What a difference two decades make. Comedian James Christian Kimmel is still joking and his two competitors are no longer standing.

Jay Leno and David Letterman have both been replaced, but Jimmy appears to be the comic with the last late night laugh.

It was 19 years ago when his show premiered on ABC-TV. They said it wouldn’t last, which was a weird thing for the network to say. Sadly for some, it has had a tremendous run. Thanks to those who stuck with him and others who joined along the wacky way.

The frozen precipitation may result in dangerous travel conditions and scattered power outages.
