Jimmy Kimmel, a popular name among the several late-night TV show hosts in the country, revealed his newborn son's health complications just last week in an emotional monologue during his show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live." In the monologue, he also appealed to the people to support the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.

Although Kimmel's monologue, which was a mix of humor and vulnerability, won people's hearts, it drew criticism from others who labeled him an elitist.

As Kimmel returned to his show Monday night after a week's leave, which he had taken for spending quality time with his recovering newborn son, he slammed his critics. Kimmel also attacked Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a Republican lawmaker who will be appearing on the show Tuesday night. Cassidy had earlier suggested that the Senate's upcoming health care legislation should go through a "Jimmy Kimmel test."

It's not the first time Kimmel has pulled up a monologue that reportedly had a far-reaching impact.

1. One of Kimmel's memorable monologue is from 2011 when he made a tribute to his uncle and show regular "Uncle Frank" Potenza .

"As you may have heard, my Uncle Frank, who has been a fixture on our show since our first night on the air in January of 2003 passed away over our vacation," Kimmel said at the show. "He hated vacation, so he decided to ruin ours."

The monologue was a blend of emotions and humor. Kimmel celebrated his uncle's memory with funny anecdotes such as his uncle's hatred for vacations because he loved to come to the show, so much that he would at times get to the taping "10, 11, 12" hours early.

2. In May 2015, when Kimmel's inspiration, David Letterman, retired from the "Late Show," Kimmel had given an emotional monologue. "We had no VCR, so I would have David Letterman viewing parties at my house in the middle of the night," Kimmel shared. "I watched the show every night, I never missed it, but little did I know many years and many pounds later that watching the show was a great education to me."

In the same monologue, Kimmel shared that it was due to Letterman, he got the opportunity of hosting "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Kimmel told his audience: "The reason I have this show is because the executives at ABC saw me when I was a guest on Dave's show and hired me to host this show."

3. When Kimmel's favorite comedian and good friend, Don Rickles, passed away last month, Kimmel gave an emotional monologue again.

Kimmel read letters from Rickles and in one of them, it said: "Dear Jimmy, thanks so much for inviting me to your home for dinner, but to be honest, we would have preferred a three-month trip to Venice, Italy. Love, Don."

4. Kimmel's opening monologue at this year's Oscars was a memorable one as he began by mocking himself. "I've never been to the Oscars before," he said. "And the way you people go through hosts, this is probably my last time here." After that, he shifted the focus of his monolog to Matt Damon, sarcastically poked fun at the "highly overrated" Meryl Streep and cracked jokes about Trump-era America.

5. Toward the end of the Oscars Awards, when presenter Faye Dunaway awarded Oscar for the Best Picture to "La La Land" instead of "Moonlight," Kimmel tried lightening the mood.

“Well, I don’t know what happened. I blame myself for this. Let’s remember, it’s just an awards show. I mean, we hate to see people disappointed but the good news is, we got to see some extra speeches. We had some great movies. I knew I would screw this show up, I really did,” Kimmel joked.
