Jimmy Kimmel is back! (UNcancelled)



Jimmy Kimmel is back!
.
Kimmel cancellation. Why? (Archyde)
(Jimmy Kimmel Live) Sept. 23, 2025: Jimmy Kimmel returns to the air and talks about all of the people who have reached out over the last six days including fellow late night talk show hosts, fans of the show, and those who don’t support what he believes but support his right to share those beliefs anyway, and he expresses that it was never his intention to make light of the murder of a young man...

No apology, but heartfelt crying

I'll release Epstein Client List (if they remove me)
How important it is to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this, the Chairman of the FCC Brendan Carr telling an American company that “We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” Trump saying he has no talent and no ratings, being fortunate to work at a company that has allowed us to do the show we want to do for almost 23 years, not agreeing with the decision to have our show pulled off the air last Wednesday, Trump making it very clear he wants to see Jimmy and other late night hosts fired, and solidarity from the right, left and those in the middle. Then Jimmy talks to the new FCC Chairman (Robert De Niro), and gets into Trump’s day addressing the United Nations, the escalator breaking, having trouble with the teleprompter, and the headache he’s creating with his buddy RFK over Tylenol. Jimmy Kimmel is Back! #Kimmel

EXCLUSIVE: What do we at Wisdom Quarterly know about Jimmy Kimmel?
Divorces, dates Sarah, remarries, kids
Fortunate to grow up in Los Angeles, we have known and listened to Kimmel for more than 30 years. How? Long before he became famous, he lived in Las Vegas and wanted to be in radio. So he traveled to Hollywood and got a job as a comedian and sports reporter on the Kevin & Bean Show (K&B on KROQ FM), the morning zoo of the foremost alt rock station in the area. KROQ had a direct line to MTV with its DJs who became VJs and Loveline and determining hit songs.

KROQ's Kevin Ryder made Kimmel famous.
Soon after Jimmy arrived -- doing his many funny characters which he could never do now, Gay James, Mo the Angry Midget, Karl Malone in Blackface, and so on -- he met a nobody named Adam Corolla. Jimmy accepted a challenge to box someone and was taking it lightly. Corolla was an impoverished construction worker/carpenter, driving his rundown truck through the Valley, listening to K&B. He heard about the boxing match and decided to take his very green comedic chops, which he was working on at Groundlings Improv, down to the station to help Jimmy.

THE STRANGEST THING
  • Nearly no one but us is likely to remember the paranormal aspect of Jimmy Kimmel's career success from early KROQ days.

How did psychics know I'd be famous?
Sadly, our memory is imperfect as to the exact details. In those days there was another famous friend of Kimmel and Corolla named Ralph Garman (a voice comic long since forgotten to the oblivion of his own paywall podcast no one cared about and Corolla's former apartment roommate). Whatever might be said about Bean Baxter and Kevin Ryder, they were intensely interested in the paranormal. They played this off with jokes, gags, and James Randi-style skepticism. K&B used all of these as covers to repeatedly invite psychics, hypnotic past life regressionists, mystics, and others onto the show. They made so much fun of these real-life people that one had to wonder why they kept inviting them back. K&B ran a lazy show, preferring others to be funny and do most of the comedic work. They just picked great people to come on and do it.

Future Cmdr. Ralph Garman
Therefore, when it came time to be hypnotized or progressed (future life progression), they put in Jimmy and Ralph and Beer Mug rather than participating directly themselves. This was very shocking because they all clowned around and acted like nonbelievers, doubters, and jesters -- given our very scientific and secular society and city. That let them continue to be funny, whether the channels or visionaries they brought on were crazy or not, such as our favorite guest Bridget Nielsen.

Bridget: I birth human-ET hybrid children (BN)
Bridg-ET (the bridge between ETs and humans as a hybrid mom, bridgetnielsen.com) and an old couple who channeled The Beatles from heaven to bring NEW Beatles' music to the world. The point: It turned out that both Jimmy Kimmel and Ralph Garman, according to their progressions, will be very important in the future history of the human plane.
What they described seeing and who they described being was stunning, making one wonder how it was that these apparent goofs were actually not on radio in one of the world's largest radio markets by accident. Kimmel becomes important when we are a space-traveling species, which has already happened.

Best friend Adam Corolla
Garman is a future ruler who sends many people off to war to die. The KARMA to fill these stations is uncommon. Kimmel was an atheistic-sounding Italian (Roman) Catholic. Did the personal experience under hypnosis make him a believer in rebirth? Or in keeping with his Jewish girlfriend Sarah and other secular Jewish friends in the Valley, did he just say "pshaw" and dismiss it all as parapsychological mumbo jumbo for the radio?

