Jimmy Kimmel, game show host

Jimmy Kimmel, after leaving radio to become Ben Stein's first (and best) sidekick on Win Ben Stein's Money, is getting back into the game show racket for ABC's Set for Life. ABC has issued a press release for the game show, which is slated to air later this season, but they don't actually say what the game show will entail, other than that the winner will receive monthly payouts for the rest of their lives. I think a cool ironic twist would be to secretly poison the contestants so the rest of their life would only be one month. Then Kimmel could cackle wildly while flames shot out of the stage behind him. We'll see if they use my suggestion or not. Oh yeah, and fans of Kimmel's late night talk show needn't worry, he'll still be doing that, too.TV Squad Hot Topics
