Jimmy Kimmel has a plan to get Stephen Colbert back on late-night TV



Late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel said there are a lot of people who are interested in what he and his colleagues have to say.

Kimmel boasted off the back of his best month of ratings ever, directly after his pal Stephen Colbert left the CBS airwaves.

'It's silly how people go wild about a podcast that's No. 5, and the numbers still don't even compare to a television show.'

Couch surfing

Colbert took over "The Late Show" in 2015 from host David Letterman, eventually nose-diving into a $40 million annual loss for his network before leaving in May.

When asked if Colbert's viewership had made its way over to his show, Kimmel told Variety, "I've always thought of our show as an orphanage."

It was later in the same interview that Kimmel explained he had a plan to get Colbert back behind the desk on his own network, ABC/Disney, and host for at least some period of time on his show.

For his summer break, which just started, Kimmel revealed he had asked Colbert if he would do him the honor of guest hosting "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

However, Colbert reportedly declined on the grounds that it was too soon.

"Of course, I asked him, and I think it feels premature," Kimmel told the outlet. "But I told him, 'Anytime you want to host, it doesn't matter if it's the summer, I'll gladly step aside.'"

Host with the most

The allegation that Colbert fans changed the dial over to ABC in June comes after Kimmel averaged 3.15 million viewers, his best monthly audience ever in the show's 23 years.

Kimmel jabbed at CBS, thanking them "for their wisdom," while adding, "We were doing pretty well before that, but that really helped."

The viewership marks a 17% increase from May with a doubling of viewers in the 18-49 market.

The 58-year-old Kimmel took the chance to dump on the podcast market during the recent interview, saying his numbers blow them away.

"It's silly how people go wild about a podcast that's No. 5, and the numbers still don't even compare to a television show," Kimmel bragged.

"There's still a lot of people watching late-night television, and I include the other shows in that," he said. "And there are still a lot of people looking at our shows on YouTube the next day, and there's a lot of people who are interested in what we have to say. They may ... not necessarily be watching it on their TV, but it seems like a little bit of people are coming back to their old friend television."

Summer slots

Kimmel's summer break is set to feature a revolving door of some of Hollywood's most memorable cogs like Ike Barinholtz, Anthony Anderson, and Rosie O'Donnell.

Other hosts include actor Colman Domingo and musician Jelly Roll.

'Bad taste': Ex-Disney CEO Bob Iger defends decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel for Charlie Kirk remarks



Don't blame Trump for Jimmy Kimmel's suspension last year, says former Disney CEO Bob Iger — it was purely an in-house decision.

"We thought it was in bad taste," Iger told the Financial Times, referring to the late-night host's on-air remarks about Charlie Kirk shortly after his death.

'An ill-timed and probably inappropriate comment.'

Murderous monologue

Five days after Kirk was assassinated during a college tour stop in Utah on September 10, 2025, Kimmel addressed the killing in his opening monologue, declaring that the "MAGA gang [is] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

Two days later, on September 17, Disney suspended production of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Production was resumed on September 23.

Iger, who was CEO of Disney from 2022 to 2026, denied speculation that complaints from the Trump administration were the real reason ABC and parent company Disney pulled the show.

Iger also revealed that Kimmel was asked to apologize for his remarks, saying "We just wanted him to acknowledge that it was an ill-timed and probably inappropriate comment."

Persecution complex

Speculation that the executive branch was behind Kimmel's suspension stemmed chiefly from an appearance FCC Chairman Brendan Carr made on a podcast, where he said, "We can do this the easy way or the hard way," regarding the talk-show host.

"These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead," Carr remarked, per Variety.

Kimmel, too, claimed he was the victim of a government plot to silence him; however the alleged plot would only last five days. Upon returning to the network, Kimmel's show aired a compilation of news stories surrounding his suspension, where multiple channel were shown calling his return to ABC a "huge" and "pivotal" moment in history.

Hero to zero

As Blaze News reported at the time, Kimmel received multiple standing ovations from his audience, becoming visibly emotional as he recalled messages of love he had received for being the alleged target of a government censorship plot.

Kimmel's remarks were a reversal of his previous comments, as he told his viewers that he was not actually trying to pin any certain ideology on Kirk's assassin.

"I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind," Kimmel said. "But I do want to make something clear because it's important to me as a human. And that is you understand that it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man. I don't think there's anything funny about it."

In April, Kimmel joked about first lady Melania Trump having "a glow like an expectant widow."

Two days later, another assassination attempt was made on President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, considered the third attempt on the president's life.

