Show publicist Chelsea Hettrick says the lights went out
Monday night about an hour before ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" was set
to begin taping at its Hollywood studio. She says the outage shut down the
control room, broadcast transmission center and tape operations area.
Hettrick says as guests and a studio audience waited, Kimmel
grabbed his laptop and recorded the entire show with his computer's webcam.
Hettrick says guests Seth Rogen, John Henson and country
artist Dierks Bentley were very accommodating in "going with what
happened."
There's no word on what caused the outage.
The show will be broadcast on ABC Wednesday at 12:05 a.m.
