Morons still don’t understand-24% in the ratings isn’t a good model for sustainable business.
Most of the numbers I see....from 2018-to-2022....the show was not generating profit to cover Kimmel’s $15M salary, the guests cost, and the production team. Added to this problem....less urbanized stations (Missouri, Carolinas, Tenn for example)...they were not making anything much off commercials. Maybe for his initial first five years...before he got political...he made the network/stations money.
