“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” will return to air on ABC on Tuesday night, the network announced in a statement.
The suspension of Kimmel caused many reactions. Disney bringing back Kimmel so fast is not a surprise. However, one would argue that the damage is already done, as many consumers have already canceled their Disney, Hulu, and ESPN package subscriptions.
The Kimmel show still has a large number of supporters, particularly among left-wing media and Hollywood stars.
Over 400 celebrities, including Jennifer Aniston, Selena Gomez, Jason Bateman, Tom Hanks, Jamie Lee Curtis, and others, have signed a letter condemning the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ show.
It’s going to be an awkward return, and the political jokes are not going to stop. We are in for a long, petty exchange, especially on social media, between left- and right-wing people. It’s only the beginning.
Will Kimmel tone it down a notch, because his bosses want him to, or will he be more tenacious than ever?
