Just saw that Conan quit the tonight show and might be trying to escape his contract.

Yep. Conan says he will not host The Tonight Show at midnight because it's unfair to him and Jimmy Fallon that their shows are getting shafted because Leno's show was a failure.
 
NBC can screw up an empty lot.

They totally screwed up the Weather Channel since they took it over. Hard to get weather info when you need it now. Totally useless.
 
I've been a fan of Jay and Conan for a while so that really sucks. If they promised Conan the 11:30pm time slot he should get to keep it. I hope he gets a good offer from another network.

I'd like to see Andy, Conan, and Jay Tri-host a show together on another network, to say "F you" to NBC.
 
Quite honestly, to me the Tonight Show hasn't been worth spit since Johnny left. Also, I prefer Letterman to Leno anyway and don't care for Conan at all.
 
I'm just glad to have Conan off the air. It really ticked me off that they kicked Jay Leno off of the show for that tool in the first place. I find Conan anti-funny. I didn't like Leno a whole lot when he started on the Tonight Show, but at least I thought he was funny. He got funnier and better as the years went on.

I'm glad the experiment of putting Conan in the big chair was an utter disaster. It's exactly what NBC's executives deserved. On the plus side, I started watching David Letterman as soon as Jay was replaced and I found out I really liked that show. I would have never known that if Jay hadn't left. I'll probably watch Letterman a little more than Jay, but at least I have options now.
 
well i wont be watching Jay Leno at all, NBC is run by a bunch of morons.
 
I don't watch these too often , but when I do I like Letterman over them all. Never found Leno or Conan to be all that funny.

Jay had only been off for a few months, they just moved him to 10:00PM. It's pretty much the same show, same things like headlines and Jay walking.

agreed
 
I like Leno, especially the headlines and Jaywalking but he's no Carson. I never got into Letterman but don't know why not. Conan, no way.
