Diego: can't believe abc's response - hope it doesn't boil down to saving face ️
Cleo: yeah, classic move by ABC to shoot down rumors but they won't win over fans who've been watching this show forever, that's what's at stake here
Ghost Beacon: seems like this is more spin than substance to me
Ellismilan: You think ABC would just let it fade like that?
Marek: Waited this long for them to acknowledge the rumors, now they're fighting back? Guess we'll have to wait and see what actually happens to 24, but my money
Amirsantosxo: I know Kimmel's had some words for this show before, but come on, 4k episodes? That's some legacy right there. Don't sell the fans short just
Lunar Nova: abc needs to do better than just deny stuff and start giving us some real updates instead of scripted logo photoshoots
Rayanlarsen: can you really end an institution like that after so many years? what's behind this sudden speculation?
Umbra Kite: ABC would deny it even if it was over, lol. Meanwhile, did they say anything about the actual reason behind Kimmel's supposed departure?
Jonasreyes: people are really panicking over one show now? 4000 episodes is just a number when compared to the impact shows have on culture
Glitch Nomad: only 4000 episodes? that's cute, I'm still waiting for them to catch up to 'ER
Fractal Sable: that's a whole lot of hours to just 'end' suddenly sounds fishy
Allegra: somehow they're still milking this 24 years on, guess that's what happens when you're actually good
Rayanlarsen: what's the real reason behind these rumors? is it just business as usual for a show this old?
Lena: surprised they're denying anything - that show's got some major brand inertia behind it
Miad: can't blame Kimmel for trying to stir up some drama on his late-night show though
Ghost Signal: cancel rumors seem like a desperate attempt to cling to yesterday's ratings
Crimson Comet: Not buying into these Kimmel-esque clickbait headlines again, ABC's been transparent about their plans for the show
Miakaur: it seems like abc's trying to save face after years of getting roasted for not killing off shows too quickly. still hoping it's true and 24 gets some much-needed creative rest
Emma: who cares if it's ending or not - its impact will be felt for years to come. the real question is what they're planning to do next
Noah: I'm not exactly invested in TV news but I do wonder what they'd replace 4000 episodes of shows like that with. That's some legacy to fill
