Jimmy Kimmel has openly criticized CBS after the network announced that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will end in May 2026 after running for 10 seasons. The entire Late Show franchise will also be retired. However, the cause seems to be up in the air, as ratings were good, and CBS recently settled a lawsuit with Trump.
The host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! shared his strong disapproval on Instagram, writing, “Love you Stephen. F*** you and all your Sheldons CBS.” This harsh comment appears to be a reference to CBS’s hit show The Big Bang Theory, its spinoff Young Sheldon, and the spinoff of that show, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, and the upcoming Big Bang Theory spinoff with the reported name Stuart Fails to Save the Universe. All of which are based in the TV universe of Sheldon Cooper.
