Not to be outdone, Colbert will host Kimmel on <em>The Late Show<\/em> that very same night, Sept. 30.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>More from Gold Derby<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The television time travel act will be made possible by slight shifts in productions schedules, which will allow the hosts to travel between Brooklyn and Manhattan&#8217;s Ed Sullivan Theater as needed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The news comes as Kimmel&#8217;s return to broadcast becomes even more complete. Sinclair, the largest affiliate owner group in the U.S., announced on Friday that it is ending its campaign of preempting <em>Jimmy Kimmel Live!<\/em> in the wake of his comments about the right&#8217;s reaction to Charlie Kirk&#8217;s killing. The notoriously conservative company reportedly agree to air Kimmel in its markets again after &#8220;productive&#8221; talks with ABC and the network&#8217;s parent company, Disney.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">According to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2025\/09\/jimmy-kimmel-returning-sinclair-abc-stations-disney-1236557379\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Deadline;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Deadline<\/a>, Disney agreed to install an independent network-wide ombudsman in the wake of the controversy, which resulted in Kimmel&#8217;s show being suspended for a little under a week and a massive wave of public backlash that sent the company&#8217;s stock price plummeting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Kimmel&#8217;s return on Tuesday brought a massive number of eyeballs to the late night show. Disney reported that his first show back drew 6.26 million viewers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Meanwhile, Colbert is fresh off the first win in Best Talk Variety for his iteration of <em>The Late Show<\/em> at the Emmys. After accepting the award earlier this month, he said that his only immediate plans are to &#8220;land this plane absolutely beautifully&#8221; ahead of the show&#8217;s end next year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Best of Gold Derby<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Sign up for <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pages.email.goldderby.com\/signup\/?source=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Gold Derby's Newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Gold Derby&#8217;s Newsletter<\/a>.
