Jimmy Fallon is celebrating 10 years as host of The Tonight Show—for a second time.
NBC will replay The Tonight Show’s 10th anniversary special tonight in primetime.
The program compiles clips of sketches, interviews, music, and more from the show’s first decade, with new introductions from Fallon throughout.
The much-hyped special originally aired in May and was a ratings winner for NBC, drawing in more than 3.5 million viewers and finishing No. 1 in its time slot among adults 18 to 49. Those ratings had a halo effect on that night’s episode of The Tonight Show in its regular time slot. Fallon’s 10-year highlight show was also critically celebrated, including by LateNighter’s own Bill Carter.
NBC also made the special available on Peacock, but with a big booking on Fallon’s show tonight, NBC may be hoping linear ratings history repeats itself. Fallon will welcome Kim Kardashian as his lead guest. (Daveed Diggs, Charlie Vickers, and comedian Jessica Keenan round out the lineup.)
Fallon began his tenure on The Tonight Show on February 17, 2014. Since the anniversary special first aired, the show has reached another major milestone: July 18 marked the show’s 2,000th episode.
The two-hour Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon: 10th Anniversary Special will air on Wednesday at 9 p.m.
A brand new episode of The Tonight Show will follow after the local news at 11:35 p.m.
jimmy has more talent in the tip of his pinky nail than all the other late night hosts combined, like since late night began decades ago.
Where can I stream this???
I’m so frustrated. The 10th anniversary special isn’t available on Peacock like the regular episodes. I can’t find it anywhere and my DVR didn’t record it. Where can I go to watch it?
