  • March 5, 2006

After the Academy Awards was the 39th episode of the fourth season of Jimmy Kimmel Live! In this special episode, which aired the night after the 79th Academy Awards ceremony in 2007, Jimmy Kimmel and his team celebrated the winners, losers, and memorable moments of the evening.

The episode began with a monologue in which Kimmel shared his thoughts on the Academy Awards, including his commentary on several of the night's biggest stories. He then introduced his first guests of the night, Uma Thurman and Zach Braff, who had co-starred in the film My Super Ex-Girlfriend.

The two discussed their experience working together, as well as their thoughts on the Oscars. They were followed by the legendary singer Tony Bennett, who talked about his long career in music and shared stories about his collaborations with other famous artists.

Other notable guests included actress Rosario Dawson, who discussed her recent movie projects, and comedian Cedric the Entertainer, who chatted with Kimmel about his life and career. The musical guest for the evening was indie rock band Spoon, who performed a track from their latest album.

Throughout the episode, Kimmel also featured several humorous segments, including a mock commercial for an Oscar-themed board game and a segment in which he ordered food from a drive-thru while dressed as a tuxedo-clad Academy Award statue.

One of the highlights of the episode came towards the end, when Kimmel debuted a star-studded video in which several celebrities read some of the meanest tweets they had received from Twitter users. The segment, which has since become a recurring feature on the show, garnered widespread attention and praise from viewers and online media outlets alike.

Overall, After the Academy Awards was a fun and entertaining episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! that celebrated the biggest night in Hollywood while also poking fun at some of its more ridiculous aspects. With plenty of celebrity guests, humorous segments, and memorable moments, it was a great way to cap off a night of glitz and glamour.
