Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
How did Kimmel do? And why the hell would anyone want to host this thing in the future?

He was super amazing but totally should have asked for a recount yo.

Re: Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
From what I saw, he was ok. But I much prefer when they had movie stars hosting (Steve Martin, Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, Chevy Chase etc.), not celebrities/talk show hosts (Ellen, Kimmel, Letterman, Neil Patrick Harris etc.).

B+
He was really pretty good even though the show ran too long. And, of course, he has no blame for the mess at the end.

His opening monologue was hit or miss, but he was fine for the rest.

Re: Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
Kimmel said "It was the weirdest TV finale since Lost". I'm not sure it was weird. It was perfectly explainable. It was embarrassing more than anything else.

Re: Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
Kimmel gets a B
I actually enjoyed the random tourists bit. I liked the candy parachutes. I didn't have to mute him once. There was only one joke that was over the top. I liked his specific opening, not the JT opening. The matt damon stuff was a riot. I would not want to see him host again though. I'm tired of late night hosts or talk show folks hosting. I can just seem them going after Trevor Noah or Samantha Bee next which would be disgusting. I want to see them try to go back to Eddie Murphy or Jim Carey or Melissa McCarthy.

Re: Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
I liked the Matt Damon stuff. This alone gets him a B+

Re: Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
The Oscars were another night of Jimmy Kimmel show. I wasn't bored but didn't particularly loved it as well. And it went on too long the bus tour thing was just weird and the tourists were so really shocked it was so believable.

Re: Grade the Host (2017 Edition)
Actually I've been watching more and more clips from Oscar night and I think he did a great job. It is much more fun than the old days of boring Oscar shows. Though I still wish he was a movie star.

Eh. Wouldn't be opposed to having him return, but he'd be far from my first choice.
