Stanley Cup finals: 2.5M

Jimmy Kimmel: 26M
Maybe the Fox bobbleheads should shut it and check the numbers. Kimmel pulled 15 million viewers last night. Those are not “low ratings,” that’s a beatdown.

“Standing next to Clarence was like standing next to the baddest ass on the planet,” Springsteen wrote. “Together, we told an older, richer story about the possibilities of friendship that transcended those I’d written in my songs.” #RIP