Jimmy Kimmel picks host to replace him for a bit — and she's a vitriolic Trump-hater



Jimmy Kimmel announced that he will be replaced this summer with a rotating roster of hosts that includes one histrionic hater of President Donald Trump.

Kimmel said Rosie O'Donnell will be one of the hosts to take over the show as he takes a traditional two-month break for the summer.

'It's been heartbreaking to see what's happening politically and hard for me personally as well.'

"We have assembled a potent group of hosts to fill in for me, beginning with Tiffany Haddish, Colman Domingo, Ike Barinholtz, Anthony Anderson, Jelly Roll," said Kimmel on Thursday.

"And as a special treat for our commander in chief, I asked one of his all-time favorites, Rosie O’Donnell, to be here to keep the hits coming," he added.

O'Donnell and Trump have attacked each other verbally since before he became president, and his insults against her have been used by opponents to accuse him of misogyny.

One of his most famous jabs came during the first debate for the presidential Republican primary in 2015, when he interrupted moderator Megyn Kelly.

"You've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals," said Kelly.

"Only Rosie O'Donnell!" said Trump to loud applause and laughter.

"For the record, it was well beyond Rosie O’Donnell," Kelly responded when the laughter subsided.

In March, O'Donnell said she was leaving America for Ireland with her youngest child, Clay, and would return when all citizens have equal rights. She has said that the 12-year-old identifies as nonbinary.

"I was never someone who thought I would move to another country. That's what I decided would be the best for myself and my 12-year-old child. And here we are," she said.

"It's been heartbreaking to see what's happening politically and hard for me personally as well. The personal is political," she added. "When it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, that's when we will consider coming back."

Joy-less 'View' doing just fine; will Behar-besting Swisher go from temp to perm?



Better 30-plus years late than never?

Ted Danson committed one of the most outrageous blackface routines ever in 1993. The “Cheers” star was dating Whoopi Goldberg at the time, and the two appeared at the New York Friars Club, a comedians’ hangout.

The tour’s stage visuals included the group’s crow logo dressed as Uncle Sam. The crowd spontaneously began chanting, ‘USA, USA!’

His mission? Roast Goldberg, then a legitimate star and recent Oscar winner for “Ghost.” Except Danson wasn’t, and still isn’t, a stand-up comic. So he went for “performance artist,” dressing in full blackface to riff on interracial couples and related themes.

Regrets, Danson has a few, even though Goldberg helped write his jokes.

“Your intentions do not matter. The impact you have on people is what matters,” he told super woke comic W. Kamau Bell on the latter’s podcast.

The moment never rose to the level of career cancellation. Few stars have worked more than Danson over the decades. He keeps finding long-running TV shows like “The Good Place,” “Becker,” and, most recently, “A Man on the Inside.”

Now, if we can only get Jimmy “Karl Malone” Kimmel canceled ...

No Joy in ‘View’-ville

Did Joy Behar just get Wally Pipped?

Pipp famously played first base for the New York Yankees in the 1920s, but he took a day off to battle a headache issue. His replacement? Lou Gehrig, the “Iron Man” who went on to play 2,130 straight games for the team.

Joy Behar voluntarily stepped aside from “The View” this week to work on her play, “My First Ex-Husband,” set to bow on the West End.

Behar’s blend of ugly banter, misinformation, and ignorance seems impossible to replace, even temporarily.

Enter Kara Swisher, a far-left journalist known for covering the tech beat. And, boy, did she bring it during her “View” debut. She compared Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to a talk show host, suggesting he lacked combat experience.

That ignored Hegseth’s decorated military career, including two Bronze Star Medals, two Army Commendation Medals, and the Joint Commendation Medal.

Later, Swisher said Scott Pelley’s dismissal from “60 Minutes” was an attack on the media, not the fallout from publicly blasting his bosses. Finally, she ran to senatorial hopeful Graham Platner’s defense after the Maine resident’s wife had to bail him out of a gross sexting scandal.

Watch your back, Joy. Swisher is swinging a hot bat in the on-deck circle ...

Nothing to Crowe about

You’d think peaking in the 1990s would bring a bit of humility to a band.

Not for the Black Crowes, who broke out in a big way with songs like “She Talks to Angels” and “Jealous Again.” The band is back on the road, but a recent Florida tour stop became a prime example of rake stepping.

The tour’s stage visuals included the group’s crow logo dressed as Uncle Sam. The crowd spontaneously began chanting, “USA, USA!”

Rather than lean into the sentiment or simply smile over fans having a blast, lead singer Chris Robinson lectured them, according to TMZ. From the stage he snarked, “Thanks for the geography lesson. ... I don’t know what you have to be so proud of right now.”

