"We can't wait to bring our show to fans of Sunday Night Football," Tonight Show showrunner Chris Miller told The Hollywood Reporter. "It's going to be a must-watch night of TV."
This won't be Fallon's first time following an NFL broadcast; far from it, in 2019, five episodes of The Tonight Show aired on Sundays once the evening's NFL games had concluded.
It's been a challenging time for talk shows, full stop; the growth in popularity of YouTube channels has changed the game substantially and has offered new competitors for both celebrity guests and overall viewers.
Podcasts, too, have seen their relevance grow: in 2016, Donald Trump's Tonight Show appearance launched a thousand thinkpieces. Now, Trump and Kamala Harris are making headlines for appearing on podcasts to boost their campaigns.
