Jimmy Kimmel’s return to late-night television after a brief suspension drew 6.26 million total viewers, according to preliminary Nielsen ratings, making it the show’s highest-performing regularly scheduled episode in over a decade.
The robust ratings are remarkable partly because a typical episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” attracts roughly 1.6 million viewers.
Disney, which owns ABC, highlighted that the latest episode did not air in 23% of American households. That’s because Nexstar and Sinclair, two major owners of ABC broadcast affiliates, continue to refuse to run the show following Kimmel’s remarks about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

This is even crazier.
Also, I hate how all the articles say his comments were about the Charlie Kirk assassination when they were actually about Trump.
Sounds like it’s all an excuse to cause uproar to forget about the Trumpstein files.
If Magats could read they’d be sooo upset we didn’t forget.
This is an example of how fighting fascist make you stronger.
Remember, don’t comply in advance.
Thanks trump, lol!

Perhaps they could use this as proof that they don’t need any of those Nexstar or Sinclair stations and remove their affiliate status.
If I were Iger and an actual patriot instead of being a billionaire scumbag, I’d start by removing all permission for NexStar & Sinclair to use any of Disney’s content.
I didn’t like Jimmy Kimmel but now I do lol
Refuse to air? We will just watch it online. Local TV stations are dead anyway
Jimmy deserves it for sure.
ABC doesn’t.
That’s an I Love Lucy number. That’s amazing. Y’all that might not know the history of television’s ratings don’t know what a compliment that is by the way.
I don’t normally watch Kimmel but I did watch that last episode to contribute to the Streisand effect
No matter how much attention they get out of this, the content sucks. No one watched it anyways and network tv is dying for a good reason.
LOL, talk about confidently incorrect.
