Jimmy Kimmel Is Moving His Show To Prime Time – Well Deserved [VIDEO]

Actually, I'm a little shocked that I'm writing this article.  I wasn't a big fan of Kimmel when he first started, but he's definitely proven himself over the years.  And now he's moving the show to a better time slot

According to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette,

Jimmy Kimmel Live" trades time slots with ABC's "Nightline" Monday. Mr. Kimmel's talk show will move to 11:35 p.m., up against David Letterman on CBS and Jay Leno on NBC. "Nightline" relocates to 12:38 a.m.

 

That's a great move for him, obviously. Amazing the turn of events in late nite.  You would have thought that Conan would have been firmly implanted in that slot, but we all know what happened there!

I have to say that Jimmy has some really inventive and  well produced parodies on the program.  Here's one with Tom Hanks that I thought was pretty darn riotous (PG, by the way)

Funny stuff.  Good luck to Jimmy Kimmel.  (and everything I'm saying here is true - I'm willing to take his "lie detector test" to prove it)
