Production
On March 13, 2019, it was announced that NBC had made a 10-episode order for That's My Jam, a variety game show which would feature celebrities competing in music-themed challenges inspired by those seen on its late-night talk show The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. On January 11, 2020, it was announced that Fallon would host the series (marking his first primetime series for NBC), which was slated to premiere after the closing ceremonies of the 2020 Summer Olympics. However due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Olympics were postponed to 2021, while NBC slated different programming to air after the closing ceremonies instead.
On October 28, 2021, it was announced that the series would premiere on January 3, 2022 as part of NBC's midseason lineup, with a special preview episode airing on November 29 featuring Kelly Clarkson, Ariana Grande, John Legend, and Blake Shelton of The Voice.
On February 7, 2022, NBC renewed the series for a second season, which premiered on March 7, 2023. On October 17, 2023, NBC renewed the series for a third season. On February 27, 2024, it was announced that production had been paused for the third season.
Format
The game features celebrity teams competing in music-themed challenges, some of which adapted from recurring segments on The Tonight Show, such as "Mixtape Medley Showdown", "Slay It, Don't Spray It", and "Wheel of Musical Impressions".
