The wait is finally over! After a prolonged hiatus due to the WGA strike, late-night television is roaring back to life, and among the most anticipated returns is ABC's beloved 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!'. Fans can mark their calendars for a star-studded week, kicking off on October 2nd, with a particularly exciting lineup announced for Thursday, October 5th: Hollywood's current heartthrob, Glen Powell, and the iconic singer-songwriter, Sarah McLachlan.
Jimmy Kimmel, known for his witty humor and insightful interviews, is set to reclaim his late-night throne, and he's not coming back quietly.
The full week promises a cavalcade of stars, ensuring that 'Kimmel' makes a grand re-entry into the late-night landscape.
For the much-anticipated return on Monday, October 2nd, audiences will be treated to the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger, who will likely share stories from his illustrious career, accompanied by a performance from the rock giants, Foo Fighters.
The energy continues on Tuesday, October 3rd, with the hilarious Wanda Sykes gracing the stage, and country music sensation Kelsea Ballerini providing the musical entertainment. Wednesday, October 4th, features the charming Dax Shepard, with indie-pop darling St. Vincent delivering a captivating musical act.
However, it's Thursday, October 5th, that really has buzz building.
Glen Powell, fresh off his standout role in 'Top Gun: Maverick' and gearing up for the romantic comedy 'Anyone But You' alongside Sydney Sweeney, is sure to bring his charismatic energy. His appearance promises engaging anecdotes and possibly some sneak peeks into his upcoming projects. Sharing the stage with him will be the incomparable Sarah McLachlan, whose soulful voice has touched millions worldwide.
Her performance, undoubtedly, will be a highlight, potentially featuring classics or new material. To round out the evening, country music star Carly Pearce is slated as the musical guest, ensuring a diverse and entertaining night.
The return of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' is a significant moment for television.
The show, like many others, went dark on May 2nd when the Writers Guild of America went on strike. Kimmel himself was a vocal supporter of the writers, often speaking out in solidarity. His return, alongside 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon', 'Late Night with Seth Meyers', 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert', and a hostless 'The Daily Show', signals a vibrant revival for a genre many have deeply missed.
Get ready for laughter, insightful conversations, and unforgettable musical performances as late-night TV lights up our screens once more!
