>> lou: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- jeff bridges, and now, jimmy kimmel! ♪ ♪ >> jimmy: thanks, thank you.

i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming to see us here in hollywood. it's friday, and we all have something in common tonight. none of us had anything better to do than this. [ cheers ] iwant to welcome those who joined us in primetime for game four of the nba finals in boston particular dislike to warriors power forward draymond green. everybody doesn't love draymond in boston. [ laughter ] he has been greeted with chants of f-u each time he's played there, which you have to take with a grain of salt, f-u is like their aloha in boston. of "f.u." that is like aloha in boston. green and his warrior teammates were not happy with all the four-letter words the fans have been throwing towards draymond. it's like being upset with spirit airlines for losing your bag. you knew what you were getting into. game five is monday night. we'll have another special primetime show ahead of that one. and on monday morning, part two

of the insane congressional hearings detailing what happened at the capitol on january 26th, more than 20 million american watched that live last night. it was deeply unsettling. here's what you missed, a message to donald trump in a nut shell. >> thanks to your bull [ bleep ], we are now under siege. that was liz cheney recounting an e-mail from a lawyer from mike pence to one of the lawyers helping trump overturn the election. who would have ever guessed dick cheney's daughter would be our last hope for democracy. she was very effective to paint a brutal, damning portrait of a president who tried to overthrow democracy. and there's still a chance he could be back in the oval office eating double bacon cheeseburgers with kanye.

man do i hope republicans pay attention to these details. we didn't know how premeditated it was until last night. this was a coordinated effort to tke control of the country. that's probably going to be the basis for trump's defense. he's going to say it was way too coordinated. there was damaging testimony from trump's inner circle. from his own family, in fact. we learned that he did not call in the national guard to stop the attack. he made that up when he said it. we also learned that when his supporters were breaking in windows, chanting "hang mike pence," trump said maybe they had the right idea while this was happening. this is his own vice president. and mike must have been crapping his pence. multiple lawmakers went so far as to ask trump for pardons. which is exactly the kind of thing innocent people do. they're doing everything they can to slip around this. the house judiciary committee tweeted "all old news".

that was also a defense at nuremberg, okay? it was 1943. old news isn't a defense. although i guess the fact that they didn't call it "fake news" is progress. but it boggles the mind that the vast majority of republicans are going along with the idea that the whole thing is a partisan political stunt. bill barr, betsy devos, these are not antifa, okay? fox news is so intent on burying their viewers' heads in the sand, not only did they not show the hearing last night, they went commercial free for two and a half hours so their viewers wouldn't switch the channel to see what is actually going on. they went into overdrive to make it seem like it was just a rowdy group of party people sneaking into the movies or something. >> the idea that this was coup or coup attempt. >> there's no evidence of a coup here. >> acting like that was a massive coup and insurrection.

>> it was not even close to an insurrection. >> there was no insurrection. >> there was no insurrection. there was riot, a small one, that got a little bit out of hand. >> january 6th was actually an overwhelmingly peaceful march. >> they were afraid of some goofball, trespassing, nutty rioters? >> how does a guy putting his feet up on nancy pelosi's desk make it violent? >> does it look like a coup? you tell me. >> yeah, it looks like a coup. [ cheers and applause ] to me it looks like a cuckoo for

cocoa puffs is what it looks like to me. on fox and friends, they encouraged people not to watch in song. ♪ well, i ain't watchin' tv today ♪ ♪ if you don't have anything good to say ♪ ♪ then shut your mouth ♪ >> jimmy: i got my head up my butt like a big moron ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> unbelievable. and you know trump is at home so thrilled to be back on primetime, he can't stop pulling his nipples. he loves it. he responded with not one but 14 manic posts that no one saw on truth social, starting with the unselect committee didn't spend one minute studying the reason people went to washington, d.c. in massive numbers, far greater than what the fake news is willing to report.

look at our country now. yeah, look at what you did to our country, we are in hell. thanks a lot. i mean, this is some defense. basically his defense is, yeah, i robbed the bank but look how many people i got to do it with me. probably the proudest moment was seeing his daughter, his own pride and joy, tell the committee that she believed bill barr. he wrote, she was only trying to be respectful to barr. in his position as attorney general. he sucked. yeah, he sucked on your man teets around bailed two weeks before they want you out of

office. in the trump family, that's called being thrown under the "access hollywood" bus. one-sided, totally political witch hunt. there's no defense for any of this. >> there is something terrible happening in this process, and it's called defamation of character. the president, the 45th president of the united states' character is being defamed, and all of his staff and his family, and all republicans. everyone's reputation is being defamed as lies are being told about all of us and president trump. just for politics. and it makes me sick. >> i hope it makes you sick enough not to come in to work. because she had an accident, she once again crashed head first into the english language.

