Jimmy Kimmel Live Cancels Thursday Night Episode Without Explanation
The late-night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! unexpectedly canceled its planned taping for Thursday night. The episode, which was supposed to feature David Duchovny, Joe Keery, and musical guest Madison Beer, was removed from the schedule.
In its place, ABC aired a repeat of the October 28 episode. The cancellation was announced earlier in the day, surprising fans and viewers who had been anticipating the lineup.
“Due to unforeseen circumstances, @jimmykimmellive needed to reschedule my performance that was originally scheduled to air tonight to a later date,” wrote Madison Beer on social media. Her segment had been pre-recorded before the change.
While no official reason has been released, industry sources suggest the decision may be related to a personal matter. The program is expected to resume with new episodes next week.
