The scheduled episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live featuring Malice star David Duchovny, Stranger Things actor Joe Keery, and musical guest Madison Beer was postponed on Thursday because of a personal issue involving the host.
ABC did not specify why the show was pulled, but attendees who planned to be at the El Capitan Theatre taping received notice that it was delayed and that they would be given tickets for a future date.
“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.” — Madison Beer
In place of the new episode, ABC aired a repeat from October 28. It’s unusual for Jimmy Kimmel, or any broadcast late-night host, to miss a night, but such situations occasionally occur due to personal matters.
ABC delayed a new episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live for a personal reason involving the host, replacing it with an earlier rerun and promising rescheduled tickets to audiences.
