Very similar to Letterman and Norm Macdonald's running gag in the 90s where Dave bumps Norm for not making it to the studio for reasons, while Norm is bewildered in the end credit roll.
I think Kimmel’s inscription would be more hardcore, Matt Damon’s got the Boston insult humor. And he doesn’t quit. Imagine it lasted till old age. But I also think this is an act. And Kimmel was fat, I’ve never seen Matt Damon actually Fat to that extent
For those asking how the feud started. . . it was actually due to a off the cuff remark that Kimmel made at the end of one of his early shows. . . . Early on, the ratings were not that great, and the producers had a hard time booking big-name celebrities. So night after night, at the end of his shows, Kimmel would thank his guests. . . .and then one night, as he's reading off who was just on, Kimmel, either as a funny joke to make the booking people laugh or just feeling exasperated at the low ratings, happened to throw out the 'apologies to Matt Damon, we ran out of time. . .' phrase. The producers and bookers and the audience loved it, and the rest I could tell you, but I am out of time.
its so weird when funny (and i guess authentic) joke like this got so underappreciated but then the lame overused ones like "we must protect this man at all cost" or "i was about to comment this" got thousands of likes lol
Jimmy is ABC's first and successful late night host and he is still on the air. They won't be getting rid of him til he is Leno's age . Plus he is under Disney dollar so he is making bank now. The only reason he kept doing the bit on Matt Damon was because he was losing rating. Him pissing on Matt Damon literally saved his show. Every time he would shit on Matt Damon his ratings would go up. Look up the interview on it. Jimmy tells the story.
Yes. 'Genius'. That is definitely the word to describe it. Not some person working on solving the COVID-19 crisis, nor Ebola and other hemorrhagic fevers, nor robotics that can operate on Mars. No. The real genius is Matt Damon and Jimmy Kimspiel or whatever his name. Astounding. Thanks for all you've done for society, Matt and Jimmy.
@@LeatherCladVegan Woah! woke person alert!! Probably graduated from an unknown university from nowhere and now claims he's a level higher than everyone else alert!!
Kimmel has said that he didnt know how to close the show the first time. Thats why he said "Sorry Matt Damon we rsn out of time" the first time. And it just took of from there. The fact that they decided to run with it for 15 years is just brilliant
It's funny how many can see good acting in a movie, and say "thats good acting!". But when an actor does same thing in real life, "thats not acting, that looked real"..... lol
Same, I think it’s because Matt is doing the heavy lifting here. He has amazing comedic instincts, especially for someone more well known for being a dramatic actor. Jimmy is a good straight-man foil to Matt though, I’ll give him that.
This 'feud' has always been so much fun. I can't believe I missed the 'Dr Phil' part but I am so glad I watched this compilation and so just saw it for the first time.
The obvious love these two have for one another and their families and people around the world is absolute glory to watch. The great stress relief is SILLY and not taking things so seriously that real problems can't be addressed. Jimmy Kimmel, Matt Damon; I have enjoyed your silliness since that first night time ran out. I had NO idea at that moment this would grow into so many years of laughter. My best hopes for you both, your families, friends and careers so people can continue to enjoy your creativity and human kindness. I laughed SO much during this that I know years were added to my life. Thank you!
I didn't know about this running joke when I first tuned into Jimmy Kimmel many years ago, and two nights in a row I believed that Matt Damon had really been bumped for whoever had been on. The second night, I thought, "Matt Damon is way more A list than (whoever had been on), he's not going to want to come back!" Then it hit me that it's a pre-recorded show, and I thought, "Couldn't they have found some window of time where Jimmy Kimmel could've interviewed Matt Damon, and aired it already??" I was quite indignant on Matt Damon's behalf. 😂 Third night in a row I tuned in, and Jimmy Kimmel said apologies to Matt Damon, etc, the penny finally dropped; I thought, "This must be a running joke." WHOOSH. 😂
At 9:05 when Jimmy emphasised that Matt wasn’t a guest, it would have been even funnier if the camera just zooms in on both Jimmy and Ben, cropping Matt out of the shot entirely while he talks. 😂
One of the few funny things jimmy has done on his show. Great idea by him and his writing team. Apparently Damon had no idea for a little while this was going on.
Jimmy Damon is a great actor. He would make a great SNL regular. Seeing him act in these skits with Matt Kimmel reminds me of other talk show hosts turned actors like Greg Kinnear and Arsenio Hall.
They put soo much work into this running feud. Funny as hell. For some reason I’m still leaning towards the Paul Rudd/Conan joke. It started much earlier and it was handled like a fine wine. This running joke was handled like some noisy neighbors next door.
1.9 MILLION VIEWS, and not even 2K LIKES?!?! What is wrong with people who don’t just hit the freaking like button?!?! I mean COME ON! You just took 21 minutes of your life to watch this awesome video the creator put together, but you can’t take a 1/2 a second to hit the like? I’ll never understand that. 🤯🤷♀️
I always liked the real question and Matt's reaction to that question. 2:22 *Wait a sec!!! This is a real question? What? Did he asked me a real question?
This is so good. Matt is so convincing as a crazy guy and Jimmy is so good at being an ass that, unlike Conan, I think he might actually be a mean person.
You rule Jason Lange! Even tho you didn't put every piece of every bit on here, kudos to you for editing everything we want from this unbelievable late night talk show bit that is beyond hilarious. And thank you @ABC & @JKL for leaving it up.
It would’ve been hilarious if when Matt storms out instead he sits down and crosses his arms and pouts, saying, “I’m not leaving, I’m not going anywhere!” 😂
After watching Matt Damon on Hot Ones, he should said this role as his best. I hope at Kimmel's retirement Damon will be the last guest as interview and they will recap all those antics they did with this very long gag.
I think they're two different types of entertainment and they both have their merits. Matt Damon is my all-time favorite actor and I didn't know he was as funny as he turns out to be the whole Matt Damon Jimmy Kimmel and occasionally Ben Affleck is hilarious
I have to admit. This is pure genius from the producers. Over a decade this “feud” has been going on. I loved it every since.
it was Kimmel's idea, and matt didn't even know about it for many months apparently
How often? Every week?
Very similar to Letterman and Norm Macdonald's running gag in the 90s where Dave bumps Norm for not making it to the studio for reasons, while Norm is bewildered in the end credit roll.
The best running gag in late night history.
😊😊
Matt's gravestone will read: "Here lies Matt Damon. He ran out of time."

