In a dramatic shift for late-night television, ABC has announced that conservative media personalities Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens will co-host a new show, replacing “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” This unprecedented move aims to diversify the network’s offerings and cater to a broader audience.
ABC’s decision to pair Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens for its new late-night show, provisionally titled “The New Late Night,” marks a bold departure from the comedic and often politically liberal content of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” The network believes this dynamic duo will bring fresh perspectives and invigorate the late-night scene with engaging debates and discussions.
Emily Watts, ABC’s head of programming, highlighted the excitement surrounding this new venture: “We are excited to introduce Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens as the new faces of our late-night lineup.

Owens also hinted at the show’s format, promising a blend of political commentary, cultural discussions, and interviews with diverse guests. “We aim to create a space where all voices can be heard and where viewers can engage with a wide range of perspectives,” she added.
Tucker Carlson, a prominent figure in conservative media, shared his vision for “The New Late Night.” “We’re here to break the mold and offer viewers a different kind of late-night show,” Carlson said. “With Candace by my side, we’re going to tackle the big issues head-on and bring some much-needed variety to the genre.”
Carlson’s extensive experience in television and his knack for engaging audiences will be instrumental in shaping the show’s identity. His partnership with Owens is seen as a powerful combination that could redefine late-night television.
