NBC fired Conan O’Brien as host of the Tonight Show because he couldn’t beat David Letterman, something Jay Leno had done for years. So NBC made a tough choice, and even though they would lose hundreds of millions of dollars, they decided to bring Leno back so he could be number 1 in late night again! And the plan worked! For 6 days!
For the first time since Jay Leon returned to 11:30, The Tonight Show trailed Late Show in the early metered market numbers (3.5 rating for Letterman versus 3.2 for Leno). In the 25 markets with local People Meters Leno held a slim edge with adults 18-49, but he did yesterday as well and when the numbers for the broader national market were factored in, Late Show wound up leading Tonight Show in the 18-49 demo, too.
This is no surprise of course, because it’s NBC. Their own website (click the “shows” tab) is filled with such sadness and failure, it’s almost like they’re being sarcastic. They have 12 “Classic Shows”, and two of those aired on CBS. Every single show on their “Recent Favorites” was canceled almost instantly, and I never even heard of 4 of them.
There are only two qualifications to be on a list called “Current Shows”. Be “current”, and a “show” a viewer could watch. NBC lists the Olympics twice and the Golden Globes, which are neither. I don’t mean to brag but I think I could do a better job at running NBC than the people they have now. I at least understand where I am in time, which is more than they could say.

Like I said in the LiLo post: Right in the pooper!
All these posts and not one titty at least show Leno’s tits! Mother Fuck this day is shitty.
Jay Leon sounds like a name one of these new & upcoming “rappers” should adopt.
Except it would just be J-Leon.
Jessica, are you into feltching?
I just bet my balls . . . and shook on it.
I like J. I look forward each night for his show to start at 11:30 at night……..he puts me to sleep………….
Rokan did you say BALLS?
I don’t want Leno to be the last thing I see before I fall asleep.
I’ll have chin implant nightmares.
I’ll stick to Adult Swim.
Rokan is shaking Ballsy Balls?
Pepper your avi makes me feel sorry for that goat. :(
Barbarella: I heard that bikini tops were optional in Disco Bay
s p i c
Barb….I have no idea what you are talking about..the goat never complained to me once…………
Woodsman… yes this is true.
Pepper… Ok, I’ll take your word for it.
Pepper, how is Zombie Jr. doing?
Hey corona and tits.
Ill take two of each.
SCUM, zombie jr is doing well. He left the hospital today. He sent me a turd package .
Barbarella,
To answer your earlier question, I believe that SCUM is holding feudal ownership of all Durden activities in the Greater Bay Area.
Its ok for you to take up residence there, but you’ll need to pay some sort of tax. He can take that as either liquor, or an occasional Rusty Trombone.
SCUM, Any preference?
Fuck Leno AND Letterman. Neither one of these guys is funny…However, if I had to choose between Letterman, Leno, or having my balls smashed with a hammer everyday, I suppse I’d go with Leno.
Watching Letterman makes me want to punt a football through the gap in his teeth. And that bald prick Paul Schaefer has an even more anoying voice than Leno!
Can’t wait till CoCo comes back on the air!!!
