YouTube / Kimmel
I’ve always hated the Dr. Pimple Popper videos. You know the ones I’m talking about because I’ve shared them here on BroBible quite a bit over the years.
It’s a phenomenon I neither understand nor respect. People love watching someone pop a pimple or drain a cyst. It’s like taking the most disgusting aspects of any surgery and injecting it with steroids.
If you need a reminder of just how heinous Dr. Pimple Popper videos can be you can check out this clip which is the Mt. Everest of pimples, or this ear cyst being drained which will haunt your nightmares.
Dr. Pimple Popper went from being a successful doctor and YouTube phenomenon to a successful doctor with a TV show on TLC. I haven’t watched the show yet because I’m not a crazy person, but I think I’ve got the gist of it from having seen her videos in the past.
Dr. Sandra Lee was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night and prior to her making an appearance on the show, a camera crew went around the set and filmed all of the Kimmel staff members reacting to Dr. Pimple Popper videos.
As you can imagine, people seeing these videos for the first time lost their shit:
I think, for me, as someone who’s written about these videos in the past but shared them because I know there are readers out there who love them, this video was perfect. I get to actually see the reaction to this pimple gore instead of having to read the comments about how I’m a sick individual for sharing these clips.
I’ve got zero stomach for this type of content and apparently, I’m not alone.
If Pimple Popping is your thing, just know that you’ve found a home in Dr. Pimple Popper’s TV show on TLC.
