Jimmy Kimmel goes nuclear over ABC cancelling him
Share and Follow

Jimmy Kimmel is ‘absolutely f***ing livid’ at ABC’s decision to pull his late-night talk show over his divisive comments regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

On Wednesday, it was announced that Jimmy Kimmel Live! will be removed from the network ‘for the foreseeable future,’ after the TV host, 57, posted a controversial statement about Kirk’s murder suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, suggesting that he was a conservative.

‘Jimmy is p****d over the decision to suspend him and the show and he isn’t going to take this lightly, as he is actively looking for ways to get out of his contract,’ a source told Daily Mail.

‘This is the last straw and Jimmy is now looking to forever break his relationship with ABC forever,’ the insider added.

Another source close to the show said they have ‘never seen Kimmel this angry’ adding ‘It’s bad.’ 

Kimmel’s fellow host Stephen Colbert, whose Late Show was cancelled in July and is set to end in May 2026, is reportedly looking to have him as a guest, as they are both ‘in the same predicament with being against the Trump administration.’

‘They both don’t want Trump to win in any way or fashion at all, and this has lit an extreme fire under Jimmy’s a** to continue to tell it like it is and be real to himself.’ 

‘Stephen Colbert is already looking to get Jimmy on his show as a guest in the next couple days or within the week.’

‘Now they both are in the same predicament with being against the Trump administration, and they are now looking to do something together to fight for what they believe in.’

A producer on the show told the Daily Mail: ‘Well now I don’t have anything to do, we’re shut down indefinitely.’

‘We’re all here and were basically wandering around like aimless cows. Jimmy is going to meet with the network now, and hopefully figure this out, but he is livid.’

‘Absolutely f***ing livid. This is clearly the government overreaching. There’s no such thing as free speech in America, if the government can lean on companies to stop any content they don’t like.’ 

‘And shame on the network for caving into the pressure. He didn’t even say anything that bad – but even if he did, that’s freedom of speech.’

‘Jimmy said he’s going to fight this, not even because he cares so much for the show, although he does, but because he cares about the precedent. He can’t make a comment about Charlie Kirk?’

‘Look over at all the sh** that they’re saying on Fox. Look at what they say on South Park.’

‘This is persecution, and Jimmy isn’t going to stand for it. And he has a lot of friends who are going to cause problems if suddenly he doesn’t have a show.’

‘He’ll get every friend he has to stop doing ABC shows. You want to book someone on the view? Good f***ing luck. How f***ing dare they?’

‘As p***ed off as I am, you can only imagine how Jimmy is. He’s beside himself. I’ve never seen him this angry, ever. It’s bad.’

Despite Kimmel’s statement, investigators say alleged shooter Robinson held far-left ideologies and was dating his transgender roommate.

The TV personality’s unproven suggestion that Robinson was a proponent of the MAGA movement caught instant flak from Federal Communications Commission boss Brendan Carr.

On Wednesday, Carr told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson he was considering an investigation into Kimmel and his network ABC over the jarring remarks.

‘When you look at the conduct that has taken place by Jimmy Kimmel, it appears to be some of the sickest conduct possible,’ Carr told Johnson.

‘As you’ve indicated, there are avenues here for the FCC, so there… are some ways in which I need to be a little bit careful because we could be called ultimately to be a judge on some of these claims that come up.’

Kimmel’s comments about Robinson came during his Monday night monologue.

‘We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it,’ the host said.
