JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! {KAMALA HARRIS, MARK HAMILL, JUDAH AND THE LION} (TV)
Summary
One in this series of live late-night talk shows hosted by Jimmy Kimmel. This episode's guests include California junior senator and presidential candidate Kamala Harris, actor Mark Hamill, and musical guest Judah and the Lion.
In his opening monologue, Kimmel touches on the following topics, among others: the arrival of March Madness basketball; C-SPAN's unexciting 40th "birthday"; Donald Trump's petulant ongoing criticism of Democratic candidate Beto O'Rourke and deceased Senator John McCain; a report that he repeatedly lied about his wealth in the past in order to secure loans from Deutsche Bank; Congressman Devin Nunes' legal fight with two satirical Twitter accounts; and the rising popularity of "solomoons," in which newlyweds take separate post-wedding vacations. Kimmel then interviews several members of a wedding party from a viral video in which the best man dramatically fainted from heat exhaustion in the middle of a bridesmaid's singing performance; the best man confirms that he required dental repair and did not, in fact, urinate on himself; and the bridesmaid performs a snippet of an original song.
The first guest, Harris, joins Kimmel and discusses traveling to rural towns and listening to voters' priorities; her family's thoughts on her presidential run and concerns about excessive scrutiny of their normal behavior; her rising poll numbers; thoughts on rival candidates Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders; sharing a name with professional wrestler Kamala, né James Harris; her remarkable resemblance to Kimmel's own mother; her "huge, very modern family"; whether the electoral college should be abolished; her unique presidential qualities, including her leadership skills and history as San Francisco's District Attorney and Attorney General of California; her hopes for continued prosecution of the "deeply corrupt" current administration; her excitement at meeting "Star Wars" legend Hamill backstage; and her extensive work in bipartisan and nonpartisan legislation, including the "civilized" closed meetings of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Next, Hamill takes the stage and discusses his new role as Templar Knight Master Talus on History Channel's "Knightfall," which shoots in Prague and requires extensive hair and makeup time; why the complex role is "out of his wheelhouse"; exploring the challenges of life in the 14th century; vague hints about the upcoming ninth and final "Star Wars" film (later revealed to be subtitled "The Rise of Skywalker"), in which he may or may not appear, as his character seemingly died in 2017's "The Last Jedi"; his corny "dad jokes" on social media; and his early role as Kent Murray on "General Hospital," during which he had to hide his real-life romantic relationship with co-star Anne Wyndham, who played his character's sister, Caroline.
Finally, Judah and the Lion perform "Over My Head" from their new album "Pep Talks." Includes commercials and promos.
