There's nothing like having funny in the family. Who's your favorite family member to prank?
...grow up , for everyones sake.
People of Italian heritage always seem to just have a zest for life. Some ancient, glorious spark. I'd watch an entire show of just Aunt Chippy.
Thank you for noticing. We are a wonderful, crazy bunch.
True!❤️
We do!! Italians love life.
true
Thank you, well said
Aunt chippy and Jimmy really do love each other in spite of his shenanigans 😊❤
Btw I want to see Guillermo's roots
Guillermo DNA tequila 🤪
Yeeeeeees
Me to!!! We have to get him on the show somehow.
Yes Guillermo's roots please
Absolutely. That's why she always participates.❤
Jimmy, your aunt Chippy is a goldmine. You should treasure her and all of your family.
Jimmy has a heart of gold 🧡 - love aunt Chippy too
One thing about Italian families is everybody bust each others ball and nobody takes it personal. It’s how us Italians show our love for each other. At any Italian family gathering, it’s nonstop laughter. Laughter is key to a happy life.
So true. Ball busting is a national sport for us lol
I confirm 🤣
Just like my family!! Loud, boisterous, and funny on the verge of offensive 🤣😂 if we (especially papaw) don't joke with you, we don't like you!
thank god im not italian. that literally sounds like lifetime of trauma to me
thats cool. im irish and we love each other to
Aunt Chippy needs her own CZcams channel. She's hilarious, LOL.😆
Aunt Chippy is precious!!
How can you not love Aunt Chippy and her entire lovely Italian prankster family!
Thanks so much for watching, Kelly! Aunt Chippy really is such a delight. We're glad you enjoyed the clip! 😊
Chippy is funny. She’s also very wise.
I've never seen aunt chippy tear up.....she made me tear up......everyone needs an aunt chippy
Friend of mine is from Iscia and very proud to call Jimmy Kimmel‘s his distant cousin. He has a lot of distant cousins there. We get good laughs out of this.
Aunt Chippy's gotta love Jimmy if their relationship survived his painting her house orange (and all the other pranks he's pulled on her.) 🤣🤣🤣
"Like Jane Goodall" 🤣
Aunt Chippy nailed it.....family is what counts. Love the bond she and Jimmy have. 🙏♥️🇨🇦
What a profound statement from "our" collective beloved Aunt Chippy., who is always such a good sport "things are just things, but people last; they last through generations".
Oh my gosh. I'm gonna tell you right now. Uncle Frank & Aunt Chippy are like my own relatives and I only know them from TV. I cried like a baby when Uncle Frank died and when Aunt Chippy's number gets called, I will mourn as I did when my own Aunt Doris died. Love this family SO MUCH!!
Same. Jimmy is so good at his job as a presenter, but he also never bottled things up so much that he came across as detached or fake or enigmatic like so many other tv personalities do. Where family is concerned, he has always been so sincere. His tribute to Uncle Frank was beautiful, and he made as all feel like part of the family. I cried so much as well... and again years later when I watched it a second time. It was so affecting because Jimmy communicated Frank's passing not as the loss of someone on the show but as the loss of a real person. Jimmy's relatives (Chippy, Frank, Sal, Micki, and others) weren't people he turned into characters for a show; they were characters in real life, so Jimmy let them be themselves and through the magic of tv and the internet they came into our homes and visited just like family would. They're our "Aunt" Chippy, "Uncle" Frank, and assorted "Cousins," and I'd fight anyone who says Micki isn't the nicest person in the world. Because don't talk bad my family!
@@alexplorer So very beautifully written and I'm right there with ya!! They are all The Real Deal, people just like US!! When Micki had her baby sonogram...Oh my gosh! Hysterical!
Aunt Chippy is a trip!😂
Man... Aunt Chippie is right. My mom died in 2021 and I think all the time about her, my grandmother and my great grandmother.
Love this. My older sisters were adopted from Korea to my Irish mom who grew up with Italians. The sense of humor in our family has been passed around forever. My nephews are hilarious. As their auntie, I’m proud of that. I taught them well 😉❤
Nature/Nurture? Comedy overrides.
Haha, this reminds me of me. I always told my sisters that I would teach their children all the bad things.
The ugly face pulling, impressions of certain family members, drinking, smoking, swearing, how to save a buck.
I'm pleased to say that they were good students and quick learners. 😀
@@stephanieyee9784 Brilliant 😊
Yep
I love you Aunt Chippy!
