Jimmy Kimmel parachuted onto the stage to kick off the 95th Oscars Sunday night and soon began firing off one-liners at the celebrities in attendance -- and some who were conspicuously absent.

Among those missing from the Dolby Theatre but still a key element in Kimmel's monologue: Will Smith, who earned himself a 10-year ban from the Oscars after storming the stage and slapping Chris Rock last year.

    Will Smith deserves this. As much as I love Will Smith, assaulting a person for a joke is totally uncalled for, especially for such an innocuous joke.

    Andrew’s reaction when he called him Spider-Man was priceless

    Not the biggest fan of Jimmy Kimmel but that was actually a great opening monologue.
  • 10:20 😂😂😂😂😂 omg I’m glad I waited. “Just do what you did last year. Nothing. Absolutely nothing

    Will Smith ruined what should have been the greatest night of his acting career. A year later we are still talking about his stupidity and how his wife cheated on him with his Son's friend. Let that be a lesson to everyone, the angry mind is a narrow mind. WHen you are angry you only think about what you wanna do to the other person, you never think about what can happen to you when its all done.

    The slap was one thing. Ruined Will's legacy forever. But the Oscar win after he did it was the thing that killed Hollywood for me.

    Love how Brendan applauds for everyone until his name is called. Man is way too humble to clap for himself
  • After Will Smith slapped Chris, some people went on to comfort Will, such double standards. Will got standing ovation and hugs after he won. Kudos to Jimmy Kimmel for calling out those people 👏 😂
  • Jimmy did a great job at roasting will smith, that was hilarious. "Just do what you did last year, nothin', just sit there and do nothing"

    10:52 "Tangle with Spider-Man." Everyone came through with a look. Then this guy. That smile. I couldn't stop laughing. I'm done. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    "Sit there and do absolutely nothing. Maybe even give the assailant a hug!" 🤣🤣
  • @paulk.8555
    Lmao. I didn't even know The Oscars happened until today. Last year I knew it the next morning because of Will Smith memes 💀😂
  • @narcology9463
    kudos to Jimmy Kimmel. Well done hosting Oscars 2023. Love how he always acknowledges Guillermo. And he wasn't hypocritical and didn't pretend violence happened in the Oscars last year. Well handled.
  • Brandon Fraser’s first time being nominated in the acting category…? That’s insane💯
  • @jondoe4052
    I can imagine Denzel and Will still hugging each other on couch this time.
  • All the people who applauded for Will Smith and then gave him an award after assaulting the host. Despicable behavior. Hollywood is morally bankrupt.
