“JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE” STUDIO POWER OUTAGE
CREATES UNIQUE SHOW OPPORTUNITY

An hour before show time last night, a power outage shut down the Jimmy Kimmel Live control room, broadcast transmission center and tape operations area. With guests and a studio audience waiting, Jimmy recorded the whole show on his laptop using his computer's webcam.

Kimmel welcomed guests Seth Rogen (“The Green Hornet”), John Henson (“Wipeout”) and country star Dierks Bentley -- who improvised with an acoustic performance from his new album, “Up on the Ridge.” During Rogen’s interview, Jimmy ran the much anticipated exclusive world premiere of the trailer from “The Green Hornet.”

This unintentionally special episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” will be broadcast tonight at 12:05 a.m., on ABC.

...and Jimmy did put together a good show, under the circumstances. But I wish he'd quit being a "paid shill" for whatever ABC/Disney throws at him to promote, whether it's their movies, TV shows or basketball playoffs [I also saw his "drawings" segment promoting "Toy Story 3"- enough, already!!!]. He once claimed he's being paid in "Disney dollars"...well, you get what you paid for!
