Kimmel's back!

[CrusaderFrank]

Jimmy Kimmel's show is returning to ABC on Tuesday, but not all stations will air it

The network pulled the show after the Federal Communications Commission chair threatened regulatory action after the host's comments about Charlie Kirk's death.

Money overrules political expediency! ABC found that out the hard way!

^ never watched a single Kimmel episode

 

[Moonglow]

Leftists and Democrats just love to subsidize failure. Trump likes winning.

Trump likes spending our money.

 

[Doc7505]

I do not watch the show, but I defend their right to produce the show.

~~~~~~
They can produce the show all they want. If there's no audience watching it, advertisers won't pay for it.... TC shows live and die on audience viewer participation and advertisers buying intermission time.. ..

 

[Doc7505]

He’s not toasting anybody. I am sure Disney gave him conditions.

~~~~~~>
We'll see, I'm sure TV Guide, TMZ, and The Wrap will have blurbs on it when the next issues comes out....

 

[toobfreak]

Censorship is ugly.

SAYS THE GUY WHO:

1. Cheered Trump's banishment from all of social media and most news unable to defend himself or get his story out at all.
2. Celebrated 1600 people locked away on no charges, denied bail, a hearing and even visitation.
3. Clapped when anyone not wanting or not able to medically take the Covid vax were fired from jobs, thrown out of the military, de-banked, and refused all social contact, shopping, eating, dining, everything.
4. Was delirious when the pillow guy was hemmed in at a Hardees drive through by the FBI, his phone taken for years.
5. Was happy when several people around Trump were arrested and jailed for refusing to violate their constitutional rights.
6. Happily jeered when Trump was denied testimony, using expert witnesses and other court evidence, then not even told what he was being charged with.
7. Stayed silent all while Biden's WH called and yelled at and threatened Facebook, news corps, and various media for releasing factual reports less than flattering about Joe Biden during his run up for reelection.

Precisely why Sinclair must be broken up. We can let companies have affiliate monopolies like this.
Surely someone at that company is thinking about this. They are making the case against themselves.

Not a fan of unions, huh?

His show loses money, it's shedding people except for hardcore liberals and it took all his liberal buddies in hollywood to come to his aid

he will be on a shorter leash, his writing team is going to need to run the skits through to make sure he's not canned again

 

[Rambunctious]

How pathetic this unfunny dude can't make a living somewhere else doing something else... he is a loser and I bet he is gone before three years anyway for low ratings...
A no talent who gets beat by Married with Children reruns...

But I thought his ratings were the reason he got yanked

Guess not

Another MAGA lie

 

[0311]

And why do you disagree? The government didn't force them not to carry the show this time. They made this decision on their own.

Because the FCC Chairman threatened to pull ABC's Broadcast License. That was wrong.

Transparent lies.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Because the FCC Chairman threatened to pull ABC's Broadcast License. That was wrong.

But now Sinclair is choosing to continue the preemption of their own accord. That's not censorship, that's a business decision.

 

[Delldude]

It's like this. Kimmel's back until the end of his contract. It's easier to let him run out the contract than fight it out in court, just like Colbert.
Kimmel will flip off the people around him much like Colbert did at first.....big win for Jimmy.....LoL.

Then there's the issue with affiliates not carrying his show. Then advertising...... it's a can of worms for all involved.

Why not break ABC up?

 

[struth]

I cited the article, and quoted the pertinent matter regarding late night tv.

Why are you having difficulty with it?

No you didnr cause you made up our own definition of late night and ignored their findings because it didn’t suit you

 

[CowboyTed]

Didn’t watch it before so whatever it was reported his ratings are even lower than those of the cancelled Colbert if ABC is good with that cool not costing me anything.

Look at the you tube views... TV ratings are more for older and Hannity has decent ratings because...

But go online line to non-linear programming at there are massive differences..

 

[schmidlap]

You're being very silly. The definition of "late night tv" is not mine.

In broadcast programming, dayparting is the practice of dividing the broadcast day into several parts
Late-night television is one of the dayparts in television broadcast programming. It follows prime time and precedes the overnight television show graveyard slot. The slot generally runs from about 11:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., with variations according to the time zone and broadcaster.

Whatever helps you sleep at night I didn't give a flip about Kimmel before this flap I don't today, and I won't five years from now.