That landed poorly with the crowd, so he doubled down amid the boos and walkouts.

“For those of you f**king booing us, some of us are not afraid. And we most assuredly are not f**king ignorant.”

Here’s guessing his band won’t be playing that Freedom 250 concert, either ...

Quentin unchained

This former video store clerk has had enough of Hollywood dreck, thank you. Except he’s so stuck on his 10th and “final” film that he’s not personally helping matters.

Quentin Tarantino penned a blistering essay this week on the current state of the Hollywood movie. Spoiler alert — it stinks, to paraphrase Jon Lovitz’s “Critic” character.

Since the pandemic, for me anyway, it seems almost impossible for a new movie to come out that I don’t pick to death. Flaws, implausibilities, audience pandering, miscast performers, or just plain stupid s**t usually torpedoes every new movie coming out of the flavorless sausage factory that used to call itself Hollywood.

Yikes.

Tarantino has pledged to stop making movies after he completes his 10th film. He seems stuck on number nine, following the roaring success of 2019’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.”

His planned final film, “The Movie Critic,” got scrapped in 2024. He’s gotten plenty of criticism for overusing the “N-word” on-screen and featuring too many feet close-ups over the years. Maybe penning a screenplay without his signature tics is proving harder than he thought.

BROS BEFORE POSE: Kimmel drops anti-MAGA act to honor old friend Adam Carolla



You’re not supposed to say it out loud, Tilda.

Actress Tilda Swinton admitted this week what many likely suspected all along. Awards galas sometimes hand out trophies for films that align with their political views first and foremost.

Carolla has never played the Hollywood game, building his own podcasting empire 'pirate ship' to avoid having to bow to industry groupthink.

Quality? Yeah, that matters, but not as much as you think.

Take “Fahrenheit 9/11,” Michael Moore’s cartoonish 2004 film excoriating President George W. Bush. The documentary won the Palm d’Or at that year’s Cannes Film Festival.

Now, Swinton is admitting that the film’s hard-left politics helped seal its victory:

I was a very vocal advocate of that film getting the Palme d’Or. For a very specific reason, which was a political reason. Not necessarily party political, but my argument was, at that time, Michael Moore was making extremely important statements that were not admissible in any other medium.

Yes, the mainstream media made sure that Moore’s opinions couldn’t be heard in any venue. Now, will Oscar voters admit the same about the award-winning “An Inconvenient Truth"? Given how few predictions Al Gore got right in the film, the chances are getting better by the day ...

Stuporgirl

The forecast for the next DC Comics blockbuster is, well, not so super.

“Supergirl,” set to fly into theaters June 26, lacks the cultural cache of the character’s cousin, the Man of Steel — to say the least.

Still, the upcoming film could be a nice fit for audiences eager for popcorn entertainment. Except the film’s star, Milly Alcock, keeps getting in the way.

The actress started trouble a few weeks back by declaring herself the victim of the “male gaze” as part of the “Game of Thrones” spinoff “House of the Dragon.” Pop culture observers rolled their eyes, hard, over that position.

If you thought men with functioning eyeballs were evil, wait until you meet Alcock's latest formidable foes — Christian fathers.

Great Scott!

Here’s what she told Variety about her online critics.

“And it’s from a lot of people whose profiles have no photo, who are burner accounts ... or someone’s name and then ‘Dad of four, Christian,’ which is hilarious to me.”

You never go the full Rachel Zegler — the “Snow White” actress whose chronically divisive press comments helped sink that live-action update.

Can you guess what happened next? Yes, “Supergirl” is tracking poorly, with box office estimates somewhere between previous super duds “The Marvels” and “Black Adam.”

Was it something she said? Well, yes ...

Barker's blank check

Here’s $10 million. Now, what did you have in mind?

Young director Curry Barker is Hollywood’s new “it” talent. He made a few YouTube videos, including the creepy “Milk & Serial” horror film, which opened the industry’s eyes.

Now that his big-screen debut, “Obsession,” is raking in millions from a microscopic budget, everyone wants to be in the Curry Barker business.

Badly.

He’s already been given the keys to the “Texas Chainsaw Massacre" franchise. Here you go, kid. Make it interesting again.

Now, one studio has offered Barker $10 million for his next film, according to the Hollywood Reporter — any film, apparently, since Barker hasn’t had time to even pitch a concept to the studio in question.

Every teen with a YouTube account just stood up straight in his gaming chair, dreaming of a Barker-like payday ...

Kimmel kayfabe?

