I’ll be the first to admit, I do prefer Letterman to Conan, when push comes to shove. Letterman’s monologues are much more fluid and natural. But Conan’s skits are usually pretty good. Though I’ll usually flip back and forth between the two, depending on guests. What does this have to do with anything?
Well, I just found out, Leno (retch) will be going on hiatus in february, and might not be coming back at all in his primetime, pre-news time slot. Yeah!
Everyone knows Leno’s show is terrible. Most of all, the local nbc affiliates, who’ve seen viewership of their 10pm news (or 11) drop off steadily with Leno leading in. No one watched him, so no one watched them. Simple.
So is that it? Leno’s done, right? Well…not so much. From TMZ:
…after the Olympics, Jay will take back his 11:30 PM time slot. What has not been decided — whether Jay’s show will be a half hour, followed by Conan, or whether Jay’s show will be an hour and NBC says sayonara to Mr. O’Brien.
What in the fuck? Dude’s gonna snatch the show back from Conan this soon? Where does Conan go, back to his old, late night timeslot? What’s all this mean for Jimmy Fallon, whose show has seen some pretty good numbers lately?
I know Conan’s numbers haven’t been great, but from what I understand, they haven’t been that bad either. I’m not gonna hide my disdain for Jay Leno here; fuck everything about this.

Wow. That is ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. Why would they give Leno a show when he doesn’t have the numbers to back it up anymore? Will Conan go back to New York? This all seems very poorly thought out on NBC’s part.

From what I understand, Leno has threatened nbc in the past that he will leave the network and use his name recognition to compete with them if he doesn’t get his way…

i’ve heard rumblins that conan will move networks cuz he is rightfully pissed. leno eats dicks.

Leno’s a jerk, and NBC screwed up again. First they lost Dave, now it will be Conan. I’d boycott that network entirely if it weren’t for 30 Rock…

I’m hoping Conan takes the opportunity to bail and moves to fox. What do they run now in that slot? TMZ?

From Best Week Ever: “Conan Prepared to Leave NBC”

I really liked Conan when he was low budget back in the day. He is better since Andy Roony is back but it isn’t the same