Yes! It is a very cleverly crafted ruse! Haha, it is very funny.
@@LeatherCladVegan it’s a joke. The whole thing is

Matt committed to this like crazy.
He is, I know he's not, but part of me just wants to belive he is in guest room at the studio as we speak. lol
Almost as hard as he committed to his Harvey Weinstein pretense.
He really has and he plays it sooo perfectly
I love that this started as a joke to make the show seem like it was bigger than it was, but Matt had a great sense of humor about it..

On the VERY LAST EPISODE EVER, he should have Matt as the final guest that night.
And we are waiting for that episode😂✌️🏼👏🏼👏🏼
He should be his only guest that night
& run out of time before the interview starts
Matt damon's the final guest and "sorry matt damon we're all out of time" 🥺

it got old when damon shilled for NFTs
@ProtMythic
Cool story. No one cares. Your problem, not others
I think this may have been the most genius decision anyone on tv has ever made
And it all started from a throw away line that Kimmel thought was funny.
@@Pavium it sorta started with a video sarah silverman did.
Kimmel has said that he didnt know how to close the show the first time. Thats why he said "Sorry Matt Damon we rsn out of time" the first time. And it just took of from there. The fact that they decided to run with it for 15 years is just brilliant
@@vforwombat9915 No, it started before that with the throwaway line. That’s WHY she made the video.
@@katrose5179 yeah, i found that out after had posted. i had completely misremembered.
I love how Mark Ruffalo just seems to be enjoying how funny the skit is. More like a regular fan...
Cause how great he is! Lovely guy!🥰
Cos he just is amazed by everything.
Whenever Matt Damon has a new project coming out I get so excited because I know that means we will get some sort of appearance on Jimmy Kimmel
💯 that is exactly why I searched new Damon vs kimmel material today since his new movie Stillwater is coming out
But, but, he has never been on Jimmy Kimmel because the time run out?
I love how how Kimmel Talks about "We bought a Zoo", it's brilliant
Yes. This is how we distract the plebeians.
Never knew Matt Damon could do impressions. His Dr. Phil is great!!
Yeah, the baldness part was fabulous 😁😁
Did you hear his South African accent in Invictus? He really should have won the Oscar for it. Seriously. He was brilliant
c'mon, don't make a pig out of a peanut
I have never watched Jimmy Kimmel and had no idea this existed. This is too funny and yet another reason to love Matt Damon.
I love him on SNL playing Kavanaugh
I love Matt how he is so chill from the way he handles jokes and pranks even Clooney prank him alot 🤣
According to Brad Pitt, you do /not/ want to be on the receiving end of a Clooney prank -- the guy is *vicious*. XD
Matt Damon was pretty convincing when he got angry at jimmy
It's like the guy's an actor !
he would definitely make a great actor
It's funny how many can see good acting in a movie, and say "thats good acting!". But when an actor does same thing in real life, "thats not acting, that looked real"..... lol
Such amazing talent
Now I understand why Matt Damon aged so fast in the last 15 years.....he has been in two different marriages during those years!
And having an affair with Molly
It's 💰
normally really not a fan of kimmel but this gag is pretty damn fun
Same, I think it’s because Matt is doing the heavy lifting here. He has amazing comedic instincts, especially for someone more well known for being a dramatic actor. Jimmy is a good straight-man foil to Matt though, I’ll give him that.
@@Falconer22
That's still one more than Fallon

