So basically, NBC paid $200 million to complete fuck up their once #1 late night schedule and look like douche bags to the rest of the country, all in the name of ratings. As it turns out(surprise) they fucked that up too.

On one hand this gives me a lot of pleasure because I hate Leno. On the other, it gives me hope that his audience(primarily senior citizens) is finally dying off.

I'm sorry, i'm not close to "senior citizen" at 31 years old, but for me, Leno is 10x funnier than Conan.

Now, on topic what they did to Conan blew donkey balls.

Leno was "okay" before this whole ordeal but I can't stand that big chinned bastard after the way he handled the situation. I am glad his ratings are in the tank. He doesn't come close to touching Conan in the hilarity department, IMO.

I haven't watched any late night TV outside of Jimmy Kimmel for a few months now.

I don't mind watching Leno. However, he is anything but funny IMO. The only time i ever laugh at anything on his show is 'headlines' and that has nothing to do w/ him.
