He’s back. The “indefinite” Suspension for Jimmy Kimmel is over as he is expected to bring back his show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Tuesday.
ABC, which airs the show, made the announcement Monday, according to The New York Times.
“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,” the Walt Disney Company, ABC’s parent company, said in a statement.
“It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive,” the statement continued. “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.”
