After ten years of being “bumped” from JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE, Matt Damon finally got his proper revenge on Jimmy Kimmel — he took over his show, booked big name guest stars — including some Kimmel’s never gotten before — to come play, and, oh, yeah, Kimmel had to watch the entire thing while tied up.

If you missed it, it was pretty freaking glorious. But thankfully, ABC has released a whole slew of clips, including celebs thanking Damon for doing this to Kimmel, Kimmel’s failed movie auditions, the rift between BFFs Damon and Ben Affleck, and more…
