Unfortunately, ABC hasn't canceled Jimmy Kimmel Live! But Kimmel is canceling Thursday night's show (well, showing a rerun) so his viewers can tune into the very last installment of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and then never watch CBS again.

“I hope those of you who watch our show will also tune in to CBS for the last time. Don’t ever watch it again.”

People already weren't watching it. That's why it was losing tens of millions of dollars a year.
Are there any good shows on CBS anyway? Certainly not 60 Minutes or CBS Sunday Morning.
Wow. The sense of self importance is nauseating

Why is Kimmel trying to bankrupt CBS? We thought President Donald Trump himself took Colbert off the air.
Would've been great advice after Letterman's last show.

Already there. And I treat @JimmyKimmelLive the same way.

NEWSFLASH @jimmykimmel : We turned off fake news @CBS years ago.

We also never turned on Jimmy Kimmel ✌️
How much money does this loser cost the network each year?

That’s funny I did the same with Kimmel and ABC a decade ago

Was he crying like a little girl again when he said that?

Karma will come for Jimmy Kimmel in the form of his own show’s cancellation. He is a divisive nasty person who has helped ruin the late night genre. He does not host his show in good faith and he is a fundamentally bad person. That will catch up with him.@ABC @CBS @nbc

Uhh we kinda already did, hence the reason viewership and ratings tanked

I'm pretty sure that's why the show was cancelled in the first place. They're sooooo close to understanding...

I cant believe Colbert lost his job before Kimmel. They both suck, and he should step down in solidarity.

If you hadn’t posted it, this nonsense might never have been seen.

It's true. It's amazing how Kimmel and so many others think that CBS is compelled to keep subsidizing Colbert's show when it's losing $40 million a year for the network. No one has a right to a late-night talk show.
