Looks like Leno is going back to his old time slot and Conan may be leaving NBC all together.

If true, that's good news.

Sucks for Conan cause he worked his life to get that shot. But he just couldn't draw the crowd.

Will Leno bring the numbers back though?

Both are bad ideas. Leno has officially run out of material and he kills off any audience Conan might get via the news. It was a shitty set up to begin with.

Booooooo that's messed up!!!! Conan is waaaaay better than Leno.

As long as they don't mess with Jimmy Fallon I'll be alright with what goes down.

I predict yes.

ETA: I'm not even a Leno fan.

Really sucks for Conan. I like him way better than Leno but we all knew this was coming.

As we have said all along, Jay's show has performed exactly as we anticipated on the network.


and....lol

You anticipated his show being beat by cable shows like Spongebob?

Of all of the current late night hosts, I thoroughly enjoy Jimmy Kimmel. I think his monologues are very good.

Ferguson? Really? He is incredibly boring.

I would rank them:
Conan
Kimmel
<gap to seperate good from poor>
Leno
Letterman
Ferguson
<gap to seperate poor from god awful>
Fallon
Carson

Agreed, he has adapted the best to technology and all of the funny stuff on sites like YouTube as well.

Everybody involved with the original decision should be fired.

There was simply no way Conan would fit at the earlier hour.

Sucks to be Conan although I am sure he will be compensated big time.

That article states they may go with a half hour of Jay then Conan for an hour. This sounds terrible.

They should just go back to jay in his old boring slot and cut ties with Conan. Not sure where Conan ends up since his ratings were so bad, he put Dave back on top.

Would be great if Jay continued to flop even back in his own time slot.

Nice job NBC. Kudos.

I would be really upset if NBC chooses to keep Leno, Fallon, and Daly to dump Conan.

Leno sucks.
The only thing he does that is entertaining is the jaywalking skit.

There was a rumor earlier about Conan going to Fox for a late night show. I just hope that ABC doesn't try to take either Jay or Conan and dump Kimmel.

Yup and this seems to be the only option.

Conan is the only person I will try to catch on late night TV.

I know. Conan is funny. Leno, Fallon, and Daly are trash and should never have a camera on either one of them. Sucks Conan might have to go because of these boring turds.

I find him incredibly funny. Although some people think his monoloques are just okay, his improv stuff is really funny. His interviews are great pretty much because there isn't much substance in them, in a good way. While most shows have well known actors trying to hype up a movie, Craig brings on all types of guests that spend little to no time talking about their movies and they prety much just come to joke around.

nbc should let jay go to abc and take over kimmels show. pulling the plug on conan less than year into his show is bullshite.

Jay, Conan, Fallon, Daly = Best Late Night lineup ever!!!
