Only Jimmy can save the show now. Just like he did before.

Jimmy was supposedly the reason why the OnA duo didn't split back in the day. He's also probablly the best mediator for the two of them, as Opie and Anthony seem to not want to talk to one another anytime soon.

Can he eventually deliver this time around, as the the catalyst that brings Opie and Anthony back?

Or should he just do his own show and just double cross these juveniles?

Jimmy is great. Opie is horrible. Ant is a legend.

I hope OandJ dissolve soon. Just so i can see jim on more comedy central shows. He could be the next Kroll (I hate kroll, but fuck he's all over comedy central.)

Yea I'd love to see a freed Jimmy too, maybe he'd look less dead. Just no more Uncle Mingle, please.

Jimmy should invite them both out to dinner separately, with them thinking they're meeting just Jimmy. Then they show up at a table for two, and with a sealed envelope leaning against some nice yellow roses. No mics. No distractions.
Do you know what this would lead to? Forced conversation. Probably some awkward "how's it going" stuff at first. But eventually real shit. Anger, accusations, yelling, and probably tears. And then it would be settled, then and there. No more tweets, accusations, or speculation. No matter the course of their careers, they're either going to work together or not. Oh, the envelope? Just a paper with four words from the world's sweetest boy. Words we all wish we could say, wish we could admit from deep down in our hearts.
"I love you both."

I'd love to see Jim do voices for cartoons

ron, jimmy and ant should do round robin radio, with guest extraordinaire col.

That would require having a spine. I think after 50 years of being a spineless slug he's not going to change now. His vice show didn't last because it was terrible, it just showed the world that he's not good enough to be on his own. Tranny tranny tranny cock I'm a little Bitch fart joke fart joke tranny is not a good format for a fucking comedy special. How he's managed to dig himself a career at all amazes me, and I doubt he would be even near the Vos level of fame if it wasn't for the show which is why if he left the show, his career would die. The only thing he has going for him are his stupid fucking characters so I think he should have a cartoon show, he can do all his characters and it would probably work.

I disagree with 90 percent of your post, but I never thought about Jimmy having a cartoon. You are absolutely right, that would be brilliant. (No I'm not being sarcastic)

Jim is so talented it's a shame he doesn't have more confidence in himself. I think Jim could be much bigger and more successful if he would take a risk once in awhile. He seems too petrified of loosing everything to make any kind of stand or bold decisions. He had the talent to go off and do his own show or join Ants if he wanted, but he didn't want to take any chances. Which is why as he has said "My career is like a stagnate pond"

itsover

Ant is a turncoat. He played the part of a tough skinned shock jock but now we find out he has been a sensitive baby this entire time. He trashed the show. Its too late now

Jimmy is more worried about saving his money. Especially with Opies awesome contract negotiation style, and the fact he tries to get co-workers fired for being mean to his brother on twatter.

Norton can't save his own standup specials.

As much as I find him entertaining he should get the fuck off of the radio while he still has a good shot at sustainable mainstream success. He'd bring some great perspective to that whole LA comedy podcast circuit, could do some work for Comedy Central or the million other channels there are now that need hosts for random shows. It's 2015, what is he still doing hoveled up in some corner of a building in downtown Manhattan every day?

I love Jimmy, but I think his improv on the radio is way better than his stand-up.
