Huzzah-Hooray! With all the whoo-hoo’s around, Jimmy Kimmel shall remain over at legacy network company ABC!
The late-night host has signed a one-year extension with the network that will take Jimmy Kimmel Live! through the end of the 2026–27 TV season. Kimmel’s current deal was set to end in May 2026.
The extension comes on the heels of a tumultuous few months for Kimmel that saw him briefly suspended in September for comments about the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, a record audience for his return, and ongoing sparring with you-know-who in the White House.
Kimmel’s show, now in its 24th season, remains ABC’s longest-running late-night program. The extension ensures continuity as the network navigates a shifting late-night landscape, with Fallon at NBC and Colbert at CBS holding their own.
Bravo-bravissimo Kimmel. Now catch the latest interview episode with super-duper living legend guest David Letterman!
