Jimmy Kimmel Does Entire Show On Webcam After Blackout

I haven’t been watching a whole lot of late night talk shows lately because Netflix’s “watch instantly” feature has ruined my life, but this looks like it could be something.  From the Huffington Post:

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.

That episode should air Wednesday night.

The past few years have seen a serious uptick in my opinion of Jimmy Kimmel.  It just feels like he’s trying harder than everyone else.  Am I wrong?  And am I asking for a Conan fan to argue with me in the comments?  Yes, yes I am.  I like Conan too, I’m just saying I think Kimmel’s been  doing more creative stuff lately.   By the way, where is Conan?  Something happen?