Adam Carolla got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame this week, an unexpected honor in more ways than one. Carolla has never played the Hollywood game, building his own podcasting empire “pirate ship" to avoid having to bow to industry groupthink.

And his old “The Man Show” buddy, Jimmy Kimmel, showed up to mark the occasion.

The two don’t see eye-to-eye politically speaking, and that’s an understatement. Carolla leans to the right but isn’t a political creature by nature. He’s driven by common sense, mostly. Kimmel is to the left of Bernie Sanders, and he spends every waking hour obsessing about a certain world leader.

Kimmel remains close with Carolla, a tribute to their friendship and an ability to see past political differences. He said as much during the ceremony honoring the former "Loveline" co-host.

So why does Kimmel and his wife claim they’ve ended ties with friends and family members for disagreeing with their political views? Stephen L. Miller, AKA @redsteeze on X, suggested Kimmel’s anti-MAGA mien feels more like a pose given his admiration for Carolla.

Either way, the Hollywood Walk of Fame got a little brighter this week.

Jimmy Kimmel's sister-in-law slammed with backlash for reportedly bullying local business — over Spencer Pratt cookies



Critics of Jimmy Kimmel are wondering if his entire family are deranged about politics after his sister-in-law reportedly bullied a local grocery store over pro-Republican cookies.

According to a report from a respected Los Angeles business, Carly Kimmel complained at the 78-year-old Vincente Foods grocery store in Brentwood after seeing that the store was selling cookies with Spencer Pratt's campaign logo.

'What the hell is wrong with this family??? Bunch of psychos.'

Pratt is running for mayor of Los Angeles after his family home was burned down during the devastating Pacific Palisades fires.

On Thursday, Kitson boutique said a reliable source at the store's bakery confirmed the claim about Kimmel's sister-in-law, who is married to the anti-Trump late-night show host's brother.

"Attacking a small business seems to run in the family," read the post. "It’s worth noting that the last two cases involving bakeries and freedom of speech ended with the bakeries winning in the Supreme Court. Go on Carly’s Instagram and tell her how you feel."

Many online followed the advice and went to her account to criticize her alleged reaction.

The post included photos of the cookies with Pratt's famous hummingbird logo.

Critics crushed the Kimmel relative over the cookie report.

"Imagine crashing out over cookies," read a comment documented at the Post.

"What is wrong with the Kimmels??" said another.

"What the hell is wrong with this family??? Bunch of psychos," responded a user on the X platform.

"And now they will be even busier! F**king losers need to stop f**king with people’s livelihood," said another user.

Carly Kimmel has since made her account private. The account, ironically, is named "the unlikeables."

A Blaze News request for comment to the bakery was not immediately answered.

The Post also reported that neither the grocery store nor Carly Kimmel responded to requests for comment.

Recent polls show a surge of support for Pratt, who garnered the largest increase of support of all candidates since a similar March poll. However, incumbent Mayor Karen Bass (D) is still ahead of the former reality TV star.

Pratt uses the hummingbird for his campaign logo because he had become famous for posting videos of the birds feeding from his hand in the back yard of his house, before it burned down.

Stephen Colbert Wasn’t Funny. Even Worse, He Wasn’t Interesting

Stephen Colbert’s character on Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report was funny and interesting. The real-life Stephen Colbert, or whatever iteration of Colbert it is on CBS’s The Late Show, is neither. And more than anything, that’s why his show is now canceled. The very corny narrative that the dying news media like to tell is […]

What's REALLY going on between Trump's FCC and ABC's 'The View'? Glenn Beck answers.



After platforming James Talarico, "The View" is facing an investigation by the FCC for potentially breaking the “equal time” political rule that requires non-news shows to give equal time to opposing political views.

While Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck isn’t a fan of "The View," he’s not sure that Trump’s FCC’s investigation will prove "The View" broke any rules.

“If you are a news show, you don’t have to have both sides on, because it's news. It’s breaking every day. It's changing every day. We have a hard enough time booking guests for a subject. Imagine having to book a guest that has the opposite view of everything you just are covering,” Glenn explains on “The Glenn Beck Program.”

“So that’s the rule. Now, ABC claims that 'The View' is a news show,” he says.


“I don’t watch 'The View.' I never have watched 'The View.' I have only watched the clips of 'The View,' because, for the love of everything that is good and sacred, little baby Jesus cannot save my soul from darkness if I watch that thing every day,” he continues.

“So I don’t know for sure, but from the clips that I have seen over the years, I would say that’s a news show,” he adds.

