Fans of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” will have to make do without new episodes for the time being.

ABC confirmed that it has indefinitely pulled Jimmy Kimmel’s late night talk show following comments he made on a Sept. 15 episode regarding the fatal shooting of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.

The controversial remarks were made during his opening monologue when the “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” host criticized supporters of President Donald Trump following the arrest of Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old charged in Kirk’s murder.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other then one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” he said on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

Trump, a frequent critic of the talk show host, celebrated the suspension in a post on Truth Social.
