How Jimmy Kimmel preps for the Oscars and why the end of his talk show may be near

LA Times  

It’s 30 days before the Academy Awards, and Jimmy Kimmel is in a hotel in Las Vegas, the town where he grew up. People were really laughing, and I loved it.” In the ensuing decades, the 56-year-old comedian has hosted everything from the American Music Awards to the Emmys — and, of course, there’s his talk show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” which just celebrated its 21st anniversary. I know how much work goes into them, so I thought, ‘Yeah, I don’t necessarily want to do this ever again.’ ” Jimmy Kimmel finally got his idol, David Letterman, as a guest on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” in 2012. That’s when his idol and eventual friend David Letterman became aware of Kimmel, booking him on “Late Show.” “I did his show a bunch of times, and that’s what attracted the attention of the ABC executives.” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” quickly established itself as an alternative to the other late-night programs. On an episode of “Strike Force Five,” the podcast he recorded with his fellow talk-show hosts during the writers’ strike, he confessed he’d pondered ending “Jimmy Kimmel Live” — it was the strike that made him realize how much he still enjoyed it.
