tomorrow. and now, abc's "jimmy kimmel live." >> announcer: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, kristen wig. eric stonestreet. from "wicked city," ed westwick and music from elle king with cleto and the cletones. and now, on my word, here's jimmy kimmel!

>> jimmy: hello, everybody. i'm jimmy kimmel. very nice. hi, everyone. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. we're back home. i'm glad you're here. i'm glad i'm here too. i'm glad any of us is here. this is our first night back after a week of shows in brooklyn, new york. i think i speak on behalf of everyone. we just barely survived. had we been there six more hours we'd all be dead, right, guillermo? >> guillermo: right, jimmy. >> jimmy: does your wife know you were out late every night in brooklyn if. >> guillermo: no, no, no. >> jimmy: how is it possible she doesn't know? >> guillermo: i was working very hard for the show. >> jimmy: that's what you told her? >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: what about when we're on the show and i mention you were out all night? >> guillermo: she doesn't watch it. >> jimmy: doesn't watch the show. i learned a lot in brooklyn. for instance, i learned that i

have a cousin who pushes an iguana around in a baby stroller. that's right. she brought it to the show. i learned you can chargy $6 for a cup of coffee when you call it pour-over. according to a new report from the world health organization, bacon, sausage, hot dogs and others processed meats significantly increase your chance of getting cancer which is an ugly way of saying i'm probably die doing what i love. the report said the average american eats 18 pounds of bacon a year, which seemed like a lot. then you think about all the -- each package is a pound. i realize i think i ate that yesterday. 18 pounds. the problem with the study is the more people talk about bacon about how bad bacon is, how bacon is like cigarettes, how bacon causes cancer, all i hear is "bacon, bacon." it makes me want bacon.

so i will have bacon. i guess the point is some things in life are worth dying for. and bacon is right at the top of those things. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: more positive reinforcement for donald trump today. a new poll conducted by associated press shows a majority of republican voters think donald trump is the most electable republican candidate. which is great news for donald trump. not so great news for republican voters. but seeing donald trump is the most electable candidate is like saying glazed is the most healthy doughnut. is it possible people don't know what the word electable means? do they think it means delicious? this chocolate pudding is electable. trump hosted a town hall at a country club in new hampshire where they asked a very good question. >> mr. trump, with the exception of your family, have you ever been told no? >> many times. i mean, my whole life really has

been a no. and i fought through it. i have been -- you know, i talked about it. it's not been easy for me. it has not been easy for me. you know, i started off in brooklyn. my father gave me a small loan of a million dollars -- [ laughter ] >> jimmy: and that was in the early '70s by the way. a gallon of gas cost 38 cents in 1973. that would be like a small loan of $8 million from your father now. he must have a medical condition where he can't hear himself taup. mean while, jeb bush is trying to get momentum going by releasing a new book. it's a collection of e-mails he sent and received when he was governor of florida. the book is called "reply all." because nothing gets people excited like group e-mail. this is the cover. his enthusiasm is overwhelming. it really looks like a print ad for a prescription drug.

don't let irritable bowel syndrome get you down, ask your doctor about dulcolax today. in addition to the book jeb is launching the "jeb can fix it" tour. their new slogan, "jeb can fix it." fix the election? that might be his only hope. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: remember when joe the plumber ran for office? this is like the opposite of that. bush is trailing both donald trump and ben carson in the polls. in fact, ben carson's now leading donald trump in iowa. he appeared yesterday on "meet the press" where chuck todd asked him to address concerns about his very low-key demeanor. >> do you think that people mistake your soft-spokenness with lack of energy? there was a time when i was very volatile. >> when was that?

i would go after people, rocks and bricks and baseball bats and hammers. and of course many people know the story, when i was 14, i tried to stab someone. >> jimmy: right. but before i could stab him, i fell asleep and he fell asleep. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] he doesn't seem low energy to me, he seems high. not high energy, just high. he seems like he's been sucking on a water bong all week and showed up at "meet the press." meanwhile, bernie sanders, every candidate in this race has a signature quirk. hillary clinton has that laugh. trump that is had gestures. ben carson has the voice to put you in a coma. bernie sanders has something different, the tongue. >> it's a mutual high-national state. why are you going after these

hampshire? >> some people who are watching, senator -- [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i imagine that -- we just got back from a week in brooklyn. brooklyn and l.a. are very different. not just weather and culture. people are different. there's a toughness when you walk around brooklyn that you don't necessarily experience here. people ar little more no-nonsense. to break that up a bit and generate warmth we sent cousin sal out in the street to yell nice things at people passing by. we do in this in hollywood from time to time. we thought it would be interesting to try it in new york. here it is, cousin sal shouts compliments in brooklyn. >> sal: excuse me, do you work in the financial district? >> no. >> sal: you look like a million bucks. >> yeah? >> sal: yeah, you do.

