Jimmy Kimmel returned to the airwaves on September 23, 2025, after a week-long suspension from ABC following controversial comments he made about the death of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. Opening the episode with a montage of media coverage, Kimmel addressed the suspension, stating, "I’m happy to be here tonight with you," and joked about the past 48 hours, saying, "I’ve heard from a lot of people over the last six days. I’ve heard from all the people in the world over the last six days."
During his monologue, Kimmel became visibly emotional, stating, "It was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man." He explained that he had reached out to Kirk's family on social media, expressing love and compassion. Kimmel clarified that he did not intend to imply that Kirk's shooter had ties to MAGA supporters, emphasizing that the individual was "obviously a deeply disturbed person."
The suspension had sparked nationwide controversy and debate, leading to Disney, which owns ABC, to reverse its decision and allow Kimmel's return. While fans praised his return as a victory for free speech, President Donald Trump criticized ABC's decision, stating on Truth Social, "I can’t believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back." Trump accused Kimmel of being "yet another arm of the DNC" and suggested that ABC had been pressured into reinstating the show.
Kimmel's return to 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' marked a significant moment in late-night television, highlighting the intersection of media, politics, and public discourse.
