After three days, Jimmy Kimmel rose up to the occasion, and he understood the assignment.
A week ago, Jimmy Kimmel Live was “preempted indefinitely” due to what is easily assumed to be pressure from an orange, thin-skinned man with a micro-stem.
His suspension was felt across the country as people debated what free speech and the First Amendment are, which some still don’t understand. But that is a whole other debate. And right now, America has a debating problem because people only want to hear their side and refuse to come to a middle ground.
However, yesterday, both sides went to YouTube after 11:35p EDT to hear what Kimmel said on his first night back from suspension. I would say they tuned into ABC, but Nexstar and Sinclair reportedly still need something from the FCC, so they are still not airing the late night talk show.
That is sad because their viewers missed out on a poignant monologue that was heartfelt at times, humorous at others, self-reflecting, honest, and uniting at others.
Plus, they didn’t get to see Robert De Niro do what that FCC wannabe tough guy wishes he could do. Only New Yorkers (and some people from Jersey) can threaten people without people knowing they are being threatened. He is from DC. He only knows how to threaten other politicians, and even they are like, “Girl, please.”
The other night on Late Night, Seth Meyers explained perfectly why donald trump is the butt of so many jokes. It is not because he is an ass, which he is. It is because, well, listen to what Seth (who I say is the best late night host currently on TV) has to say, and it will all make sense. So the only person hurting micro-stem is micro-stem, just like the only person touching his micro-stem is himself, because we know Melania ain’t Toad the Red Mushroom (thank you, Stormy Daniels, for the image) touching with an inch pole.
On Wednesday, ABC made the tough decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel because they were being pressured by right wing media conglomerates Nexstar and Sinclair, who own almost half of the ABC affiliates, when they decided to pull Jimmy Kimmel Live from their air. Nexstar and Sinclair were rumored to be feeling the pressure from the FCC when the head of the agency went on a conservative podcast and threatened any station that airs JKL with fines.
No one expected the outrage that decision would make, so after four days of people protesting, subscribers cancelling Disney+ and Hulu, celebrity boycotts, vocal fan reactions, and a tumble on the stock market, Disney decided to bring back Kimmel.
“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,” said an ABC spokesperson. “It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. 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.“
By doing so, the First Amendment won, and the Trump administration lost.
Now that Kirk’s memorial service has happened, let’s turn the temperature down and get along! We live in the United States of America, not the divided states of America. We live in one nation, let’s remember that! Before it is too late, and it is getting to the point, which scares me, and it should scare you too.
Jimmy Kimmel Live resumes on ABC tomorrow at 11:35p.
Before I start the story, I just had an epiphany. I love to psycho analyze people. And I have finally figured out something new about trump. He is the type of kid who was rightfully bullied because he was a dick. So, after school, he would run home to his look-alike mommy and cry about how much all the kids were mean to him. Then she would call the school, their parents, or both. And then those kids would hate him even more. He didn’t have any real friends. He only had the ones that his parents bought for him.
Even though it is over 70 years later, he still acts like that kid who wants to be liked. And in those 70 years, he still has not figured out that you have to be likable to be liked.
That brings me to present day. He feels that the late night hosts are being mean to him. He can’t run home to mommy (because she is dead), so instead, he goes to the FCC and has them go after the hosts.
And that is why that FCC guy, who also had no friends, was threatening the broadcast channels to fire Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, and Seth Meyers.
And it worked because ABC was forced to pull Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday, when Nexstar and Sinclair wanted something out of trump’s mom, I mean, the FCC.
And since the four shows are sick of this bullshit, they decided to make a mockery of trump that is worse than anything they have ever done before. Because if you come for one of them, you have come for all of them. And they are also smarter than trump because he doesn’t get sarcasm and humor. Shhh! Don’t tell him or his paid friends that. It is our dirty little secret.
And one more thing. What trump and his paid friends who use him have not figured out is that you can get them fired from broadcast, where they have some constraints in the classroom. But the second they are free on the courtyard, they can do whatever they want. And they will.
Please understand, I HATE bullies. I take them down. It is so much fun. So don’t be a trump, be a late night host.
For years, donald trump has said that he has wanted to get Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel fired. And it looks like he has found a way to do that.
However, there was something he did not account for, and that is that Colbert is that The Late Show host still has seven months left on his contract. Therefore, he can say and do whatever he wants because what are they going to do, fire him? They already did that.
So when Colbert heard that Jimmy Kimmel Live is suspended indefinitely, he and his staff knew they had to go after the dick-tator wannabe. And they did.
They changed up the lyrics to Beauty and the Beast’s Be Our Guest to be all about the orange one. And he is not going to like it. Because, as they say, the truth hurts, and this was very truthful.
Just like the original tune, this one is very catchy. So catchy, I cannot stop singing it.
When he was killed last week, I tried to be peaceful and tried to unite us. But that was last week.
Today, I am mad as hell, and I am not going to take this anymore.” I say this while listening to Twisted Sister’s “We’re Not Gonna Take It.”
ABC has announced “Jimmy Kimmel Live! will be preempted indefinitely.”
The decision came after Nexstar, who reportedly leans to the right, dropped the late night talk show from the 32 ABC affiliates it owns. “Nexstar’s owned and partner television stations affiliated with the ABC Television Network will preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live! for the foreseeable future beginning with tonight’s show,” said the company. “Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.”
The things that Kimmel said during in September 15th monologue were not that bad. I don’t know why it got everyone’s panties in a bunch.
Can someone tell me why it is OK for the Religious Right to break the First Commandment, “You shall have no other gods before Me,” and treat him as a Gd? And why is it OK for the Trump administration to ignore the First Amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances?”
This is utter bullshit! As the Hulk said, “Don’t make me angry. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry!” I am angry!
Since the right is OK with boycotting things they don’t like, I say we boycott The CW, which is not hard to do because who still watches it?
