Everybody is loving John Krasinski's YouTube series "Some Good News—"and for good reason.

The show, which highlights, well, uplifting news while we're spending more time indoors, is the feel-good program that we need. Just like recorded moments of appreciation for essential workers all around the world, it's a chance for us to remember that, although we might be living through difficult times, it's all temporary.

Tonight, Krasinski is back at it, this time hoping to cheer up high school seniors that will, unfortunately, be missing out on their traditional proms this year.

The actor announced on Instagram that he will be hosting a virtual prom on "Some Good News" tonight at 8pm EST/5pm PST. He will DJing the event, of course. Take a look at the official invitation:

It seems like Krasinski's altruism knows no bounds. Just last week, to the delight of just about all of humanity, he enlisted the help of the original cast of Broadway's Hamilton to perform "Alexander Hamilton" over Zoom in an effort to surprise a little girl. He was also able to secure lifetime Red Sox tickets for Boston hospital workers and AT&T cellphone service for health-care employees around the United States.

Tonight's prom is obviously dedicated to students, but anyone can join in through this link. You don't want to miss out on this one: Krasinski teased that a few of his friends will be part of the fun. Will that, perhaps, include his wife Emily Blunt? We shall see.
