    Default The Tonight Show debacle


    Team Conan or Team Leno?


    I don't know if you guys are following this but late night talkshows in the US is serious business. Now sometime last year, Jay (big chin) Leno decided to quit the Tonight Show to do an experimental program at a much earlier time slot. Conan O'Brien replaced him as the host of America's successful late night comedy. Ex-SNL Jimmy Fallon even got his own circus replacing Conan, and some douche in the name of Carson Daly has his own also after Fallon's. Everything was all fine and dandy right?

    Well it didn't go as planned. Leno's new show sucked and had poor ratings so NBC had no choice but to dump it's 10:00PM slot, and put him on 11:35PM instead, bumping the Tonight Show with Conan on a much later time. Conan O'Brien didn't think this was a good move as this would ruin the Tonight Show's legacy so he decided to quit. So in the end, not only 'big jaw' Leno get's his time slot back, he ends up being the Tonight Show host again.

    Now I don't know bout you guys, but this just makes me hate Jay Leno even more. Not only is he not funny, I never forgave him for what he did in the early 90's when he weaseled his way of getting the Tonight Show, when it was suppose to be for David Letterman after the great Johnny Carson retired. Now he's screwing everybody again. The least he could do is quit when his new show didn't work, and really make way for the new talent. Wouldn't that be a classy thing to do? What do you guys think?

    Either way though, Letterman get's the last laugh.

    I've been watching Conan since Andy was his sidekick...the first time around. That must have been around 1995. I was 11-12 years old. Conan also got me through college. My late night study break would always be when Conan was on.

    Jay Leno should retire like he was suppose to. I don't understand why NBC loves to suck on Leno's d*ck. Leno is old news, his jokes are lame. He's the douchebag here and he goes on his monologues acting all butt hurt like he's the victim. Leno should disappear forever. He can work on his stupid looking cars.

    Think about it, Conan and his staff uprooted their lives and families to move to Los Angeles to do the Tonight Show. That's The Tonight Show at 11:35, like Conan said, if it was any later it would be tomorrow's show.

    Conan should move to another network he's to good for NBC. I would love to see him back to back to back with John Stewart and the Colbert Report.

    I love what Conan said just recently:
    "Kids, you can achieve anything you want in life....unless Jay Leno wants it too."

    Brilliant!


    I am reading reports that Fox could be interested in Conan. That would be a fun thing to watch wouldn't it? Him, Leno, and Letterman all going at each other. If he transfers to Fox, he can even do a guest cameo on Glee as he likes to perform himself.

    Oh well, one thing I've learned from all of this though is that the knuckleheads on NBC do like to screw great talent.

    Asked by Leno: what he hasn't yet hosted, but would like to...

    (Jimmy Kimmel) "Oh, this is a trick, right? Where you get me to host The Tonight Show and then take it back from me?"

    Asked by Leno: why he came on to do the segment...

    (Jimmy Kimmel) "Listen, Jay, Conan and I have children—all you have to take care of is cars. I mean, we have lives to lead here. You've got $800 million, for God's sakes—leave our shows alone."
    @ the 10@10 segment of the Jay Leno Show

    wow..talk about in your Face Jay...I mean.. In your Chin Jay!!

    Hahahah that was hilarious last night.. Kimmel on Leno.. "leave our shows alone"..

    The other night was funny too, Jimmy Kimmel spoofing Leno on his show, wearing that gray wig & prosthetic chin.. Cleto acting as Kevin Eubanks... And guest Chevy Chase as Conan O'Brien but too bad that wasn't even close..hahah

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I used to like The Tonight Show with Leno like mag-atang gyud every night.. So enjoyed the "Headlines" & "Jay Walking" segments. Pero kining new "experimental" show niya karon, aside from it's aired too early, bati naman pod kornyhan na ko.. murag wa na ko kasabot sa format... So NBC, just leave Conan alone in his current timeslot & let FOX take a chance on Leno para naa pod silay ilahang kaugalingong late night talk show...
