Conan Or Jay?

Recommended Posts

Conan ftw. I prefer him way over Jay Leno. NBC doing everything for Jay and screwing over Conan is bullshit. I'm glad he told NBC he wouldn't go back to his old timeslot. Basically what it comes down to is NBC started losing in the ratings race with CBS when they gave Jay his show at 9 and kinged Conan the Tonight Show host, and now they're trying to put it all the way back like it was without pissing everyone off (Conan), but there's just no way going about it without pissing off Conan... I totally understand why he's upset. I'd be too.

Don't really care, as I don't watch either.  But, Conan is getting screwed.  I wonder what his contract mentioned about the possibility of Leno going back to late night.  Leno is NBC's hot chick with huge tits.  They will give him anything.  I'm sure there was some clause in his contract that he could go back to late night.

Conan, the reason why Jay Lenos rating sucks is because of Jay. If anyone has listened to the howard stern show he explained it very well..

A lead in show is very important in the television biz. When Jay had control of the Tonight Show, he had (I believe) Law and Order which then followed to the news which then went to Jay Leno. Now its Jay Leno --> News ---> Conan

No body watches Jay Leno at 10pm when CSI Miami is on at 10pm or other shows that are on at that time which are way better. Majority people dont give a shit what they watch. They just want to watch a good TV show at 10pm! Then Watch the news!

No one is watching Jay Leno because of this which is hurting NBC OVERALL, no one is watching the news and no one is watching Conan.

Jay needs to leave he's a fucking annoying bastard that isn't funny..

Yah, totally agree. I guess he didn't want his old timeslot, because they would have been booting Jimmy Fallon. Conan is the man, I hope he moves on to bigger and better things somehow. (even though NBC is like top of the pyramid)

They were going to move Fallon all the way to early in the morning after Conan... It's ridiculous. Unfortunately, NBC doesn't know what the hell they're doing right now.

EDIT: Honestly, I think Jay should just retire and NBC let things smooth out with Conan being at 10 and Fallon at 11... People will come around eventually.

I think NBC royally screwed themselves. Jay had top ratings in his original spot, and through the brilliant logic of NBC, they decided to move him. Now he has poor ratings. Jay's demographics more properly suited him at his original spot. Now, NBC is trying to fix its own mess by moving Jay back and bumping Conan. I think its more of the time slots success than the individual person hosting it. I use to hate Conan and loved Jay when Jay did the Tonight Show. But now I like Conan on the Tonight Show. Tonight Show just has good writers.

I don't really care what happens to who. Its neither Conan's or Jay's fault, its purely NBC being complete idiots and treating their talent like dirt. I think both Conan and Jay should ditch the network for someone else personally.

Love the Conan...I just haven't found Leno to be funny over the last 9 years or so..he needs to retire(Letterman too), and go buy himself an island to drive all those cars around on. My only hitch is that Conans later show was better because it had the slightly more ah.."crude" skits, many of which I enjoyed lol.

I found it funny the other day I saw a clip of Leno saying that if the ratings fail, its the networks job to take you off the air.... Wasn't he the one with the falling ratings? Honestly, I personally wouldn't mind Conan going back to his old time slot, but thats because I could usually watch his show then :P All in all, I'm with Conan, always liked him better and hopes he gets a gig somewhere else cause he's great.

Did anyone watch the latest (and 2nd to last) Conan? He had Pee-Wee and Ben Stiller and Robin Williams and Barry Manilow...and probably a few more that I missed while I was out of the room.

Great show, and I love his skits and how he is trying to get as much awesome television on air as he can in the last 2 shows...