just the way you carry yourself. that's u.s. dollars i'm talking about! we, whoa, whoa, someone call the prospect park zoo, looks like a fox just escaped. believe that? are you with me, fellas, huh? look at her go! let me tell you something, sir. that's not a tie, that's a win. compared to that all the ties are losers. tie five. get it? all right. i tell you what, i'm going to take a guess, i bet that's your baby, right? because the baby's cute and you're cute. case closed. tell your friend on the phone. hey, the statue of liberty called, she wants her posture back. how do you walk so upright? wow! hey, let me tell you something. your accessories are a successry. you did it all right, congratulations! excuse me, i'm looking in this book here at brooklyn attractions.

and you're not in it. i'll get the next book. hey, man, you're the perfect slice of new york pizza. thin, know what i mean? perfect. thin and hot. you know what? i want to fold you up and stuff you in my mouth. all right, i went too far. but you're thin and hot! excuse me, sir. can i borrow your glasses for a second? because your looks are blinding, wow. such good looking -- what? give me my glasses! >> get the [ bleep ] out of here. >> sal: give me my glasses! >> macy's. >> sal: you don't need the men's department. you're perfectly put together already. go home! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: pretty much the same as here. you're welcome, brooklyn. when we come back eric stonestreet is here from "modern family." we're going to make a world series bet that one of us will

>> jimmy: thank you for rejoining us. kristen wiig and music from el king on the way. first football. this is good. dallas cowboys lost to the giants yesterday. after the game, cowboys defensive end greg hardy gave what i guess technically is a postgame interview. but it's also so much less than that. >> sean just said that he looks at -- >> no comment, next question? >> the defense -- >> no comment, next question? any other questions? no comment. next question? next question?

any other questions? no comment. any other questions? >> were you -- >> no comment. any other questions? no comment. any other questions? thank you guys for coming, i appreciate you all very much. >> jimmy: i don't know, if i was one of the reporters i would never have stopped asking questions. i'd ask 150,000 questions. greg, will you say no comment? "no comment." thank you. i'm focused right now on baseball, not football. the world series starts tomorrow night. the kansas city royals are playing the new york mets. as if things weren't already tense enough between kansas city and new york. it's going to be a great series. odds -- even odds in las vegas. last time the royals won the world series was 1985. last time the mets won was 1986. in other words we've got a couple of real losers here. and one of them is going to win. i'm a mets fan. my friend eric stonestreet loves the kansas city royals. he's from kansas city. you know how the mayors and

royals win, new york gets hot dogs and ribs go back the other way? who cares what these guys get to eat? we decided to make a wager that is hopefully a little bit more interesting. and i'm going to tell you about it. first from "modern family" please welcome eric stonestreet! [ cheers and applause ] >> hello. >> jimmy: thank you for being here. >> thank you. fresh off the set of the show. >> jimmy: are you? did you shoot today? >> rushed right over. >> jimmy: thank you for rushing over. royals jersey -- >> always have it in my car. >> jimmy: i sprung this idea on you this morning and you were kind enough to agree to it. >> absolutely. >> jimmy: do you find watching experience? >> it is. i was not rooting for the mets,

i wanted the dodgers to play. it is rough. the mets are tough. the royals always seem to make it a tough game. >> jimmy: especially when you have a team like the royals, like the mets, where they haven't won in such a long time. >> right. >> jimmy: it's heartbreaking. we decided to make it even more unpleasant. we decided to make a bet. my original idea is loser gets a vasectomy. [ laughter ] my wife didn't like that one so we narrowed it down -- >> and i had mine years ago. kidding! >> jimmy: we agreed to let fate decide our bet. let's go to the wheel of terrible bets. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: guillermo. this is the bet. these are our bets. i will explain the various bets. this is ear pierce, very simple. whoever loses has to get their ear pierced with an earring for the other team. that's terrible. twitter takeover. the loser -- the winner gets to take over the loser's twitter account for an hour and write

anything he wants. that's bad. >> oh! >> jimmy: paint ball in a bounce house. the loser gets in a bounce house and the winner fires paint balls at him. >> for how long? >> jimmy: a minute. handcuffed to a superhero. in this one of us would be handcuffed to one of these superheroes from hollywood boulevard. >> oh! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: some of them have not showered since -- >> 1985? >> jimmy: right. and the last three, jimmy's choice, i choose one. eric's choice, you get to choose one. or guillermo's choice, guillermo gets to choose one. are you ready for this? >> i'm ready. >> jimmy: guillermo, are you ready? give it a good spin. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we'll find out which terrible bet -- i'm not sure why

there's no good reason for it. >> jimmy's choice. >> jimmy: all right. well, now, typically i would make the choice when i saw who won. i think i'll make the choice now. i think it's more fair that way. >> yeah, i think that's fair. >> jimmy: what i am going to choose is -- i am going to choose the worst one. i am going to choose paint ball in a bounce house. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: may god have mercy on both of us and may the best fan win. erin stonestreet, everybody! >> go kansas city royals! >> jimmy: we have a good show tonight. music from elle king -- where are you going? there's nowhere to go over there. that's not a real city, you can't go into it. ed westwick is here. be right back with kristen wiig

