ABC Legends Jimmy Kimmel and Ted Koppel Reunite for Pre-Oscars Interview

ABC late-night TV legends Jimmy Kimmel and Ted Koppel reunited earlier this week for an Oscars-focused interview that aired today on CBS Sunday Morning.
At the top of the ten-minute segment, we’re taken to the Jimmy Kimmel Live! writers room, where 21 comedy writers are workshopping jokes for the 96th Academy Awards, which Kimmel is hosting tonight on ABC.
Later in the segment, Koppel sits down exclusively with Kimmel and Molly McNearney, the executive producer of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, tonight’s Oscars broadcast ep, and yes, Kimmel’s wife.
McNearney and Kimmel explained their relationship with comedy and one another. McNearney said she is protective of Kimmel “because he is not protective of himself,” adding, “he is much more of a risk taker, and I don’t ever like him getting attacked for anything.” Kimmel responded, “I just want to hear the laugh, it doesn’t really matter how it comes.
