Following his appearance as a presenter at The Oscars across the street, John Travolta was Jimmy's guest for the very first time on Hollywood's biggest night. Travolta revealed the much-anticipated story behind why he accidentally mispronounced Idina Menzel at last year's Oscars and Jimmy shared his love for "Welcome Back, Kotter" and "Saturday Night Fever" with one of his childhood idols.

Jimmy debuted his tribute to the greatest, most prolific and revered acting coach who ever lived -- Jim Kimmel -- in "The Kimmel School of Perfect Acting." This two-part segment features Benedict Cumberbatch, Lupita Nyong'o, Harvey Weinstein, Mila Kunis, Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne, Jeff Bridges, Kristen Bell, Susan Sarandon, Jennifer Aniston, Gary Oldman, Sean Penn, John Krasinski, Emily Blunt, and Matt Damon.
