Jimmy Kimmel returned Tuesday to his late show on ABC after a nearly week-long suspension.
The host delivered an emotional monologue defending free speech, but did not issue an apology.
Nexstar Media Group and Sinclair Broadcast Group, owners of ABC affiliates, continue to keep “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” off their stations.
I don’t think I could watch a single minute of Jimmy Kimmel, but the MAGAts trying to spin it as a low ratings cancellation rather than a political silencing can go fuck themselves.
May I ask why? Genuinely curious.
Maybe they are mixing him up with Jimmy Fallon? Kimmel is perfectly watchable based on the few times I saw him. Can’t stand fake Fallon though.
I don’t care for either. I haven’t liked Kimmel since the days of The Man Show.
Lol, did you actually watch him on the man show? He hated that job, I could see it in his eyes. Corolla, on the other hand, is currently a conservative blogcaster. He needed to pay bills and work through the shit gigs to get where he is.
He’s really not bad, though I don’t watch the show often myself. I’m more a Colbert kinda guy. I’d love to see him restart the Colbert report, as he’s hinted… Or run for office… Or both.
I ignored Kimmel until he started to really promote universal healthcare after having scary medical problems with his child and coming to the realization that for many people, the care he was able to get for his child was out of reach for so many in this country.
After that I started watching him more and I think he seems like a fun and genuine person. He pushes the envelope more than I think most people would expect, but doesn’t come off like a know-it-all. I think most of his show bits are funny, and other celebrities really seem to like him and Guillermo, and I think his people on the street segments are more creative than a lot of other shows.
Anyone that hasn’t thought of him since Man Show are really not giving him a fair shot. That was like 20-25 years ago, he’s developed his own thing.
