Honestly if he was just like "yeah I was a complete asshole 20 years ago. I apologize" I wouldn't hold it against him. I believe in the capacity for people to change.

However when asked about the Man Show he claimed it was supposed to be intricate satire, the fact that the audience genuinely liked it disgusted him, and he hated every second of it.

Kimmel was the creator, producer, and head writer. He could have easily changed the format if he truly despised it. Or just got rid of the part where he had scantily clad women dance on trampolines.
