Anyone watch tonight's show? Conan's really not holding too much back on NBC or Leno...I would assume this is his last hoorah.

They played clips of Jimmy Kimmel on Leno this morning. Kimmel completely tour Leno a new hole.

Yeah, I don't understand NBC. I pretty much only watch NBC comedies so it is going to be pretty sad when I have to boycott the whole fucking network.

^Hahah, I saw that last night. Leno's obviously getting the ass end of the stick from everybody here, as I haven't really seen any guests mention the whole deal on Conan, but every single guest on Leno just gives him shit constantly about getting canceled.

Because they side with Conan in this debacle:
-Jay promised Conan The Tonight Show when he stepped down.
-Jay stepped down and gave Conan the show.
-Jay's new show, which was developed to cut the cost of expensive 10 pm dramas as well as keep the ratings Jay used to bring in, failed.
-NBC decided that they would put Jay starting at 11:35, effectively destroying the original Tonight Show format.
-Conan said he would have no part in that.
-Instead of being the bigger man, Jay decided to go with it. He doesn't need the money.
-NBC now lacking a Tonight Show host decided to give it back to Jay.
-Old Jay fans are pleased as punch; everyone else is pissed. The other late programming hosts are eating this up.
-Chalk up another point into the inevitable death of NBC.

Wow, over 18 years ago. I can't believe this is older than some of our members.

I remember it too, although I didn't care back then.
Kind of ironic what time does to one person and their interests.

So tired.
It's not often anything on SNL is worth watching lately, but this had me cracking up.
