Jimmy Kimmel returned to his ABC late‑night slot and used a playful angle from The Bachelorette to poke at rumors about a playoff series.
In his monologue, he cited a promo that teased a Cavaliers‑Knicks clash and aired the day before a deciding Game 7, suggesting the timing fed into the chatter. He joked that if ABC could truly predict outcomes, they wouldn’t have spent millions canceling a season of The Bachelorette.
ABC said the promo ran by mistake, and Kimmel treated it as comic fodder. Separately, Deadline notes that The Bachelorette Season 22 was pulled in March amid Taylor Frankie Paul’s controversy, with no word yet on whether the season will air on ABC or Hulu.
