Jimmy Kimmel's show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", airs every weeknight at 11:35 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on ABC. It is a late-night talk show that typically broadcasts new episodes from Monday through Thursday, with Friday episodes often being reruns or occasionally new content depending on current events. The show has a history of not airing "live" despite its name since 2004, as it is usually taped earlier on the same day of the broadcast. This schedule is subject to occasional interruptions for special circumstances but generally follows a Monday to Friday pattern on weeknights.

Recently, after a temporary suspension in September 2025, the show resumed its weekly airing on ABC weeknights at the usual time of 11:35 p.m. EDT. However, some local ABC affiliates owned by groups such as Sinclair and Nexstar have chosen not to air the show, although it remains available through other local ABC stations and streaming services.

In summary, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" airs five nights a week (weeknights) at 11:35 p.m. EDT on ABC, with new episodes typically on Monday through Thursday and varied programming on Fridays.
