ABC Postpones ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Over Host’s Personal Matter
The episode featuring David Duchovny from Malice, Joe Keery from Stranger Things, and musical guest Madison Beer was postponed due to a “personal matter” concerning the host.
Fans who planned to attend the taping at the El Capitan Theatre were informed that the show was delayed and would be rescheduled, with tickets valid for a future date.
Madison Beer addressed her audience on social media: “Due to unforeseen circumstances, Jimmy Kimmel Live needed to reschedule my performance that was originally set to air tonight to a later date. I’ll share more details on timing when I can, I can’t wait for you all to see it.”
Instead of a new episode, ABC aired a repeat from October 28. Although it is uncommon for Jimmy Kimmel or other late-night hosts to miss shows, personal matters sometimes take precedence given their demanding schedules.
Summary
ABC postponed a scheduled episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live" due to a personal issue involving the host, rescheduling both the guests' appearances and musical performance for a later date.
