Kimmel Live is moving into the thick of the late-night fight against Jay Leno and David Letterman, ABC said Tuesday, bumping Nightline from its longtime perch.
Starting Jan. 8, Kimmel's talk show will shift from 12: 05 a.m. to the 11: 35 p.m. time slot long held by the news magazine, taking advantage of Kimmel's ratings growth and the potential for greater ad revenue, the network said.
Nightline will swap places with Kimmel's show, airing at 12: 35 a.m.
