Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers both want their late night shows to get the Emmy! Therefore, they are competing against each other for the gold statuette.
So what happens when the Late Night host appears on Jimmy Kimmel Live during the For Your Consideration campaign time? They get downright competitive. So competitive that they each created attack ads against the other one.
The first ones they used themselves to attack the other one. Kimmel called Meyers a drunk who doesn’t wear a suit and tie, while Meyers accused Kimmel of trying to murder Guillermo.
Those were mean, but it was about to get worse. Jimmy used Seth’s brother Josh, who is a regular on JKL as Gavin Newsom, against him. However, Seth played really dirty because he recruited Jimmy’s wife, Molly McNearney, for his ad.
It was ugly! But not as ugly when their five kids called them deadbeat dads who care more about awards than they do them.
They are not wrong. So, because of that, I think both men deserve the nominations more than Jon Stewart and John Oliver. How many more Emmys do they need? Share the wealth.
