Jimmy Kimmel Live! is returning to the airwaves after a brief suspension, as announced by ABC on Monday (Sept. 22).
The news comes just five days after the network temporarily shut down the late-night program in light of comments host Jimmy Kimmel made about the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. As parent company Disney worded it in a statement Monday, “We made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country.”
