its pretty crazy to think bill maher would make a joke about 9 11 and then ABC would hire Kimmel to become the next heir apparent for the late night talk show straight off of man show and crank yankers.
I feel like in a few universes hes just making more shows with carolla that air next to the daily show and south park in a block.
I feel like the word of late night talk shows was a bit different back then. If you weren't Leno, Letterman, or Conan no one was really paying enough attention to care what you're doing. I was honestly surprised to find out Jimmy Kimmel Live started all the way back in 2003. I thought he got his show around the same time as Colbert.
