keep Leno, keep Conan. What do the other networks have? The “Conveyor Belt of Love”? What a pile of krap.
Jay is funny and I liked him at 11:30 and at 10. I’m not sure I agree with shortening his show to 30 minutes, but better than not airing it at all. What about Jay at 11:00-12 followed by Conan. I’m not a big Conan fan either, but the Jimmy Falon show isn’t very good.
Jay Leno is a first class guy and a great entertainer. When Conan took over the tonight show, I stopped watching late night TV. Jay is a classy guy who commands your respect. I cannot say that for Conan or Letterman.
Jay’s “new” show has progressively gone downhill. There are way too many awkward moments in some of his interviews with some bizarre guest choices. C’mon, Snooki doing 10 at 10? And she’s a repeat guest? That says how low they gone with him. ow about more music? What happened to the “pairings” of musical guests or maybe two songs instead of one? Now it’s become a “crash site”. You don’t want to look but you do just to see how bad it is. Keep Conan.
Jay needs to retire from the show like he said he would. Leave the time slots to more current talk-show hosts. Please…do something else now, Jay.
I like Leno at 10, Conan sucks. I won’t watch him no matter when he is on. He is worse than Letterman. Now Fallon has a really good show but too late for me to watch anymore. Switch Fallon and Conan
Leno is pathetic with no class. You were gone. You had your 18 year stretch and you did good in ratings. Why mess up Conan’s time. Some people just don’t want to go away.
I think that NBC should have a good drama and I don’t think it’s only Jay Leno’s fault. He wanted to go but they offered him a deal since it’s cheaper than producing drama. 10 time slot isn’t suitable for him and also his show needs more new guest stars and good writers.
Conan sometimes he’s funny sometimes he’s not but when you say that Letterman is better that’s crazy.He was going downhill until he slept with a staff member is this how you make ratings F. your staff and now you’re more popular, really.
I think the best one for me is Jimmy Fallon cause he’s funny and smart, good monologue, superb band and funny sketches like the women of the late night.
Conan is not funny. He acts like he is someone else and his stand up is awfull. Thats why Leno has to lead him in. Gotta keep Leno NBC cant stand conan
That has to be the funniest damn line I’ve EVER heard from a network PR flack: “As we have said all along, Jay’s show has performed exactly as we anticipated on the network.” Sooooo…they actually *intended* it to be a ratings black hole that would displace ailing older dramas as well as promising new ones that even so STILL outperform this new Leno show, which struggles to match repeats on basic cable?! “It has, however, presented some issues for our affiliates.” Yeah, like cratering their ratings in what’s already a down market. NBC is truly raising cluelessness to a fine art.
Howard Stern was right from the very beginning! Said this is exactly what would happen.
Jay Leno is not, and has never been, funny. Period.
NBC would have been way ahead if
they would have got rid of JAY leno
Every time i see him on tv, he
reminds me of one of his shows that
i have already seen about ten years
ago. Seeing him is like watching a
repeat of a repeat.
