Washington: Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show, ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’, has been reinstated, announced ABC on Monday. The show was taken off the air after criticism over his comments regarding the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The ABC officials stated that they had engaged in thoughtful conversations with Jimmy over the past days, culminating in the decision to return the show on Tuesday.

Notably, ABC had suspended Kimmel indefinitely following remarks he made about Kirk, who was killed on September 10, during a monologue. Kimmel had said that many in MAGA land are working very hard to capitalise on the murder of Charlie Kirk and that "the MAGA gang" was “desperately trying to characterise this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them”.
