Leno & Kimmel To Cross Each Other’s Picket Line Thursday!! Stewart/Colbert '08 Tonight!!
|
Perhaps because they’re getting sick of talking to game-show hosts (Hulk Hogan tonight joins Bob Saget and Howie Mandel among the SAG members who have crossed NBC talk show picket lines; David Letterman is tonight making do with Tom Hanks), Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel will appear on each other’s shows Thursday night.
Look! Press release!
ON JANUARY 10, RIVAL LATE-NIGHT HOSTS JAY LENO AND JIMMY KIMMEL ARE SCHEDULED TO HIT EACH OTHER’S COUCHES ON THE SAME NIGHT
One Good Turn Deserves Another as Popular Late Night Hosts Reciprocate Guest Bookings on Each Other’s Shows in Rare Dual Appearances
BURBANK -- January 7, 2008 -- Has television's vaunted "Late Night War" softened? On Thursday, January 10, NBC's "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" (Monday-Friday, 11:35 p.m. - 12:37 a.m. ET) will welcome rival late-night host Jimmy Kimmel to the famed couch in Burbank. In return -- on the same night -- Leno will make a trip across town to take a seat on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" (Monday - Friday, 12:05 a.m. - 1:05 a.m. ET on ABC) during its taping in Hollywood.
"There are only three or five people in the world that know how tough this job is," said Leno of the swap. "Jimmy is one of them. It will be fun to discuss who's a good guest, who’s a difficult guest and everything else that comes with sitting behind these desks."
Kimmel said, "If Jay and I can come together and guest on each other’s shows, then surely there is hope for peace in the Middle East."
"The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" is from Big Dog Productions in association with Universal Media Studios.
"Jimmy Kimmel Live" is shot live in front of a studio audience and produced by Jackhole Industries in association with ABC Studios.
Also picketed are “The Daily Show With Jon Stewart” and “The Colbert Report,” both of which return tonight – sans writers – with their first new episodes since Nov. 1.
