Jimmy Kimmel is back on Jimmy Kimmel Live! after ABC suspended the show over his controversial remarks about the assassination of activist Charlie Kirk. The Associated Press reported that ABC pulled the program following concerns from executives and the FCC.

According to People Magazine, the network reversed course just six days later, announcing Kimmel’s return on September 23 after “thoughtful conversations.” As Politico noted, dozens of entertainers defended Kimmel, calling the suspension a threat to free speech.
