Jimmy Kimmel's late-night talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, will return after a brief suspension imposed by Disney due to Kimmel's comments about the death of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. Disney stated that Kimmel's remarks were deemed ill-timed and insensitive, leading to threats from the FCC regarding ABC's broadcast license. The suspension ignited a nationwide debate on free speech, with many celebrities and advocates criticizing the decision as censorship. Kimmel's return comes amid ongoing discussions with major TV affiliates like Sinclair and Nexstar, which had opted not to air the show during the suspension. Kimmel has not publicly commented on the situation, but his first guest upon return will be actor Glen Powell. The incident highlights the tensions between media, politics, and free expression in the current climate.
