CTB ... Heading into Fall




Hot off his successful performance as host of the 64th Annual Primetime Emmys, Jimmy Kimmel is on fire!


CTB is excited to announce that on January 8, 2013 Jimmy Kimmel Live! moves to 11:35pm on ABC. The numbers from the 2011 - 2012 TV Season really illustrate the strength and momentum of the show:



For the complete 2011-12 TV season, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live grew its overall audience for the 3rd consecutive year (+3%), generating its most-watched season ever. JKL stood as the only late-night broadcast talk show to build over its prior season in Total Viewers, as NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (-5%), Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (-2%) and Last Call with Carson Daly (-4%) and CBS’ The Late Show with David Letterman (-11%) and Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (-13%) were all down.
