It’s been a long month for The Tonight Show fans.
Thanks to NBC’s Winter Olympics coverage, The Tonight Show has been off the air for weeks since its special post-Olympics broadcast on February 6. That episode drew the show’s largest audience since November 2024 when it aired after NBC’s Thanksgiving Thursday Night Football broadcast, sending The Tonight Show into its break on a high note.
Since that special broadcast, The Tonight Show has been pulled from the air to make room for late-night Olympics coverage. Thankfully, with the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics coming to an end, NBC’s schedule is about to return to normal which means The Tonight Show will finally be back on the schedule. Not only will The Tonight Show return to NBC’s lineup, but fans can actually look forward to new episodes of the Jimmy Fallon-hosted late-night show!
NBC has released the schedule for the week of February 23 and confirmed new episodes will be airing Monday through Thursday. After an extended break, NBC has lined up quite a guest list for The Tonight Show’s first week back.
Ahead of Scream 7’s release on February 27, the cast will be making the talk show rounds this week which includes The Tonight Show. Franchise veterans Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox will both sit down with Fallon early in the week to promote the latest sequel in the hit horror franchise. Scream fans won’t want to miss the pair’s appearances which will likely bring some new footage for fans and details about the latest chapter in the franchise.
Also dropping by The Tonight Show this week will be long-time Survivor host Jeff Probst, who will sit down with Fallon on Tuesday night. Probst’s appearance comes less than 24 hours before the Survivor 50 premiere on Wednesday night to promote the historic season and spill the tea on the returning players to watch. Speaking of returnees, Survivor 50 star Mike White will also be stopping by to sit down with Fallon timed to the Survivor 50 premiere. It’ll be fun to see what White can share about his return to the game, and we’re also hoping to see some news about The White Lotus season 4.
Additional guests scheduled to appear this week include Tracy Morgan, Kit Harington, Jackson White, and Priyanka Chopra as well as some amazing musical guests. Here’s the full lineup for this week’s new Tonight Show episodes:
- Monday, February 23: Guests include Tracy Morgan, Neve Campbell, Cooper Flagg and musical guest TWICE.
