New episodes of Jimmy Kimmel Live return to air Wednesday, January 2 (12:05-1:05 a.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

"Though it makes me sick to do so without my writers, there are more than a hundred people whose financial well-being depends on our show. It is time to go back to work. I support my colleagues and friends in the WGA completely and hope this ends both fairly and soon," said host Jimmy Kimmel.
