The Tonight Show executive producer Mike DiCenzo announces his departure
-
DiCenzo, one of three executive producers who oversee The Tonight Show, started working with Fallon 10 years ago today in preparation for the launch of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. “Today is my last day at the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. It is also the exact 10-year anniversary of my first day at Late Night. What a dream decade at my dream job,” DiCenzo wrote in the first of many tweets. Former Today executive producer Jim Bell will succeed DiCenzo as showrunner. The move is similar to what CBS did with The Late Show, when it brought in CBS This Morning's executive producer, Chris Licht, to oversee the show and assist Stephen Colbert.
