The Thursday taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live! was unexpectedly canceled late this afternoon. The planned episode, featuring David Duchovny, Joe Keery, and musical guest Madison Beer, was removed from the schedule without prior notice.
Instead of the new episode, ABC decided to air a repeat from October 28. No official statement has yet been issued explaining the reason behind the cancellation.
“Due to unforeseen circumstances, @jimmykimmellive needed to reschedule my performance that was originally scheduled to air tonight to a later date.” — Madison Beer
According to LateNighter, the decision is believed to be related to a personal matter. The show is expected to resume broadcasting fresh episodes next week.
