These two fellas, old friends, unbelievably talented, just two princes. Kimmel even put up a for your consideration billboard…that said I’m voting for Stephen. That is so nice, so nice. This award belongs all 200 of the incredibly hard working people who make this show. First and foremost, the writers of this show… the stage crew, production staff, talent, segment editors, the band, cold field, control and graphics, research, footage, digital, accounting, legal, wardrobe, makeup, security, maintenance, assistants and interns, and, of course, the audience department, who let in all of you gorgeous people every night.”

  2. Both of these guys are class acts. Integrity and scruples before money and fame. It’s a dying breed and not even the president understands the difference. These two will be fine wherever they go and what they decide to do in future. Hopefully we will still be able to experience and appreciate their humor, humanity and love in future wherever they land.

  3. Isn’t it kinda gaming for Kimmel to do that? If he tells the voters not to vote for him it kinda means Colbert didn’t win fair and square.

  4. “Look Donnie, I won an Emmy and you didn’t!” 😁/s

    *That’ll rustle his jimmies.*

  5. Time to cancel Disney plus. They just made abc cancel Kimmel
