‘Post Apocalyptic’ Shows From Home With production suspended indefinitely on their respective
late-night shows, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel have decided to take matters into their own hands. On March 16, in the place of his usual 11:35 p.m. time
slot, Colbert released a video that saw him perform
his late-night monologue from a bathtub. During the video, which he dubbed

to YouTube to perform at-home versions of their shows. Fallon’s nearly 10 minute-video featured him

“St. Patrick’s Day quarantine” song. According to Fallon, ‘The Tonight Show: At Home
Edition’ will be released “every night” to give his fans
“some type of content” until his show comes back. Kimmel similarly promised
to release a mini-monologue
“every day until we get back.” His first video saw him poking
fun at Donald Trump and talking
about the overwhelming amount of
