Last year, Jimmy Kimmel took the summer off because of the pandemic. This year, he is doing the same.
Since the show must go on, it will with guest hosts. Starting on July 6th, Wanda Sykes, Nick Kroll, David Spade, Anthony Mackie, Sarah Silverman, Arsenio Hall, Julie Bowen, Maren Morris, Phoebe Robinson, Niall Horan, and many more will be sitting in his chair.
However, the cushiest job is going to Anthony Anderson. He will be coming off of the bench to fill in for Kimmel for the Jimmy Kimmel Live: NBA Finals Game Night episode. Any basketball would want the job, and the black-ish star got the title.
When it comes to Kimmel, I have a feeling that next year will be his final year of hosting the ABC late night talk show. Whenever they start bringing in replacements, it feels like the host is ready to move on. I could be wrong; we will find out.
