Viewers of " Jimmy Kimmel Live" won't see the usual host this week ... he's taking time off for a good reason though, to spend it with his son who underwent a second heart surgery on Monday. Instead, a slew of special guest hosts will take over duties for Kimmel while he cares for son Billy. Some of the hosts include Chris Pratt, Tracee Ellis Ross, Neil Patrick Harris and Melissa McCarthy. The network released a statement announcing the news on Monday, and called the surgery a successful one. Since his son was born in April, Kimmel has become a high-profile advocate in the health care debate.
