Jimmy Kimmel Returns: How Nexstar & Sinclair Viewers Can Still Watch

Here's how you can watch Jimmy Kimmel tonight - even if you're a Sinclair or Nexstar viewer. Plus, the stations that were impacted and more.


Great news! A week after late-night host Jimmy Kimmel was pulled by Disney-owned ABC, Kimmel's late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! is returning tonight! Unfortunately, not everyone in the U.S. will be able to see what the late-night host has to say. That's because Nexstar and Sinclair—two media companies that own many ABC affiliate stations around the country—have decided to keep Kimmel off their screens, opting for local news programming instead. Since we're huge fans of Television over here at Bleeding Cool, we wanted to make sure everyone knew how to catch Kimmel's comments tonight – especially those impacted by Nexstar and Sinclair's decision.
