One admirer said, “Kimmel is more than just a comedian; he’s a voice.” “Whether you like him or not, he’s always been willing to stand up for what he believes in.”
With his departure, late-night television would lose one of its most audacious voices, raising concerns about political comedy’s future in a divided country.
Will more celebrities fleeing contentious politics as a result of Kimmel’s departure? Or will he be seen as a unique individual who stood by his convictions despite the repercussions?
There is little doubt that Kimmel will leave a hole in American entertainment when his last program ends. One social media remark appears.
To sum up the sentiment as his admirers get ready for the tearful farewell: “We’ll miss you, Jimmy.” Canada is unaware of their good fortune.
