Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon Swap Shows for April Fool's Day — WATCH

Late-night TV’s Jimmys had their respective audiences doing a double take on April Fool’s Day, as Kimmel hosted NBC’s The Tonight Show from New York City, while Fallon lorded over ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live in Los Angeles.

At 11:35 pm ET Friday, Kimmel and Fallon simultaneously opened each other’s shows for a bit, before going to a split screen to check in with one another, joke about rifling through the other’s dressing room, and marvel over the logistics of the “prank.”

To be sure, Kimmel Live‘s Guillermo Rodriguez was at Fallon’s side on the ABC telecast, while Fallon’s sidekick, Steve Higgins, joined Kimmel on NBC’s Tonight Show.

The two hosts then ran a video where they pranked fans via a photo op where the stranger started off posing with one of the late night hosts, only to realize the other had sneaked into frame when their back was turned.

“A number of other surprises” were said to be in store throughout each show’s telecast, with Red Hot Chili Peppers serving as the musical guest for both programs.

Watch the intro video above, and tell us if this switcheroo caught you off guard this April 1.
