Jim Bell, a longtime NBC veteran, is opting out of 'The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon' after a year on the job.
Jim Bell, a veteran producer who has overseen NBC’s crown jewels “Tonight,” “Today” and the Olympics, is leaving the network after a 30-year run.
Bell served as executive producer of “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” since October 2018 after leading NBC’s Olympics coverage for six years. Fallon’s program has trailed CBS’ “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” in the ratings as Colbert has become the leading late night commentator on the Trump administration.
In a statement issued Monday, Bell said when he agreed to take over “Tonight,” he “would only commit for a year” and has chosen to move on. “The past year with Jimmy and the terrific team at the show has been a blast, and I will always be grateful for this opportunity. But after serious contemplation, I realized I did not want to extend my time at the show,” Bell said.
