What happened to the "Old" host of Win Ben Stein's Money?

Jimmy Kimmel's cousin is the new host, what happened to Nancy Pimental?

Been advertising for months that the Kimmel family would duke it out for the spot.

I think the whole "duking it out" advertising was just a gag... it's been known that his brother would be taking over the spot long before those ads starting airing.

But I am curious about what happened to Nancy Pimental. Did she choose to move on to other projects, or was she given the boot?

There was an interesting article on her in the latest Premiere magazine.

She is now a hot screenwriter in Hollywood, having penned the script for the new Cameron Diaz movie. I believe it's called "The Sweetest Thing".

She also writes for South Park.

Maybe she wasn't the funniest person on that show, but I found her to be quite easy on the eyes.

The neighbor on That's My Bush said it best:
"I wasn't sure about this Nancy Pimental before, but now I think I'd definitely let her give me a hand-job."

Actually, it is Jimmy's cousin, not brother, that is taking over.

Wow, that's really pathetic. Gotta love Hollywood nepotism.

His mom was supposed to do a show, at least as a gag. Don't know if it ever happened.

Jimmy started out as the sportscaster on the LA alternative rock KROQ before "making it big." Adam Corolla (sp?) (The Man Show) also did some work there.

Jimmy was on the radio last week talking about his mom doing the show, which is about all I caught before I got to work.

I saw part of the episode with Jimmy and his mom, which aired about a week ago. It was pretty funny. Jimmy's mom looked really young... how old is Jimmy, anyway?
