Jimmy Kimmel, Matt Damon, and more...


Let my just say that I've never been a fan of Jimmy Kimmel, nor do I ever watch his show. That being said, this ongoing bit between him and Matt Damon, along with his girlfriend Sarah Silverman, Ben Affleck and countless other celebrities, is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

It all started back on 2006 when Jimmy Kimmel kept jokingly bumping Matt Damon on his show, only to finally really do it with Matt Damon in person:



Then not much happened until the following summer when Kimmel had his former parking lot security guard turned talk show personality Guillermo Díaz offer to interview Matt Damon at a red carpet event for the premiere of Ocean's Thirteen:



Later on in the summer Kimmel would strike again via Guillermo just before the release of Damon's new movie, The Bourne Ultimatum:



Things cooled off for a while until January 31, 2008, when Matt Damon got payback with Jimmy's girlfriend Sarah Silverman:



Jimmy got his own revenge on Matt several weeks later with his lifelong friend Ben Affleck and an all-star cast of celebrities (my favorite appearances are Brad Pitt, Robin Williams, Josh Groban, and Harrison Ford):



I thought the Colbert/O'Brien/Stewart fiasco over who really made Huckabee was good, but this series is great!
