Celebrity Family Feud has replaced Jimmy Kimmel‘s late-night show after ABC ‘indefinitely’ dropped the host over comments about Charlie Kirk‘s assassination.
ABC announced it will be pulling Jimmy Kimmel Live! from the network amid the backlash the veteran host received for comments he made in the wake of the conservative activist’s death.
He insinuated Kirk’s suspected killer, Tyler Robinson, 22, was part of the ‘MAGA gang,’ and criticized how Donald Trump mourned the Turning Point USA co-founder.
While Jimmy Kimmel Live! has aired on ABC for 22 years, the network has wasted no time in replacing it with a family-favorite game show.
Steve Harvey’s Celebrity Family Feud aired during Kimmel’s usual 11:35 p.m. time slot.
Before Kimmel was cancelled, actor Rob Lowe and ‘The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox‘ star Grace Van Patten were set to appear, while Margo Price was going to perform.
The beginning of the end for the TV personality was during his Monday night monologue.

‘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 than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,’ he told the audience.
However, investigators say Robinson held far-left and anti-fascist political ideologies.
Kimmel went on to criticize Trump’s statement about Kirk’s death.
‘This is not how an adult grieves the murder of someone he called a friend. This is how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish, okay?’
Kimmel also aimed FBI Director Kash Patel, accusing him of mishandling the investigation.
‘Like a kid who didn’t read the book, BSing his way through an oral report.’
By Tuesday night, Kimmel doubled down, slamming Vice President JD Vance, who had guest-hosted Kirk’s podcast in the aftermath of the murder.
‘Trump is fanning the flames by attacking people on the left,’ he said.
‘Which is it – are they a bunch of sissy pickleball players because they’re too scared to be hit by tennis balls, or a well-organized, deadly team of commandos? Because they can’t be both of those things.’

Two ABC affiliate groups, Nexstar and Sinclair, also dropped Kimmel after his disastrous Monday night monologue.
Nexstar president Andrew Alford blasted Kimmel’s comments as ‘offensive and insensitive at a critical time in our national political discourse,’ on Wednesday.
Sinclair also issued a statement, saying it ‘objects to recent comments made by Mr’ Kimmel concerning the assassination of Charlie Kirk.’
‘We believe broadcasters have a responsibility to educate and elevate respectful, constructive dialogue in our communities,’ Vice Chairman Jason Smith said.
On Friday, during Kimmel’s time slot, Sinclair will air a special in remembrance of Kirk, 31, who was fatally shot at Utah Valley University in Orem during the first stop of his American Comeback Tour on September 10.
Sinclair said in its statement that it will offer the special to all ABC affiliates nationwide.
As ABC and its affiliates have denounced Kimmel’s sentiments, Trump has celebrated his ‘cancellation.’
‘Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED,’ Trump wrote.
‘Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that’s possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!!’

After Kimmel was dropped, Brendan Carr, the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, told Fox News he was ‘suffering the consequences’ of his actions.
Carr had previously expressed fury with Kimmel’s Kirk-related messages.
Earlier in the day on Wednesday, Carr told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson that he was considering an investigation into Kimmel and his network ABC.
‘When you look at the conduct that has taken place by Jimmy Kimmel, it appears to be some of the sickest conduct possible,’ Carr told Johnson.
‘As you’ve indicated, there are avenues here for the FCC, so there… are some ways in which I need to be a little bit careful because we could be called ultimately to be a judge on some of these claims that come up.’
