Following Halloween, Jimmy Kimmel challenged parents to pretend they'd eaten all of their kids' trick or treat candy, video tape each child's reaction to the bad news and then post it to YouTube. The late-night host shared the results in a video -- and the kids were pissed. The video has grown exponentially over the past week, with more than 14 million views on YouTube.

HBO has announced that it will debut the highly anticipated pilot to its new series LUCK behind the BOARDWALK EMPIRE finale on December 11th.

This year's Halloween celebration continues the late night show's long-standing tradition of inspired costumes. In previous years, Kimmel and crew have dressed up as Sesame Street characters, children's cereal brand icons and comic book heroes, to name a few. Tune in to find out how they dress this year.
