could talk about the reactions he’s gotten from people who have read it – like Jeff Zucker and Jay Leno.

The whole Rand Paul-Aqua Buddha thing came and went a few months ago, but it’s back in the news as the weeks until the election wind down.

Since Aqua Buddha was introduced in the most recent Kentucky debate, and in a campaign ad, the character of Aqua Buddha has taken on a life of its own.

There are three ways people feel towards Tim and Eric. Either they think the duo is brilliant, awful, or they have no idea who they are. There are no other reactions. They’re incredibly bizarre interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live is a perfect example why.

Although Jeff Zucker had many successes during his long tenure time at NBC, in the wake of his dismissal by the soon-to-be bosses from Comcast, most people are focussing on his many, many failures. That’s just what the folks at Jimmy Kimmel Live did last night, and they did it through song! Using Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” the go-to tune for any musical parody involving listing, the bit features a Zucker lookalike gleefully singing the names of some of the worst NBC disasters of the Zucker era.

Levi Johnston was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, because, no he’s not a reality TV star yet, but he might be one day and, you know, what the hell. He’s sort of the reality star of our lives already.

The interview is friendly, but Kimmel’s pretty solid smackdown to end the segment leaves Johnston speechless.

Christiane Amanpour got pizza last week from a late night host, welcoming her to the airwaves. But WHO WAS IT?!

On Twitter, she reported it was NBC’s Jimmy Fallon. But Broadcasting & Cable says it was ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel. We have the answer!

We’ve been on the Basil Marceaux beat for a couple weeks now, and on the heels of Mediaite’s exclusive interview with the anti-traffic stop Tennessee Governor candidate, Marceaux stopped by Jimmy Kimmel‘s ABC late night show last night.

It went how you’d expect.

As iconic news host Larry King prepares to make his exit later this year, much has been and will continue to be written about how King’s time as king of cable news is long gone.

People will talk about his softball interviews, laugh at his out-of-touch moments, point to his massive ratings declines. But while this goes on over the next few months, quite possibly here at Mediaite as well, remember what makes Larry King great too. Here’s my favorite Larry King moment ever.

This isn’t the sort of story one comes across every day. Apparently a crew was set to tape a segment for Jimmy Kimmel Live! last week, while a pro-life group were demonstrating across the street. For reasons that remain unclear, the crew turned a hot spotlight on protester Ryan Bueler who reportedly withstood 15 minutes under the hot light. Conservative outlets have used terms like “weapons” and “assault” though some may see that as typical Internet hyperbole.
