'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' renewed for 5 years/ ANI

The popular American talk show 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' has been renewed for five years, a longer commitment from NBC to the host than the network had previously disclosed.

As per Variety, Susan Rovner, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming chairman, confirmed the news of the show's renewal during NBCUniversal's upfront presentation on Monday.

Although the talk show has fallen behind CBS' 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' and ABC's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' in total viewership, the late-night mainstay is has been such a part of the fabric of NBC that its renewal was not in doubt nor is Fallon's hold on the host chair seen in as in jeopardy.

Fallon began hosting the show in February 2014, taking over from Jay Leno. 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' is produced by Universal Television and Broadway Video.
