    ABC corporate greed was complicit in this until they realized profits spoke otherwise, don’t make the headline sound they like they are righteous.

    Pondy like ponderosa? Yeah, I'm happy to judge you for your namesake - a cheating drug addicted man hated by his entire family whose only "friends" would rather take out a life insurance policy in him than stop him from drinking himself to death. "Your loss" is a funny thought.

    Pondy is the coolest! 👍

    Not because they care about Kimmel, but instead because there was such public outrage and service cancellations. Americans need to start hitting companies with their wallets, and hard. The people running these companies are just like Trump. Whether you’re a republican or a democrat, they don’t give a shit about you , except for how much money they can extract from your wallet.

    They extended him for one year after canceling him. This is definitely a pr stunt. Fuck 'em! Like you said the only way to beat these people is withhold your money. That's the most effective, peaceful way to combat these leeches. It can be painful but worth it!

    This is probably the best thing to ever happen to Jimmy Kimmel's career.
