Jimmy Kimmel Live! unexpectedly canceled its planned Thursday night taping. The episode initially scheduled to feature David Duchovny, Joe Keery, and musical guest Madison Beer was removed from the schedule.
Instead, ABC is airing a repeat of the October 28 episode in its place.
The cancellation was announced late Thursday afternoon. Madison Beer, whose performance had been pre-recorded for the show, addressed the change on social media:
“Due to unforeseen circumstances, @jimmykimmellive needed to reschedule my performance that was originally scheduled to air tonight to a later date.”
No official explanation has been given for the cancellation, though sources indicate it relates to a personal matter.
The show is set to resume with new episodes next week.