>> no one on this january 6 committee dares to ask a question, what is happening to these people and why their due process rights are being so fragrantly and wh horrifically violated. >> always sounds like a drunk driver arguing with a cup. even donald trump is like not that poorly educated. but as far as ass-kissing goes, clam mom finished second to one america news. >> we here at one america news would like to say thank you, president trump. your legacy as a patriot is unquestionable. you have inspired countless millions and shown our nation what it truly means to make america great again.

for one america news. i'm pearson sharp. >> generic viagra delivered in discrete packaging. >> i can't think of a finer advertisement to follow that heartfelt tribute. on behalf of all of our flaccid male viewers who need a broom handle and duct tape to get it up, thank you mr. president. your boner's in the mail. back to basketball. tonight we saw game four of the nba finals. the tickets for the series are going for record high prices. in san francisco, the worst seats were going for $800. that's almost a whole tank of gasoline. and from time to time, we like to find out who the fans like more. we got up in the arena to see how long we could keep a warriors fan from getting back to his seat in a whole new edition of clock block.

>> you woke up his daughter! what's the score? you don't know the score? >> reporter: one second, we'll get that score for you as soon as we can. it's a one-point game. you're really missing some game! >> you say you want more cotton candy? okay, one more cotton candy. >> dude, i ate it all! >> and it's a tie game. unbelievable! let's see it! they got it! >> oh, that's it, end of the game, celtics win. thanks for talking to us.

about how wonderful love is, how you, how i love and how i am loved. and it just accentuates all of that. >> jimmy: did it make you realize that you are one of the most-loved people in america? i don't think as far as famous people go there are many more people who are loved more than you are. maybe oprah. that's really it. do you feel that same love for strangers and mundane things? >> a connection. i'm not the only guy who's been through something like this. so many people. you feel a connection. if this covid hasn't taught us anything, it's sure taught me, we're connected. we're all in this thing together. and we're all important to each other. >> jimmy: yeah, for sure. you posted something that was --

i read this amazing script, and there was this description of this guy who loved the sound of his own voice, and you can empathize. it was wild. it was wild. and then finding yourselves on the planet striding down the main street to the cantina. >> jimmy: oh, you went there in. >> yeah, we went there. >> jimmy: tax break, right? >> yeah, tax break. the hotels were terrible. they would play the music, so you start getting into that, which is not very character character appropriate for this particular guy. >> jimmy: this particular guy is a former jedi, who's now a jedi hunter. >> yep.

>> jimmy: there you go. the grand inquisitor. >> yeah, he hasn't seen the sun in a while. yeah, that's him. >> that's his skin -- you're obviously wearing make-up. >> yes. >> jimmy: how longs to it take to get that going. >> that was four hours. >> jimmy: i could to that in 40 minutes. what's the bulb on your head? >> it's like a boiled egg vibe. basically they had to put all these layers of stuff. it was like sensory deprivation at times. and by the end of the day shooting, which was water tight glued and filled with sweat and would slush when i would walk. and to get out of it, they get a pair of scissors and cut you out and this torrent of sweaty glue would flow down my face.

so you get your lightsaber. do you get to keep it? >> no. >> jimmy: then your character got stabbed through the stomach. >> one of them. >> jimmy: because your character has two stomachs like a hippo or something. that's what many of the nerds are saying the reason you are able to survive this is because you have another stomach. >> you know that i survived this? >> yes. >> how? >> i don't know. i just throw it out there. i assume you do or else why would you be here right now? >> right. >> jimmy: you wouldn't be saying watch the show, you'd be saying screw them, they put my head in an egg, sweated all over. screw you, disney. >> you're making a valiant

effort to get me to do a spoiler. which obviously i'm not going to do. >> jimmy: nobody wants that. so in the next episode. >> jimmy kimmel, ladies and gentlemen. that was good. >> jimmy: maybe i'm the grand inquisitor. i >> that's true. they've never seen us in the same room before. >> jimmy: let's get back to the root of this thing. when you were a kid, really, did you go to the movie when you were a kid?

[ laughter ] >> it's true now i think about it. takes some re-examining, maybe. they would take character names and run around in the woods and play dress up and all that, which doesn't sound good. >> jimmy: no. that doesn't sound good at all. >> yes, i must revisit this and talk to my mother apparently.

they would pick characters from the show. and there was an overweight guy, he was named jabb the hutt. >> one of them named himself jabba -- >> jimmy: that doesn't sound like, i want to be jabba. >> and there was a very hirsut guy who was chewbacca. >> jimmy: and you went to the dark side. if you had to choose, would you rather be a villain or the hero in "star wars." >> i love being the villain. >> jimmy: in the next episode, the inquisitor ate a bunch of tums and was okay? >> i'm trying to change the subject of the spoilers.
