If you haven't heard about the NBC late night shake-up, congratulations, you have a life. I, on the other hand, have become very wrapped up in all the fuss. Move the Tonight Show to 12:05? Are you nuts? Not only is that a terrible idea, it's completely insulting to Conan O'Brien and the Tonight Show legacy. I firmly believe that Conan has earned the Tonight Show and deserves to keep it and keep it where it is. Moving it is a terrible idea that would kill the franchise.
It's unfortunate that NBC and Jay Leno have destroyed the 10 p.m. slot, and yes, something should be done, but moving Jay back to 11:35 seems to be a gross overcorrection. What it really comes down to is money. If NBC drops Conan or Jay they have to pay big, and it's clear they don't want to. The pooch is screwed and the network is coming back for seconds. Get with the program NBC and fix your lineup, don't dissect it.
TV Guide dot com did a survey and an amazing 83% of those polled said they wanted Conan to stay on at 11:35. The torch has already been passed, and we have to move forward. I don't know what the network will do, but
I'm with Coco.
