Jimmy Fallon is allegedly leveraging his celebrity friendships to boost ‘The Tonight Show’s’ declining ratings and revenue.  An insider says, “When Jimmy took the Tonight Show job ten years ago, he pretty much insisted on five tapings a week and promised the decision would pay for itself. For the first few years of the show, it apparently did. But 2024 is a different time and the amount of advertisers willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for thirty seconds during Jimmy’s show have definitely shrunk.

A new docuseries on Hulu starring Luke Bryan called “It’s All Country” will premiere on November 15th.  The show will do a deep dive with some of Country music’s biggest stars and try to uncover the secret stories of their biggest hits.
