3-4 episodes missed? Shortest indefinite hiatus ever!

I don’t watch his show but I’m glad that he’s back. Anyone that doesn’t like him, then don’t watch. Problem solved.

Obviously Disney blinked, right?

I’m interested to see what happens in LA. The company that owns the stations that said that they would preempt his show owns the LA station that airs his show. Maybe he won’t be on in LA or maybe they’re going to cave as well.

I really think the company blinked. I wonder how many people protested by canceling their Disney +, Hulu and other Disney streaming stuff. Perhaps advertisers on ABC owned stations pulled their spots.

Just random thoughts......Money talks.

That doesn’t make sense. KABC is an O&O, which means it’s owned by ABC instead of being an “affiliate.”

All 4 networks have O&Os in NY and LA.

ABC. His show was paused, not cancelled. The problem is that the show is another money pit. Disney loves to lose money, while setting IP’s on fire, look what they’ve done to the Star Wars franchise. Not that it matters. As for Jimmy, he’ll be lucky to last until the beginning of next year, considering that his contract will expire before then. If he gets cancelled, then good riddance. Late night comedy TV is going the way of the automat.

I'd bet on a return of the automat before late-night TV ever gets retooled as it ought to be.

Jimmy Kimmel Live…Sinclair and Nexstar pre-empting

Sinclair will preempt Jimmy Kimmel's show despite Disney ending its suspension

Sinclair Broadcast Group announced Monday that it would preempt ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” when it returns Tuesday night.

“Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will be preempting ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming. Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show’s potential return,” the company’s statement read.

Sinclair, which operates 30 ABC affiliates, previously joined Nexstar, another owner of ABC affiliates, in preempting Kimmel’s show last week after he made controversial comments regarding Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin.

“Mr. Kimmel’s remarks were inappropriate and deeply insensitive at a critical moment for our country,” Sinclair Vice Chairman Jason Smith said in a statement.

At the time, Sinclair said that it would not lift its suspension until after discussions with ABC.

“Sinclair also calls upon Mr. Kimmel to issue a direct apology to the Kirk family. Furthermore, we ask Mr. Kimmel to make a meaningful personal donation to the Kirk family and Turning Point USA,” the company stated. “Regardless of ABC’s plans for the future of the program, Sinclair intends not to return ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ to our air until we are confident that appropriate steps have been taken to uphold the standards expected of a national broadcast platform.”

Kimmel’s late-night show was pulled off the air entirely last Wednesday after Kimmel’s remarks about the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk sparked outrage and a veiled threat from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Disney decided to suspend the show after Sinclair and Nexstar pulled its airings of Kimmel, and Kimmel reportedly had told executives he would not apologize for his comments.

Disney reversed course on Monday and announced that Kimmel’s show would return in a statement Monday.

“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country. It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday,” a Disney spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

Late night entertainment has evolved into a sad state. I look at some of the Johnny Carson re-runs and consider it as entertainment, uncoupled from any political launch pad away from a personal political trajectory of opinion and rhetoric that manages to consistently consume the greater part of the shows viewing time slot.

I sometimes put on the Roku channel dedicated to Carson.

They have one for the Carol Burnett show too.

Networks are getting left behind and the people running them seem to give zero "forks".

That comes as no surprise. They won't air the full "Face the Nation" on Sundays, so they can run their fascist propaganda show. At least the Sinclair owned station around here is CBS, so we won't miss out on Kimmel.

Kimmel lost about 60 stations. That means loss of big advertising revenue. His contract is up in a few months. If he don't get those affiliates back, Kimmel will be gone for good.

Either way, if they canned him outright they'd still have to pay off his contract. So as long as they have to pay him, might as well keep him on the air. As it stands now, Disney loses about $15mil a year on the show .They have to be looking real hard at the bottom line. If they decide to renew, expect Jimmy the K to take a serious pay cut.

I’m tired of RWers here expecting to be spoon-fed fact. Makes it more believable when you read it for yourself.

I find it hard to believe that anyone doesn't know what trump said on Sunday in that speech. And no, it really isn't necessary to watch the whole thing (I didn't) as it was pretty much the same old same old we hear out of him.

Lots of people sign up with the opposing party in order to "throw a wrench into the works"… hitting up the primaries and voting for the weakest candidate in order to help the opposing side. Your rhetoric matches what one hears from such people.
