David Letterman briefly spoke with Jimmy Kimmel after his late night show was "indefinitely" pulled from ABC. "I have heard from Jimmy. He was nice enough to text me this morning," Letterman, 78, said at the Atlantic Festival in New York City on Thursday, September 18. "He's sitting up in bed taking nourishment. He's going to be fine." Us Weekly confirmed on Wednesday, September 17, that ABC pulled Kimmel's eponymous Jimmy Kimmel Live! from their TV slate. "Jimmy Kimmel Live! will be preempted indefinitely," a spokesperson for the network told Us.
