Update: ABC ended up changing this week’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” schedule.
The Garbage performance aired on June 14 rather than June 15. Oprah, who was listed as the interview guest for June 15, will now appear on the June 16 “Jimmy Kimmel Live: Game Night” that precedes game six of the NBA Finals.
Instead of an original episode, ABC will re-run the 6/8 episode (Ghostbusters new and old, Post Malone) on 6/15.