Glenn notes that he’s not “supporting ABC,” but he is “supporting the truth” as he understands it.

“If what they talk about most of the time is the news of the day, I would consider that a news show,” he says, pointing out that it’s his “understanding that Jimmy Kimmel is also considered a news program.”

“That’s not a news program. I did one search. How many politicians has Jimmy Kimmel had on his show in the last 60 days? And the answer was one. What is the balance of his show? The balance of his guests are Hollywood,” he continues. “It’s an entertainment show, not a news show. That one clearly doesn’t qualify.”

Jake Tapper’s aggressive defense of Jimmy Kimmel reveals the left’s insane double standards



Under the guise of “comedy,” late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel has long made claims about President Trump and his supporters that don’t hold water, as well as refused to apologize for jokes like his recent “widow” line aimed at Melania Trump.

But when Aaron Rodgers made a similar joke about Kimmel a couple of years ago, the comedian went on a long rant condemning the former NFL quarterback for his comments.

“There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, that are really hoping that [list] doesn’t come out,” Rodgers said on “The Pat McAfee Show.”

“He decided to insinuate that I am a pedophile,” Kimmel responded in a January 2024 monologue. “This is how these nuts do it now. You don’t like Trump, you’re a pedophile. It’s their go-to move. And it shows you how much they actually care about pedophilia.”


“If you are a member of a group that thinks it’s okay to randomly call someone a child molester because you don’t like what that person has to say, maybe you should rethink being a part of that group,” he continued.

“The same doesn’t apply to calling people Nazis,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray interjects.

Kimmel went on to claim that when he does “get something wrong,” he apologizes for it.

“Which is what Aaron Rodgers should do, which is what a decent person would do, but I bet he won’t,” he added.

CNN’s Jake Tapper then went on defense for Kimmel as well, calling Rodgers “wildly irresponsible.”

“Tapper then injected himself into this whole controversy at the time between Kimmel and Rodgers,” executive producer Keith Malinak chimes in.

“New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is facing intense and frankly well-deserved criticism over comments he made on ESPN’s ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ in which Rodgers made false allegations about accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and a popular late-night comedian,” Tapper said on CNN.

“False, defamatory, wildly irresponsible, and not funny,” he continued in defense of Kimmel. “If Rodgers was trying to be funny. This is child sex trafficking.”

“Frankly, just the latest example of Aaron Rodgers using his platform to spread misleading and false information. So wildly irresponsible,” he added.

“Methinks you doth protest too much,” Malinak comments, shocked.

“I mean, it was a joke,” Gray adds.

ABC and the New York Times normalize leftist calls for violence



While Jimmy Kimmel’s widow joke wasn’t calling for violence, BlazeTV host Ron Simmons explains that calling for violence isn’t the problem — it’s the normalization of political violence that is.

“I don’t think Jimmy is telling somebody to go out there and kill somebody, I do think that he is making light of what has been, as we already know, from the two previous assassination attempts, attempts on President Trump’s life, and the fact that we should be happy if he’s dead,” Simmons says on “Relatable.”

And the first lady is on the same page as Simmons.

“Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy — his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America,” Melania wrote in a post on X.


The first lady went on to call for “ABC to take a stand” in response to Kimmel’s joke, while the president called for his firing in a post on Truth Social.

“He ought to be fired immediately,” Simmons agreed.

But Kimmel isn’t the only celebrity normalizing violent political rhetoric.

“There are other people out here that are inciting things that we need to pay attention to,” Simmons explains, before calling out Hasan Piker.

“The New York Times basically platformed him, allowed him to participate in some of their communications. And this guy, he’s even worse than Jimmy Kimmel,” he says, pointing out that in an interview with the NYT, he suggested that the killing of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson was justified.

“Engles wrote about the concept of social murder. And Brian Thompson as the United Healthcare CEO was engaging in a tremendous amount of social murder, the systematized forms of violence, the structural violence of poverty, the for-profit paywalled system of health care in this country,” Piker said in the interview.

“And the consequences of that are tremendous amounts of pain, tremendous amounts of violence, tremendous amounts of death,” he added.

However, Simmons notes that Piker has said much worse on his own Twitch stream.

“If you cared about Medicare fraud or Medicaid fraud, you would kill Rick Scott,” Piker said.

In another clip, Piker calls for property owners to be killed “in the street.”

“Yeah kill them. ... Let the streets soak in their f**king red, capitalist blood,” he said.

“The New York Times, if they’re a legitimate journalistic output, they shouldn’t be platforming a guy like this,” Simmons comments.

“I mean, that’s just way, way, way over the line,” he adds.
