It has certainly been quite the day.

Following the Brett Kavanaugh hearing, Jimmy Kimmel was full of praise for Christine Blasey Ford, whose testimony captivated America.

"She was polite, likeable, well spoken and more than anything, it was striking to see someone questioned before the Senate that actually answered questions. I think that's a first," Kimmel said on Thursday night.

On the other hand, the late show host was less enthusiastic about Kavanaugh.

"One thing we know for sure is that Brett Kavanaugh is the world's worst celebrity spokesperson for beer," Kimmel said, before throwing to all the times the Supreme Court nominee said "beer."

Kimmel also brought up the fact that the Kavanaugh camp doesn't want the FBI to get involved, and how Kavanaugh's high school friend Mark Judge, who was in the room when the alleged assault took place, wasn't called in to testify.

"It's like questioning Beavis but not Butthead," Kimmel quipped.