@@LeatherCladVegan Have you seen Dogma or Good Will Hunting?
@@Сайтамен Yes.
At this point Matt Damon has appeared on the show more than anyone else, but he’s never been on the show as a guest.
Unfortunately they seem to keep running out of time 🤷♀️ 😂
Is that right??? Lol
Matt is so cool for doing these... because he doesn’t have to.
Best Running Joke in The HISTORY of Comedy! .... the next installment is LONG over due.
I’ve rewatched these “appearances” dozens of times and this theme never gets old! Sublime!
Matt Damon is the coolest guy! Great move of Jimmy
The funniest part to me is when he disguised as Dr.Phil, walked on stage and said “I made it” 🤣🤣 ☠️
This 'feud' has always been so much fun. I can't believe I missed the 'Dr Phil' part but I am so glad I watched this compilation and so just saw it for the first time.
Maintaining this joke at such high quality levels -- chefs kiss.
Why do I want Matt Damon to be a villain in the MCU or DC universe? Why do I feel that he'd make an awesome villain? Is it just me?
He played a fake Loki in Thor 3 and 4.
@@СайтаменHe actually played Loki in DOGMA
It’s kinda nice of Jimmy to let Matt get a little payback from time to time

4 years later I am still watching this and laughing out really loud! 😂😂😂
THE IRONY. He’s been the show all along.
for the first minute we watch as jimmy gets thinner and thinner...
They should have added the bit where Sarah Silverman sang a song to Jimmy about being with Matt Damon
Lol like when he asked what's going on she should've just sung the 1 line chorus 😂😂😂
I loved Jimmy's response, I'm fucking Ben Affleck 😂😂
I just love Matt Damon! He’s just the best!!! Funny as Hell!
The Matt Damon bits on Jimmy Kimmel are the best. LOL 😆
For sure !
My favourite was when Guillermo was in the bourne ultimatum movie video 😂
Never really watched Jimmy. Whoever came up with this and knew it would work from the beginning is a genius!
At 9:05 when Jimmy emphasised that Matt wasn’t a guest, it would have been even funnier if the camera just zooms in on both Jimmy and Ben, cropping Matt out of the shot entirely while he talks. 😂
They did, but they cut it out in this video
I had no idea this joke went this far lol
And I can think of a few that aren't even on here LOL
One of the few funny things jimmy has done on his show. Great idea by him and his writing team. Apparently Damon had no idea for a little while this was going on.
Thank you for putting this together.
I absolutely love these 20+ year old feuds on late night TV. It's the BEST to the fans who've seen it from the beginning. These two are hilarious 😂😂😂😂
"The Unborn Identity"
So goddamn good
That was hysterical. They are hysterical together. I love both Jimmy and Matt; and Ben.
Jimmy Damon is a great actor. He would make a great SNL regular. Seeing him act in these skits with Matt Kimmel reminds me of other talk show hosts turned actors like Greg Kinnear and Arsenio Hall.
Vision: We are out of time
Matt Damon: NOOOOOOO!!!!!
I can't believe they didn't use the Sarah Silverman bit "I'm F$@king Matt Damon"
Or Jimmy’s revenge song with “I’m F**king Ben Affleck”
I was gonna say the same, that was a fun bit
Yeesss one of the most important clips
I don't know what the algorithm was thinking, but IT GOT IT RIGHT!!! I never knew that Kimmel was humorous but this was breathtaking. ::swoon::
They put soo much work into this running feud. Funny as hell. For some reason I’m still leaning towards the Paul Rudd/Conan joke. It started much earlier and it was handled like a fine wine. This running joke was handled like some noisy neighbors next door.
Me too. It was really funny how Conan reacted on his last show as Rudd showed the clip one last time.
The one where Ben Affleck sneaks him in via the fat suit is too funny
Be would have been so jealous of Matt as he got so much appreciation by the audience , they went crazy !
It's still my favorite. Damon wrapped around Affleck like he was hugging a tree. Epic.

