Joking Jimmy’s

Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel are two of Late Night TV’s best Host’s. Both hosts make people watching the show live, as well as people at home, crack up while they listen to the comedians poke fun at anything and everything. On their shows each night the Jimmy’s have celebrity guests that they sit down with and talk to. Each host has qualities that earn them fans, ratings, and most of all, cash.

Jimmy Fallon is employed by NBC and hosts The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He has been the host of The Tonight Show for seven weeks, but prior to that he hosted Late Night With Jimmy Fallon for five years. Fallon took over The Tonight Show in 2014 replacing Jay Leno. Fallon brought The Tonight Show back to New York City for the first time in about fifty years! The usual guests on the show are actors or musicians, and throughout the show you get to listen to great music played by The Roots. Jimmy has a net worth of about twenty five million dollars, but that will probably be on the rise since he took over The Tonight Show. Fallon’s show is by far the most popular show on late night TV; getting an average of 4.83 million viewers per night.

Jimmy Kimmel is just as good of a host as Jimmy Fallon is though. Kimmel works for ABC and hosts The Jimmy Kimmel Show! Kimmel has been the host of the show for eleven years, starting in 2003. As well as hosting the show, Kimmel is also the executive producer. Jimmy Kimmel Live! is filmed in Hollywood, California where Jimmy lives with his wife and two kids. The guests on Kimmel’s show are usually athletes and TV stars. Throughout the show music is played by Cleto and the Cletones. Kimmel is worth about thirty five million dollars. Jimmy Kimmel Live is definitely one of the most watched shows on late night television averaging 2.83 million viewers per night.

Even though both shows are very funny I prefer The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. I like Fallon’s show better because I love The Roots music and enjoy watching the hilarious bits on comedy Fallon does with his celebrity guests. If love to hear from your favorite athletes and TV stars I recommend the tonight show, but if you love to listen to your favorite musicians and Movie stars I recommend the Jimmy Fallon show. Choose wisely.
