Jimmy Kimmel Goes DIY After Power Outage

kimmel_mac_ql.jpgYou didn't see any clips from Jimmy Kimmel Live in Late Night Highlights because a power outage shut down the control room, broadcast transmission center and tape operations area just one hour before the show was scheduled to tape. That was bad news for guest Seth Rogen -- who was set to premiere the trailer for The Green Hornet -- but good news for Steve Jobs, since Kimmel decided to tape the entire broadcast on his Macbook Pro webcam. And it worked! The fruit of Kimmel's labor will air tonight at his regularly scheduled time. [USA Today]

    Obviously this is just a PR stunt and the power didn't really go out. C'mon, Movieline, get a grip.

    Had to join on the bandwagon.

    Obviously this is just a PR... oh, whatever. I'm as cynical as they come, but I have a hard time believing the power outage was done as a "stunt."