Aunt chippy makes me laugh as no comedian has ever done. She is the best. I love her.
Hi, Marge! We're so glad you enjoyed our clip from Finding Your Roots, featuring Jimmy Kimmel and his Aunt Chippy. We hope you enjoyed watching the most recent season of Finding Your Roots on your local PBS station. As in the past, PBS will show reruns from past seasons nearly every week, usually on Tuesday evenings. Be sure to tune in to PBS next Tuesday night for an amazing episode from Season 9, featuring activist Angela Y. Davis and statesman Jeh Johnson. Have a great evening!
I love their relationship.
Jimmy crying on cue. Aunt Chippy and Uncle Frank are both comedy gold.
Definitely, the warm weather of Italy puts a spark in the inhabitant’s lives 😊
Jimmy Kimmel is so lucky to have such a wonderful Aunt and family. Best wishes always.
Jimmy Kimmel your poor Italian family was the salt of the earth. I take back everything bad I thought or said about you and I know love of family and your just like our family we are British Cherokee people and the Cherokee is mom and her family was loving like the old fashioned Italian family. God bless the FAMILY!
I love aunt chippy. I miss her so much.😢
She was just recently interviewed?
1:47 - "...and, it was from that moment on that I started studying them like Jane Goodall." Haha. Great line.
I was kind of hoping they would prank her and tell her that their roots aren’t Italian lol
This was absolutely beautiful!
I love Aunt Chippy! She is sooo correct- family is more important than material things. We should all learn that lesson.
If Jimmy Kimmel wasn't my favorite host before (he was), he sure as hell is now. I cried right along with him and Aunt Chippy lol!
Love when he did blackface and now virtue signals best bit he has
"Familiy" and "Italians" are synonyms. Look at Jimmy: a chippy of the old block! Bellisimo!
Dang Chippy, now I am crying
Aunt Chippy is a dream auntie. Wish I was party of their family.
Love Aunt Chippy! Touching to see her soft side 🥰
This same Ischia Island that had an Earthquake just had a mudslide a few days ago!!! No stranger to disasters...
I love Aunt Chippy. What a beautiful soul 🥹
How weird that I not only watched this video today, but just now read there was a horrible landslide on that island today. So odd!
Yay chippy alive still yes bless the Lord for her !
Chippy is simply a natural comedian 💚🤍❤
Jimmy has a wonderful hilarious family
Many thanks for checking out another incredible clip from this episode of Finding Your Roots, Khanh Khanh! Each episode tells a different story and offers up amazing insights into past generations and the challenges they faced. Make sure to visit us over on our FB page too to dive into our back catalog of great videos on all things family history: facebook.com/AncestryUS/videos/?ref=page_internal. Enjoy and happy Halloween on behalf of all our team! 🎃👻🎇
@@AncestryUS ❤❤❤
Never been so glad I accidentally “clicked” on a video. So lovely!
This is pure gold! Whoever came up with this format of showing these two simultaneously is a genius! Ancestry’s CZcams channel, and online platforms in general, has so much untapped potential for great marketing programming that can connect the past in ways that’s still relevant and culturally relatable to the times. I wish I could pitch ideas to the head of their Marketing Strategy Director to bounce some ideas and partner with them. But, good work guys!
Thank you Jimmy Kendall for your humor for the love you have for the people. Things can look so negative across America but you have that way of turning negative into positive and giving us a night of Unforgettable humor thank you again Jimmy Kendall I'm a 76 year old great grandmother that truly values what God has given you
Love you aunt Chippy.
aunt chippy loves jimmy and cousin sal as much as her children. and it's so lovely to know that chippy's daughter works with jimmy and cousin sal😊
Aint Chippy is a precious gem
Connection at its finest❣️ Love you, Aunt Chippy & Jimmy!!! Two amazing souls!!!
♥️❤️♥️
"Don't tell him that, he'll take advantage of me." 🤣🤣
ha! ha! Totally can relate to the photo of taking a little sip of Vermouth as a baby! Chin! Chin!
Very funny family! Jimmy is very lucky to have had such a family
Love Aunt Chippy ❤️
"He and I are crying at the same time. What the hell is wrong with us, Jimmy?" 🤣 I can't even
Just so beautiful how emotional they get 😢
I love Aunt Chippy! Italians are such wonderful people and many of my late mother's friends were Italians. They taught me many things, especially cooking Italian food. Aunt Chippy makes me laugh and so does Jimmy Kimmel.