>> jimmy: how old were you, how fa far away from the john denver concert? >> it was the week after. no, i i don't know. i was a teen. >> jimmy: you were a teen, yes. >> a late teen. >> jimmy: a late teen, yes. have you ever been arrested? >> no -- >> jimmy: good. >> no. i've been pulled over. a lot. >> jimmy: a lot? not a lot. you know. >> jimmy: what's the amount? >> like -- maybe like -- five times. >> jimmy: that's not that bad. >> that's not crazy. then one time we were going to another concert. and i had -- this is terrible -- i had peerbeer in the back seat. we were driving and turned the corner and there was a checkpoint. oh, we're screwed, we're done. the cop came up and he was like, what's all this? i was like, we're taking it to recycling. he was like, okay.

>> i was about 7 or 8 years old. on a holiday. 1996 or around then. >> jimmy: i see. you came with your family. >> came with the family, came to california, went to vegas. we had an amazing time. >> jimmy: did you? where'd you stay in veg gas? >> excalibur? oh! classy, yes. it's like being back home in england, really. >> well, we did the knights of the round table. so we left england to do something that they did 500 years ago in england. >> jimmy: as a 7-year-old you probably didn't have any concept. >> i banged my mug on the desk and had a good time. >> jimmy: your parents probably thought it was ridiculous. >> they're always up for a laugh. >> jimmy: acting is something that you wanted to do from a young age? >> i just had a lot of fun playing dress-up, as it were. >> jimmy: i see. las vegas, what did that -- what kind of an impact did that have on you? >> to this day i find it an incredible place. you've got these amazing

you know. new territory for me. you'll be pleased to know that. >> jimmy: i would hope so. >> to set the context it's a hell of a show. 1982, sunset strip. you've got all of the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll of that era. yes, i'm playing a serial killer. but he's not just the monster that he seems to be. he has a very -- >> jimmy: he's got good qualities too? >> redeeming a specific choice of words. he has this relationship with a character, betty, played by the wonderful erika christensen. and this romance blossoms. they're throwing around the term "romeo and juliet of serial killers." >> jimmy: she's a serial killer too? >> i don't want to spoil it but we go on a bit of adventure together. >> jimmy: wow, okay. you guys will be killing for years and years? >> i mean -- there's a lot of people out there.

>> jimmy: you can't really research a role like this. >> you can but i probably wouldn't be able to be here tonight, i'd be locked up somewhere. it might not have worked out. >> jimmy: your character is a -- does some babysitting on the side? >> yes, another one of the interesting dynamics shall we say. he's a lovely babysitter as well. >> jimmy: listen, when you find a good babysitter. >> you've got to sick with him. through the rough and the smooth. >> jimmy: yeah, obviously. yeah. >> no, but i mean, that's one of the things that really attracted me to the part. it's very unique. it's incredibly interesting and multi-layered. i think when people tune in, it airs tomorrow, please check it out. >> jimmy: are you enjoying being in 1982? >> very much. i was born in '87. >> jimmy: you missed it. >> a little before my time. now i get to, you know, redo it. >> jimmy: there's a lot of music from the '80s? >> we have a fantastic music collection, billy idol, "white wedding" going round in my head.

all of that. we capture the era very well, i think. >> jimmy: you know the stories of the sunset strip and all that stuff that went on? >> i've heard, yeah. what's interesting as well is the way kind of we base our show on a little bit of history. it picks up after the hillside strangler and zodiac killer. we incorporate that part. >> jimmy: you carry on the tradition? >> of serial killers, yes. >> jimmy: do you know a lot about serial killers now? >> i know how to stab a watermelon very well. that's one of the things i have got down. >> jimmy: is that what you do? >> that's what you do. we have the body. the person, the actor. we take them out, move the camera, bring in the watermelon for its moment. the watermelon -- some of them have big egos to be honest. and -- >> jimmy: they don't know what they're in for, they have no idea. they wake up that morning -- >> you're a normal watermelon. next thing you know you're getting stabbed by ed westwick, it's great.

>> jimmy: is that because of the sound? >> it's for the impact and we get -- pack it with blood and it squirts up and it looks fantastic. >> jimmy: does it spoil your appetite for watermelons? >> never was a fan so i find it easy? you don't like watermelon? >> no, i don't. they couldn't have picked a more brilliant person. >> jimmy: wait a minute, you ar psychopath it turns out. >> i am, i am. >> jimmy: i don't think i ever met anybody that doesn't like watermelon. >> well, i don't know yes singled that one out. >> jimmy: have you had a good watermelon? do you feel like maybe you had those england watermelons? >> maybe that was it, i had a bad experience as a child, one tried to bite me or something like that. >> jimmy: this is preposterous. >> it really is. >> jimmy: any other beloved fruits that you dislike? >> no, i stick with my apples and pineapples. >> jimmy: apples and pineapples. >> that's my gang. >> jimmy: congratulations. i hope the show is a big hit.
