Apparently his “triumphant return” produced huge ratings. Curiosity I would guess to see him apologize. The ratings were only out of curiosity. Like going to a freak show just once.

Good analysis.

A lot of that happened, I suspect it also had to do with the Liberals vowing to support the guy against Trump, until they watched for a day or two and realized he wasn’t funny and they were wasting their time because they’re so many other Trump atrocities to protest against...

The huge ratings story was a lie.

Kimmel’s ratings that first night were great for Kimmel, not the time slot.

This is virtue signaling at its finest. Nobody watched him before despite the outrage. So Kimmel comes backs and the leftists cheer and tune in for exactly one night in support…. Then poof …. Back to Netflix for them…. Back to Jimmy Fallon beating Kimmel nightly

“The ratings were only out of curiosity.”

100%

I don’t believe I ever watched his show. I also have no cause to believe I ever missed anything.

I actually considered watching his show that one time but could not. I did not want to contribute to his ratings.
