I really hope these "exec" people get fired after the Comcast purchase. Damn their livelihoods, they obviously need to be in another field. Like in a drive thru window.
You know what? That's insulting to people who actually do work in a drive thru. At least those people are doing honest work. I take that back.

I was in the audience of today's show and it was AWESOME(my cheeks were sore from laughing/smiling for the first time in years).We gave Conan tons of love throughout the taping's.He made a couple of anti-NBC jokes even when the cameras weren't on.I was actually bumming out post-show,knowing that the man I just saw put on an amazing show might not be doing it for much longer.

I think that Kimmle got PO'ed, and started playing hardball the second that Jay declined to come on his show. After Jay dismissed him you could almost see Jimmy start taking off the gloves.

Why does Howard Stern hate Leno so much? It sounds intresting to know why Howard's reasons include- The Tonight Show stealing bits from him and hiring Stuttering John from Howard's show.He's been calling Jay out for his bullcrap for years.

Just to be fair, Howard claims he invented everything, including breathing while telling a joke.

Howard didn't like the jaywalking and that show "street smarts" being "stolen from him" (the "homeless game" on his show, if anyone remembers it, they did it with cyndi margolis on there once), and stealing john set him off again, and there's howard's appearance in the 90s on leno when he had two strippers with him, and leno walked off the show pouting

I just watched the video of Kimmel on Leno and I can't believe I ever hated Jimmy. Does anyone know what time his show is on? I mean I gained so much respect for him after watching that video. I think he said it best when he said the last thing about leaving the shows alone. I have no respect for Leno whatsoever and people are saying he's not the bad guy? I haven't seen him come out and publicly say that he doesn't want the switch and to screw conan over. As I said earlier, I hope Leno's rating go so far down that he becomes the biggest laughing stock of all of late night. He's selfish and deserves nothing but a foot up the ass from Red Foreman.

"People have short memories these days," said an industry insider clearly on Team Jay. "This will blow over."
Yeeeaaaahhhhh....ummmmmm.....about that.......yeah, I don't think this will blow over until the fanbase is satisfied, and THAT's not going to happen until Jay Leno fails most epically and is replaced by a test pattern, which would probably drawn better numbers than him at this rate, or NBC fires Zucker, OR NBC just goes under.
Any of those are victories for Conan, and for the fanbase that supports him.

"People have short memories these days," said Jerry Seinfeld/Kevin Smith/Kevin Eubanks/Jay's wife. "This will blow over." Fixed.

Jimmy Kimmel's burning of Leno was almost enough to redeem him in my eyes.
Nothing will ever do it after what he said at the Flavor Flav roast most likely, but again, this was close.

But see, people will have to be careful, or else Leno will become "poor Jay" who's just being picked on for what big bad NBC did.
Conan/Kimmell/Craig/Letterman can't go making him into a victim....they have to pace themselves. If they route and brutalize him too badly, people will get sympathetic towards that pelican faced backstabber, and rally round him.

One thing about Jay in all this, he was trying hard the first few days to look like a victim, and I think that hurt him badly. He was getting a good deal, but he was talking shit about NBC and how he was fired and all this. He wasn't fired, he was pretty much promoted and people knew it.
Had he just come out and said "hey stuff is going on, I don't like how it is happening but I plan to continue doing my job" he'd have way more public sympathy right now. As it stands many of his fans can't stand him right now.
