Yeah, ok.

"Please, take my only good time for a time slot for late night tv on cable and put me up for risk of getting my show cancelled, Conan. Please."

Lopez Tonight on Wikipedia
Hours before Conan's Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour, O'Brien officially announced he had signed with TBS to create his own late-night talk show at 11:00 pm beginning in November 2010, thus pushing Lopez Tonight back to midnight. Conan was hesitant at first, saying he didn't want to do that to Lopez after what NBC had done to him, but Lopez himself called him and persuaded him to take the job. On the April 12 edition of Lopez Tonight, George addressed the situation by saying, "I was on Team Coco, now I'm on Team Loco!".

Non Wikipedia quote
"It was very important to Conan that he felt that he wasn’t doing to me what was done to him, and I said. 'Absolutely not. I’m not that type of person, and I completely welcome you and hope that we would do things together to promote each other’s show,' " Lopez said. "That’s something that doesn’t exist now — an integrated [effort], two guys that get along that have different approaches to comedy that are with the same network that want to do things together. If you look at, without naming hosts, there’s one guy that’s an island to himself, who has alienated everyone that he’s ever really contacted. That’s not me."

Does Leno even have like a definitive interview someone can post? I've seen the ones from Carson, Leterman, Arsenio, etc but I can't think ofone he's had where it was a topic of discussion

Always Hated Jay Leno, he was too corny for me and overrated as Ftuck. Conan is better, he can be Corny too but at least he admits it in his Sketches and Laughs at them with his Audience.

He's had a few....

1. His interview with Hugh Grant in '95 catapulted him past Letterman and started his streak at # 1. This was after Grant was arrested for "lewd conduct" with a tranny, in an era before TMZ and gossip sites. It was a huge deal at the time. Leno was the first place to hear from Hugh Grant. Before this interview, Letterman was in first place. It changed everything.



2. The Terminator announced his run for Governor on The Tonight Show.



3. Obama became the first sitting president to appear on a late night talk show.

Conan fanboys talk alot of trash but looking at Conans ratings for his new show none of you even watch it. Leno still the king haters gonna hate.
nah you can't even compare them. one is on free cable and the other one you have to pay for to watch. that's the only reason i stopped watching conan. i switched right over to kimmel just to avoid the other 2. people seem to forget that when leno's whiny ass got that show that came on before conan's, it was getting absolutely terrible ratings. more people were still watching conan's late show, but he was never going to grab that "older person" audience. same thing is going to happen to fallon.

Jimmy Kimmel has a big advantage having all the Hollywood/LA guests so close to him. No more sharing with Leno. Kimmel is friends with all these A-listers too. Taking vacations with them, throwing parties with them, and all that.

I don't know how successful Fallon will be taking the Tonight Show, but Kimmel has the best future in Late Night right now.

Damn nikkas grimey.

I gotta salute Jay for doing it for over 20 years. Wasnt much of a fan but its always cool seeing sendoffs for big time celebs.

Fallon is for the new generation of hipsters

After all the snake shyt he's pulled over the years i'm glad NBC are finally throwing him to the bushes, but knowing how shameless he is it's probably only a matter of time before he's cracking corny weather jokes on another network. :scusthov:
