>> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live!" tonight -- will ferrell and john c. reilly. chef matty matheson. and music from rita wilson. and now -- calm down -- jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: hi, everyone. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching it. thank you for coming to see it. [ cheers and applause ] very nice. welcome. i have a question. you know, i have a question for the group that i'm hoping you're

going to help with. it's a holiday question and the question is this. how do you tip your garbage man? i've given it a lot of thought. there's no good way to tip him. you can't put the tip in an envelope on the container because they might not see it. it could go to the dump. also, somebody might steal it before they even get to it. i don't know how to mail it to them. even if i did, i have no confidence that it would get to my garbage man. and so i don't know what to do. am i supposed to wait outside my house at 5:00 in the morning to hand each one of them the tip? i'm not doing that. i have three garbage trucks that come to my house. one for trash, one for recycling, one for yard clippings. i'm not going to spend the night and morning out there. should i tape a map under the lid of each can that will lead them to the tip? [ laughter ] a nicholas cage "national treasure" type thing, i don't know. maybe train a raccoon to deliver the money, you know? tommy the tip raccoon that might be the only way to go.

until elon musk comes up with a garbage drone, these guys are going to have to get venmo or something or they're out of luck this year. if anyone has an idea on this, please let me know because the garbage clock is ticking. donald trump has never waited outside to tip a garbage man, that i an can tell you, that i will say with full confidence. [ applause ] oh, boy. it wasd on fun day for only the best people as trump's associates one by one get locked up as the democrats prepare to take the house. the president insists that he is not concerned about impeachment, he's just chilling the oval office, eating big macs, watching "fox & friends" while mike pence sits there motionless biding his time. [ laughter ] at least 16 members of team trump had contact with russians during the campaign or transition. 16. if donald trump was a rapper, his name would be colludikris, that's how much collusion is going on.

[ cheers and applause ] today involved something that had nothing to do with that, sentencing day for trump's former lawyer and former friend, michael cohen. michael cohen sentenced to three years in prison for multiple counts of tax evasion and paying trump's mistresses to keep them quiet during the campaign, which is a violation. the big question, of course, is whether trump himself knew about and directed these illegal payments. and the big answer to that question is, duh. [ laughter ] this is michael cohen today as he left the courthouse after he'd been sentenced for three years. looking around like his mom was supposed to be there to pick him up. [ laughter ] here's the thing about michael cohen. i went back to some videos. for whatever reason, he always looks like he's just been sentenced to three years in prison. [ laughter ] he's got a face that he's at the airport looking for his gate. look at this. this is the expression of a man using the computer at the library to look at porn. [ laughter ] sharp guy. this tweet made the rounds today. this tweet came almost three years to the day.

cohen, when he was still on board with trump, wrote, hillary clinton, when you go to prison for defrauding america and perjury, your room and board will be free. yes, and i'll be there working in the cafeteria providing you with that board. [ laughter and applause ] what a time to be alive, huh? the lockers have become the lockees. donald trump cheats on his wife while she's at home with their infant son. donald trump has a long-term affair with a playboy playmate. donald trump illegally pays the both of them off. and michael cohen goes to jail for it. [ laughter ] it's like if johnnie cochran did time and not o.j., you know? it's crazy. cohen doesn't have to report to prison until march 6th so he is still available to host the oscars if they're looking. [ laughter ] and today another trump buddy cut a deal with the feds. american media, incorporated, the parent company of "the national enquirer," has agreed to cooperate with federal prosecutors. that's right, folks. even "the national enquirer" has

flipped on donald trump. i guess the fake news really is out to get him [ laughter ] "the enquirer" is reportedly ready to come clean on two major points that donald trump's campaign paid former playboy model karen mcdougal for her silence during the campaign, and that brad pitt had butt implants. [ laughter ] i don't know what that has to do with this. the publisher of "the enquirer" was one of the president's closest friends. "the national enquirer" was the president's favorite book, and now he can't evenread that. [ laughter ] the search continues for the next white house chief of staff. and word is whoever it is, in order to get the job, you'll need the approval of the president's daughter, ivanka, and her husband, jared kushner. will have to approve the candidate. how would you even know if you had jared kushner's approval? he gives you this empty, dead-eyed stare no matter what's going on. but he and ivanka will approve the chief of staff. two years ago the only thing

ivanka trump was approving were swatches for her handbags. now she's in charge of that. the president's other kid, the one who may have gotten him into all this russia stuff, donald trump jr., djtj, was heading into a holiday party yesterday in new york when a reporter on the scene had the sense to ask about the kinds of gifts his father gave him for christmas. >> what's the best or worst present you got? >> huh, well. you know, i'm the namesake. so i got regifted all of the things that were monogrammed for him at times. so, you know, there was one christmas where he may or may not have given me the gift that i had given him the year before. because i monogrammed it. and it was like, oh, yeah, here. i'm like, i know you didn't get this. how do you know that? because i gave to it you last year. >> jimmy: okay. [ laughter ] now i'm back to feeling sorry for him again, i think. [ laughter ] the president is licking his wounds after a rough back and forth yesterday with chuck schumer and nancy pelosi during

which he made the mistake of saying he'd be proud to shut down the government if he doesn't get $5 billion for his wall. trump was said to be so upset after the meeting he stormed out of the oval office and threw papers on the floor, like a baby would. trump really, really wants this wall. yesterday he tweeted, people do not yet realize how much of the wall including really effective renovation has already been built. if it's already been built, what are you shutting the government down for? maybe this is one of the many things people don't realize. >> people don't realize canada's been very rough on the united states. people don't realize what a big country mexico is. people don't realize, if you go back to the civil war, it was the republicans that really did the thing. a lot of people don't realize that abraham lincoln, the great abraham lincoln, was a republican. people don't realize that. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize. people don't realize.

people don't realize, you know how many number one best sellers i've had? >> jimmy: people don't realize, you know? [ cheers and applause ] it's got to be frustrating. people don't realize. christmas is coming fast. this is the time of year when schools have their holiday shows and activities. but in great britain, some parents are protesting an unusually unusual holiday-themed assignment. >> calling for an end to a school assignment that involves the murder of a beloved elf. it started last tuesday at flowering field primary school in hyde, england, when fourth graders found a crime scene. it included a chalk outline of their elf on the shelf, make blood, and crime scene tape. one mother was outraged saying it wasn't right that she had to explain the concept of homicide to her child. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: tell them santa got mad because the elf wasn't making toys fast enough and there was a price to pay. speaking of toys, this seems to

be -- maybe i'm missing something. seems to me there's no hot, impossible to find because every kid wants one, toy this year. in the past the hatch a mole, tickle me elmo, cabbage patch kids. there's no furby this year. so we brainstormed on some toy ideas and we assembled a focus group of kids to see how they might like some of the toys we came up with. and this is how that went. what we're going to do today is i'm going to show you some toys that no one has ever seen before. you'll be the first kids ever to see these toys. and they're exciting toys. and they're toys that i want to see what you think of. because we want to see if other kids will want to buy them, okay? >> okay. >> jimmy: okay, very good? everyone understand? >> yes, and my mommy told me that if we like them, we say we like them. if we do not like them, that's okay. >> jimmy: that's exactly right.

so do you guys like animals? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> jimmy: what's your favorite animal? yes? >> unicorn. >> jimmy: yes? >> owls. >> jimmy: yes? >> giraffes, because they're yellow. >> jimmy: nice. >> elephants. >> jimmy: elephants, giraffes, unicorns, and owls. >> what is your favorite animal? >> jimmy: my favorite animal is the monkey. but we don't have a monkey for you right now. we have this adorable -- thank you -- puppy. >> aww! >> jimmy: this is daisy the downer dog. [ laughter ] >> can i feel it? >> jimmy: yes, you can feel it. what do you think? how does she feel? >> this is so cute! >> jimmy: yeah, isn't it cute? >> can i feel it? >> i really think the kids would like it. >> fluffy. >> jimmy: this is a special dog. you know how most dogs are happy? >> yes. >> yeah. >> jimmy: this one isn't happy at all. this is daisy the downer dog. >> down. >> jimmy: yeah. this is a dog that says sad things.

you want to hear? >> uh sxwluf here we go. >> i'm daisy the downer dog. what's your name? >> jimmy: oh, what's your name? >> allie. >> do you like chocolate? >> yes. >> if i eat chocolate, i'll die. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh, wow. >> oh, wow. >> will you be my friend? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> my last friend got hit by a bus. he was a kitty cat. >> oh. >> jimmy: isn't that sad? do you want to say something? tell him your name. >> i hate myself. do you hate me too? >> no. >> jimmy: oh, isn't that sweet. what do you think she needs? >> attention? >> jimmy: maybe a hug would be nice? anybody want to give -- yeah. >> i do. >> oh, that hurts my bones. >> jimmy: oh wow. maybe a hug is a little too hard. maybe a pet would be nice. you want to give a nice light pet? >> i have worms in my doo-doo.

>> jimmy: oh, wow. >> do you have worms in your doo-doo? >> no. >> no. >> no. >> jimmy: oh, wow. >> i know. >> jimmy: yeah? >> you just need a family. >> jimmy: oh. >> my daddy got sold on craigslist. [ laughter ] i need expensive surgery. >> jimmy: oh. >> will you buy me expensive surgery? >> jimmy: will you buy daisy expensive surgery? >> okay. so where does it hurt? >> oh, everywhere. but mostly my soul. >> oh. >> soul? >> jimmy: yeah, its soul, it's connected to the battery pack. [ laughter ] how do you feel right now? tell me on a scale of 1 to 604, how are you feeling about daisy the -- >> i think i like him. >> she's making me happy. >> aww. >> jimmy: making you happy?

>> yeah, which is nice. so daisy? >> yes? >> i wish you could never feel sad, because you're too nice for me. >> i'll try to hang on. [ laughter ] >> come here. >> jimmy: aww, how nice. >> could i have a hug? >> yes. >> ow, it hurts my bones. [ laughter ] i've been overbred. >> aww! >> can i talk to him now? >> jimmy: yes, you want to talk to daisy? there you go. >> daisy, do you want a kiss? >> yes, please give me a kiss. but careful, i have pinkeye. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh, daisy has pinkeye, yeah. well. pink is a nice color, right? uh-huh? >> i can't see colors. >> jimmy: oh, yeah, daisy's color blind. do you think -- this is a toy you would want santa to bring you? >> yes. >> jimmy: this is a toy you would want? >> yeah. >> jimmy: to make you sad all

day long? >> no. >> no. >> jimmy: no? to make you happy all day long? >> do you want to be happy? >> i'm always in pain. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh. you know, it sounds like my deceased grandmother, to be honest with you. so you do like daisy? this is a hit? >> yes. >> yes. >> jimmy: yes? thank you, daisy. >> please put me to sleep, please? [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: all right. well, thanks, kids. tonight on the show, we have music from rita wilson. matty matheson is here. and we'll be right back with will ferrell and john c. reilly. no matter what life throws down roomba is up for the challenge. only roomba uses 2

while. >> they tightened up the moorings after a while, so yes, it got better. >> jimmy: i have a photograph of the two of you at what they call a football game but we know that's not what it is. >> football match. >> jimmy: it's really soccer though, right? >> yeah. >> jimmy: yes? no? >> soccer. >> jimmy: there you are. >> look at the revelry. >> i brought my brass horn. >> jimmy: what is going on there? >> that was frowned upon, i found out. they're like, no noisemakers at all! >> jimmy: is that right? >> very formal. i wore a tweed suit that was a castoff from the movie to the soccer match. >> jimmy: you're very dressed up for a sporting event. you were the only -- will, you're wearing -- >> i'm wearing a tie. we were in a special area where you had to be formally dressed. >> jimmy: oh. >> of course i'm wearing a speedo underneath that.

>> you had to dress up. >> we did run into a sherlock holmes-related character at that game. >> we got this actor mark strong -- >> he played the main villain in the robert downey sherlock. >> jimmy: the bald guy? >> exactly. >> super fierce, he looks like an eagle. >> we're talking to him, he was with his son. could we take a photo with him? absolutely. he's like, what are you guys doing here? we're like, we're doing holmes and watson. and he went -- [ laughter ] what? and he just had this astonished look. i don't know if it was anger. i don't know if it was jealousy. resentment? he's like, really? >> i think it was disappointment. pretty sure. >> disappointment that we were handed the reins of holmes and watson. >> yeah, we went to england and we made a lot of fun of english people, i have to say. >> jimmy: sounds like it. >> thank god there's no one from london here.

>> jimmy: at least you have each other. how many movies have you made together now? >> 43. >> jimmy: 43 movies. >> four. >> jimmy: okay, four movies. >> i was in "naked men" too but it was brief. >> jimmy: do you count that one? >> i count it. i put a lot of heart into stonewall jackson. >> he was the ghost of stonewall jackson. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we'll make it four, then. what have you learned about each other? what is it about you, each other, that you like so well? and did you like each other right at the outset? >> you know -- i did like will right at the outset. we met -- i'll never forget on the west side hallway. mollie shannon introduced us. i was like, who is this guy? he seems very familiar like we could be related or something. but yeah, we -- over time we like got to know each other better and better. and then i almost did "anchorman," didn't work out.

eventually we did together. [ cheers and applause ] i feel we did develop quite a real relationship. >> quite a real relationship. one of the things i love about john is he has colorful expressions to announce when he's going to the bathroom. >> jimmy: oh. >> it's become one of my favorite terms as well, that when john has to go number two -- >> uh-huh. >> which could also be -- you've heard the term drop a deuce? >> jimmy: yeah. >> he said, "i got to find my passport, it's somewhere here, i'm taking a trip to dusseldorf." >> a genteel way of saying it. >> on a film set that gets shortened to, "you got my passport? i gotta go." we just leave it out and it turns into this great code. sophisticated potty talk. >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. i can see what you saw in will
