"Fans were particularly concerned since Kimmel's show was pulled from the air in September following the host's comments about conservative activist Charlie Kirk's alleged killer Tyler Robinson. 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, Kimmel said. Kimmel was reprimanded by Federal Communications Commission head Brendan Carr, prompting ABC's owner Disney to announce the show's suspension. Kimmel returned to air on September 23."
"Although neither ABC nor Kimmel have given a reason for the cancellation, The Daily Mail reported that it was due to a personal matter involving the host. A member of the Kimmel Audience Team posted to reddit, Tonight's episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live has been postponed. Apologies for any inconvenience. Will will [sic] contact you to reschedule for a future taping. ABC aired a repeat of the show's October 28 episode in its place."
