Viewers tuning in to Jimmy Kimmel Live ! on Thursday night were surprised to see a rerun instead of the new episode that had been promoted. The show was scheduled to feature David Duchovny , Stranger Things actor Joe Keery and singer Madison Beer . No announcement was made before the change, which led to confusion and questions across social media.
Sudden schedule change with no explanation
The only confirmation came from Madison Beer. She posted on Instagram that her appearance had been “rescheduled due to unforeseen circumstances.” Duchovny and Keery did not comment. The show’s official channels also remained silent, and ABC did not respond to requests for clarification.
One viewer shared an email from the show’s audience department stating that the taping had been postponed and that tickets would be rebooked. Entertainment site LateNighter suggested the delay was due to a personal matter concerning Kimmel, though no details were provided.
This is the first unplanned change since Kimmel was briefly suspended in September after comments he made about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk drew backlash. He later apologised on-air. The incident caused tension between the host and the network, and the show has since struggled to regain stable ratings and advertiser confidence.
No word on when new episodes will resumeAs of Friday morning, there has been no update from Kimmel or ABC about when fresh episodes will return. The sudden silence has raised new questions about what is happening behind the scenes.