It was kismet and karma combined. They fell in love with each other, and Kimmel got Corolla a job on the show as Mister Birchum, the angry high school woodshop teacher. He was hilarious, so much so that he promoted up and up, until Comedy Central gave the duo a shot to create something. They came up with The Man Show. Corolla became the movie reviewer for K&B for movies he never saw. He was doing comedy in between construction jobs, as many future-famous friends partied in the Valley in a strange amalgamation of Hollywood talent:

Sarah Silverman, Kimmel's g/f
Ms. Sarah Silverman (Kimmel's girlfriend), a cluster of funny folks around HBO's Mr. Show with Bob & David such as Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Jack Black, Brian Posehn, and the guy who went on to become SpongeBob SquarePants (Tom Kenny). Yada, yada, yada (Seinfeld was taping nearby in Studio City in the Valley) and somewhere storyboards were being drawn up for The Simpsons (which was created by the LA genius Matt Groening of Life in Hell comic strip fame).

One day we all got fired, but not Kimmel.
LA is a smoggy kitchen of half-baked ideas, with just a few hills between the dusty Valley and shiny Hollywood. It all comes around because this morning (Sept. 24, 2025), Kevin Ryder (the K in K&B) is back on KROQ FM and the old K&B Show is now Klein . Ally . Show.

The man who made Kimmel calls in this morning
Kevin Klein and Ally Johnson have been following the Kimmel saga, as has Kevin Ryder, who was personally on hand at the historic Hollywood Masonic Lodge on Hollywood Blvd., where Jimmy Kimmel Live! is taped. He cried more than Kimmel did and reported what happened inside as Kimmel received a 7-minute standing ovation as soon as he stepped out in front of the studio audience. He called in to talk about it:


No! Fire him!! Pam Bondi, sue them all!!!
The censorship nightmare ends. Will Kimmel reign it in and stop raking the Orange One over the coals nightly? Will he apologize? Will he pay off [Karen] Kirk during her time of grieving with such hateful eyes as she pays beautiful lip service to evangelical Christian ideals? Probably. Disney-owned ABC is bringing him back, having been in negotiations since this all happened. What will Nexstar and Sinclair, cogs in the Network with the power to pre-empt the show on their stations, have to say about it? What will Trump's counter-reaction be? Satire to be made a felony for making people question authority.
Jimmy Kimmel to RETURN: ABC ends suspension starting Tuesday, Sept. 23, 2025
Brian Steinberg, Variety, Sept. 22, 2025

Take that, Old Poopy Drawers!
Jimmy Kimmel will have more to say on late-night TV. Disney and ABC will bring the comedian back to its schedule starting Tuesday night.

“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country.


It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive,” the company said in a statement. “We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”

Boycott Disney: cancel my Mickey
[Why was he cancelled?]
Now, who's the biznatch, Adult Diaper Man?
Disney’s decision to bench one of its signature [comedic] personalities came after two major station owners, Nexstar Media and Sinclair, said they would pre-empt his program following a Kimmel monologue last Monday during which he offered remarks tied to the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Hollywood wields more power than Mar-a-Lago?
And yet, after Kimmel was taken off the air, Disney faced protest from the creative community. On Monday, 400 celebrities — including people like Martin Short and Tom Hanks, who have created memorable characters for Disney in the recent past — signed a letter from the American Civil Liberties Union decrying the blow the maneuver delivered to free speech in America.


What do corporations care? It's about money.
The decision to bring Kimmel back was approved by Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, and Dana Walden, co-chair of Disney Entertainment, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The executives acted based on what was best for the company, this person said, and not on external factors. Indeed, it remains unclear if all ABC affiliates will air Kimmel’s program.

Spokespersons for Nexstar and Sinclair could not be reached for immediate comment.  More

This has made me more famous than ever.
(TODAY) Sept 18, 2025: ABC announces that “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” has been suspended “indefinitely” after the late-night host made comments on Monday about the shooting of Charlie Kirk. While many conservatives, including Pres. Don Trump, are applauding the move, Democrats and free-speech advocates are condemning it as a form of censorship. NBC’s Liz Kreutz reports for TODAY. #ABC #donaldtrump #FCC

Now as a result of all this censorship hoopla and corporate chaos, Kimmel's ratings are sure to skyrocket for his return Tuesday. Will he be able to hold onto them though?
