Why 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' Isn't New This Week
'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' is taking a holiday break. Here's the full schedule of encore episodes you can watch this week, featuring guests like Timothée Chalamet and Millie Bobby Brown.
If you're settling in for your nightly dose of late-night comedy, you might be wondering where Jimmy Fallon is. 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon', like many of its counterparts, won't be airing new episodes during the week of Christmas, according to Entertainment Weekly. But don't worry—NBC has a stacked lineup of encore presentations, giving you a chance to catch up on some of the best moments from recent weeks.
A Star-Studded Rewind Schedule
The week kicks off on Monday with a rerun of the Dec. 7 episode, co-hosted by 'Stranger Things' star Millie Bobby Brown. Tuesday will feature the Dec. 17 broadcast with 'Marty Supreme' actor Timothée Chalamet and 'Stranger Things' creators, the Duffer Brothers.
There will be no show on Wednesday, as the broadcast will be preempted for Christmas Eve Mass from St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. The laughs return on Thursday with a Dec. 10 rerun featuring actors Kate Hudson and John Stamos. To close out the week, Friday's encore is the Dec. 8 episode with Mila Kunis, Zooey Deschanel, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
Fallon's Strategy: Laughter Over Politics
Since taking over the historic NBC program in 2014, Fallon has maintained a strategy of prioritizing broad comedy, even in a politically charged climate. "Our show has never really been that political," Fallon told CNBC in a September interview. "We hit both sides equally, and we try to make everybody laugh." This approach has continued despite past criticism from figures like former President Donald Trump, who in July referred to Fallon as one of the "next to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes."
The traditional holiday hiatus for late-night shows underscores their reliance on a linear broadcast model. In an era dominated by on-demand streaming and viral clips, these planned breaks highlight the challenge for legacy media to maintain daily relevance and audience engagement outside of their scheduled time slots.
