They had us in the first half, not gonna lie.

Haha, got me good. They deserve an Emmy for editing

When Jimmy Kimmel was in the audience 😂

The fact that people think this is real is going to lead people to stop caring, mark my words

I was so confused as to why they had an audience, and without masks, at least, and then it broke my heart when the audience just disappeared and Jimmy was alone on the stage. 🥺

You can't have a virus without a host😂😂😂

2:05 "Television is your big brother." *1984's George Orwell has entered the chat*

For everybody wondering: This year the Emmys are virtual. Those people sitting there are not really there...

Not gonna lie, every time Kimmel does a monologue i was expecting Matt Damon to showed up XD

It's too sad when you realized that Jimmy is alone at theater 😭

That was creepy like a Twilight Zone episode.

This is so irresponsible. How can Jimmy do this without Guillermo?

What the hell😂😂 I was so convinced it was full

On soon as I saw that wall of screens I realized we're in the Matrix.

Let's take a moment to appreciate the effort of the people who give time stamps for every video,

8:12 chris evans laughing lmaoo

I would watch the emmys with Jason Bateman being the only audience there

That was so clever and creative. I knew it had to be last year, but still, well done Jimmy!

Doing something this creative, funny, clean and live in 2020 is what makes America great. Loved it.

07:50 The Emmy statue holding up a hand sanitizer sums up 2020 perfectly. 😂✌

Looks like this is how the Oscars going to be next year...

"This is the year they decide to have a host" 😂😂😂

Jason Bateman literally never ages, he looks so damn good! He's literally 51 and he is still so damn attractive!!!

It was an incredible Emmy. I saw until the end. I really enjoyed watching, congratulations

They had me excited for a minute like finally we go back to normal

“ you can’t have a pandemic without a host “ 👏🏻😄

That was a clever and creative approach to the awards show!!! Way to go, Jimmy!

The moment Jimmy was in the audience 😂😂😂😂 too funny

I ain't gotta lie, I got bamoozled with that editing, creds to them. And I miss jimmy right now.

Before you comment about the audience... .... watch till the end.

Finally u re back to work Jimmy

Not gonna lie, they had us in the first half

Lmao 😂 u are the greatest jimmy glad your back to make us laugh

They could have pretended to perform in front of a live crowd till the end. It's weird to hear the jokes without crowd reaction.

@Jimmy Kimmel Live - It's very good to see you again!!!

They should add digital audiences like this to the late night shows. It's really weird hearing them tell jokes and then hearing dead silence lol

comment section full of people can't bother to watch more than 5 minutes of the video before commenting.

Why was I even expecting a virtual Emmy ceremony to be a giant worldwide pajama party? 🙃

This was fantastic. Amazing work to everyone involved. Sometimes the right way is the hard way, but it's worth it if you can show the people that safety should be the N° 1 priority in times of crisis.... I don't know how that became a question of debate.

Yes!!!!!!! “Uh yeah I’m out! Tony where are you parked?!” I’m dead lol. Great editing!!

Thank you for your efforts Jimmy! All of this was well put together! Thanks to the team and academy :)

WATCH UNTIL THE END BEFORE SAYING SOMETHING STUPID IN THE COMMENT SECTION

MC Lyte stays getting a bag! She's been doing the voice work for the BET Awards for years and now the Emmy's! ❤ Also, the editing on this was superb!

0:40 "You can't have a virus without a host." LOL

My goodness the amount of stupidity in the comments is hilarious. This is what happens when you jump to conclusions. WATCH TILL THE END!!

My favourite show so far!! Jimmy is killing it!! 😁

Great job Jimmy! I enjoyed the show very much!

This was fantastic! Missed you Jimmy

we need ricky gervais hosting every award show

Prisoners? U should see ellen being a prisoner in her own home.

“I want Mario Lopez to ask about my pants” lmao

I knew it... I fast forwarded to the end and saw what was the plan. Genius....but frankly for the first 10 seconds, I could not believe my eyes.

Legit thought he’d died. Guest hosts on the show for 3 months..

Wow it's great to finally see jimmy kimmel again.🤙 Love the reveal

It got me teary eyed to see the end part. Can’t wait to get back to where we are before.

It is wonderful to see Jimmy Kimmel again. Fine, it is a montage, but still, it is like seeing an old friend. XX

I miss you Jimmy muahhhh

Yess, I’m sure Quibi totally deserved those 10 nominations and this isn’t an elaborate back door marketing scheme at all.

Damn! this is so amazing, and it was live

You actually tricked me. Good job 😂😂

Jimmyyyyy You have given me energy I needed this 😂😂

I actually believed that show was going on worh the audience

You had me during the first half... Bravo

That was awesome 👏!!

4:46 me telling a joke in my head 4:55 also me laughing at my own joke

Bruh you can clearly notice and see this is not really the audience being there I don‘t know what all the fuss is about in the comments

For a min they got me but I rewatched 2017 emmy's monologue so much I knew something was off

Jimmy kimmel..you have been there for the world during these past awful 4! Years..and I thank you ❤️ so much for keeping me laughing ❣️

I was watching and thinking no way! Hollywood was first in America to take safety precautions. No way would these people we love buy into money vs. health like so many others have. ❤❤❤Looking good Jimmy and thanks to all the talent that allowed their images. I enjoyed it. Laughed out loud. Something I hardly get to do.

“This isn't a MAGA rally" 😹😹

Great Monolog, Jimmy has a really good feel for the room ;-)

I loved this monologue!

Whoa! I thought Jason Bateman was a wax figure till his eyes moved!!!!!! Yeah I'm putting the weed down for the night 🌙

we are actually living the tv show Black Mirror .... *sighs*

Amazing concept in full stream.

aaaaahhhh i am soo updated . i usually watch the emmys after a year or 2

This is funny but kinda sad at the same time wow 2020 is been so confusing and crazy that we don’t know how 2021 it’s going to be

How sad was that, got a crowd full of people then reality sets in and it’s just him :(

Gotta love Jason there. Funniest moment of the whole monologue. 😂

This was hilarious! Good job!

I second, third, and fourth everyone who has voted for an emmy to the editor of this video 😊👍🏾

This is the best thing I've seen so far 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This was brilliant!

Really got me by surprise and the part with Jason Bateman was hilarious!

How many award shows do these people have for themselves in a year????

Just sad there was no Guillermo back to back interviews this year 😭

Holy! Those green screens are awesome! Well played guys, well played!

That was so well done, it smelled a bit funky with some of the reactions seeming a bit fake but then I just figured they are actors, of course they are going to ham it up but WOW did not see that twist coming!

Jimmy Kimmel is one of the few hosts who is getting better with time

I think the audience are from pervious Emmys

7:57 You can see some screens not operating meaning some people having connectivity issues. How ironically real is that.

LOL! WHAT A TWIST! Was wondering why I was having Deja Vu's with some of those crowd shots XD

*Oh my... Look how manyyyy monitors are thereee.*

Bruh imagine how Manny people he fool

Loved this!!!

actually that last part was pretty cool. but I'm glad it didn't go longer than that (it would get old). stay safe!

Chris Evans laugh is everything. It changeg my mood 💙!

And the Emmy for best editing goes to...

Nice compilation. He never would've gotten that many laughs.

Brilliant opening! 👍👍👍👍