That maury bit was priceless his wife is so cool, and really funny
If it was the real maury i would of lost my shit
I thought Martin did a decent job as Maury though.
I had to look more carefully that is Martin Short as Maury 😂 Hilarious skit
Their acting is actually insanely good.
What do you mean "their acing"? They are actually LIVING it..
This is just brilliant, this joke has never got old. Brilliant entertainment. Both genius.
THEY REALLY WENT TO COUPLE'S THERAPY. The commitment of Matt and Jimmy in this skit
NO DISLIKES. That’s a rarity people, savor this while it last.
It lasted until you said something and 200 trolls instantly disliked it lol
Loved the video but disliked your comment. :-)
I hope when Kimmel retires the last line is "Sorry Matt Damon, but we ran out of time"
This is one of the greatest long running jokes of all time. Like it’s used the perfect amount so it never gets annoying. Just hilarious every time
My husband and I love Matt Damon. He might be the nephew we never had but should have.
I was feeling bummed about something or other, watched this, and now I feel better. Thank you!

or

This hands down.
Defenitely another great long running one for sure!

This.
Paul Rudd, cuz it's genuine

On Matt's tombstone they should put "Sorry Matt ran out of time".

Hah, All this footage and they didn't even put in the "I'm F**king Matt Damon" bit.
Sarah Silverman bit.
Nor the follow up: "I'm F***ing Ben Affleck"
And on top of everything, that song turned out pretty good too!
The "I'm F***ing Ben Affleck" one however was a bit of an overproduced ... thing.
"Should i call the wambulance?" is crazyy 😂😂
That had me dying 😂😂
My favorite segment is "The One That Matt and Ben are in Tandem" (Matt pops out of Ben's Coat..!!!!) 😂😂
Did anyone make that connection that Matt Damon was in Thor Ragnorake which is why he interrupted the Thor Cast.
Good catch. He was fake Loki!
Oh yeahhhh that's right lol
I miss all of these bits!!! Still crack me up 🤣!
Waiting for Matt Damon to have another comeback
He should just go on the show and tell jimmy he’s Leonardo DiCaprio
The therapy sessions are the BEST
Jimmy Kimmel is a great actor. Change my mind!
Bette Davis and Joan Crawford wish they had a rivalry like this.
This is what Jason Bourne would totally do keep finding a way to sneak into Jimmy Kimmel live.
After watching Matt Damon on Hot Ones, he should said this role as his best. I hope at Kimmel's retirement Damon will be the last guest as interview and they will recap all those antics they did with this very long gag.
I love these gags always worth a good watch.
Okay that's enough, I can't handle anymore.. Somebody plz give this guy another Oscar...
I rember watching and was like why does he always say that!? The build up is hilariously genius! 😂😂
The Unborn Identity...that was pretty cool
I wanted Martin to tell Jimmy he wasnt the father also, then....Ben Affleck struts in hehe
didn't think of Affleck as the father (would have been gret tho ^ç^) but yeah I waited for Jimmy not being the father either ;)
Looks like there was more to that clip, but got cut short for this video. Maury was holding another envelope and was about to open it.
and that`s what happened xD Check the whole clip
They need to keep this feud going
Matt Damon is far more entertaining in the Jimmy Kimmel feud then he is in most of his movies.
I think they're two different types of entertainment and they both have their merits. Matt Damon is my all-time favorite actor and I didn't know he was as funny as he turns out to be the whole Matt Damon Jimmy Kimmel and occasionally Ben Affleck is hilarious
EVEN YEARS LATER THIS IS STILL HILARIOUS! THEY NEED TO DO A MOVIE TOGETHER. So glad they got Martin Short in on this 14:53 🤣😂👏
Absolutely love these guys
Love it! Needed the laughter, thank you boys!!