I wholeheartedly agree that Italians are wonderful people.
My big Sister had a few Italian guy friends & they knew how important it was for us to open our front door wide & welcome any passing people inside for respite during Passover Seder. Every year, two of her Italian guy friends would ask what time dinner would be served (between our Passover prayers), & every year they would show up, join us for dinner, clear their plates, wish us a Happy Pesach, & leave us to finish our prayers.
And every year, my big Sister would join them for Midnight Mass at the Catholic Church two streets over from our house, & The Feast of San Gennaro.
Now that is what I call FAMILIA!
I spent many a covid night watching this program and have so much respect for Dr Gates and the wonderful people at PBS. Thank you for helping all if us get through a terrible time.
Happy Holidays to all!
What a sweet family. 😋
A softer side to Aunt Chippy! I need to see this episode. So cool that he has roots in Ischia. Beautiful island.
Love this family!!!❤️
I like Jimmys Aunt Chippy she's very funny and smart.Jimmy is also proud of you Aunty.God bless.
Jimmy...I got teary eyed too over this. I'm Italian and my parents were born there.We grew up w lots of joking too.God Bless
Love you guys so much. Aunt Chippy, you are really so so sweet.
This was so wonderful and heartwarming to watch. Love Aunt Chippy & genuinely appreciate Jimmy.

This was wonderful. I really enjoyed Aunt Chippy
Hi, we are glad to see that you enjoyed this video. Thanks for watching!
I want an Aunt Chippy! 🥲🥹
What a great family Jimmy has!
I Love aunt chippy , Jimmy including her in his show is wonderful lol
"People last through generations" ❤
I love this channel ! So incredibly interesting! My great grandmother hired someone to trace our roots all the way back to the 1500s !! I have the full family tree with dates and all. It is so exciting to learn about your heritage.
Jimmy is truly a genius in having the gift to talk and really listen and hear others. And Aunt Chippy is the Sonny of Jimmy’s Cher. Cher was the star but Sonny kept her grounded. Thank God for Aunt Chippy ! ☺️🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you've been able to lean so much about your own roots! We hope you continue to enjoy the videos we post!
I have worked in epiginetics. Dr. Gates is my hero....and the guests the best. 💙
Hehe, aunty Chip is one of a kind! 🥰😁 She is awesome! ❤️🙏🤗
I love aunt chippy 🥰
Good ole Campagna. Thats where the awesome people are from
What an awesome aunt to grow up with. She's a big part of Jimmy certainly.
I know it's a little too late now but if I know Jimmy like everybody knows Jimmy it would have been really funny to make a mock-up family history at his aunt chippy's expense just to see the look on her face would have been priceless
I love aunt chippy 😆 she's soo sweet
Her: just give us the roots
Me: wrong jimmy 😂❤
Jimmy: "Its important for people to know their family". To all the adoptee's, Godspeed in your search. And may government open the doors needed to fulfill that Great task!
Such a wonderful thing, to know your family history. Auntie Chippy is an amazing lady 🙂
Lovely family. I'm sure you all have your moments. Wishing you all more beautiful memories together. And lots of laughter. Will you adopt me? I'm only "74." You wouldn't have to put up with me for very long because I'm almost dead. Also, I'm disabled, so I can't travel. See, I'd be low maintenance. And I'm very funny and silly.
Jimmy looks like he's getting younger!
What a great lady, Aunt Chippy!
I get emotional when I think about my grandma Sarah ❤ miss her so much, wish I knew more about her family from Italy.
Love Aunt Chippy so much
Can I borrow your auntie ? She is my type..! 😂😂😘🙏💚🌺💗💖🔥
How can you not love Aunt Chippie? ❤ Jimmy too. 🥴🥰🤣
You say something so loving and kind to me and I will get better and come learn your tecipies and cook with you!
Watch out!
Jimmy might send his kuds! 😆🤗😘
The first gen on the Italian side were all funny, it's been lost in my family.
I love Aunt Chippy. I saw the episode where he painted her house orange. OMG.
Best episode ever and she wasn't even in it ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Loves aunt Chippy's wisdom
I love Aunt Chippy, she is hilarious!
Thanks for getting in touch. We're glad you enjoyed the clip! 🙂
