Late-night television is reeling from a bombshell announcement: Jimmy Kimmel, host of the long-running Jimmy Kimmel Live!, is officially stepping away from his iconic desk and leaving the United States for good. In an emotional monologue on last night’s episode, Kimmel broke the news to stunned viewers, declaring, “This is it. I’m moving to Canada, and I’m never coming back.”

For over two decades, Kimmel has been a staple of late-night  TV, blending sharp political satire, hilarious  celebrity interviews, and viral comedic segments. His departure marks the end of one of the most enduring and influential late-night programs in television history.
