Jay Leno

[Pam]

I haven't watched it since Monday - mainly because there has been baseball on both nights

Lucky for me, Grace, the Phillies have been finishing up right around 10:00, but you'd better believe that if we went to extra innings I would not be tuning in Jay.

I watched for a half hour on Monday and a half hour last night basically because I didn't care to see the second half of his guests (Kanye West on Monday and Miley Cyrus last night). It is the same show to me as The Tonight Show was with a little different set. I always liked to watch him but could never stay awake. I am looking forward to seeing Jay more often but, again, how long I watch depends on who is on.

Poor Jay and poor Conan. Wonder what will happen after the Olympics?

NBC on Sunday confirmed that its experiment in running a five nights per week talk show in primetime will end next month. The final episode of “The Jay Leno Show” will be Thursday, February 11th, before NBC begins its coverage of the Winter Olympics on February 12th.

Still to be determined is what the NBC lineup will look like after the Olympics. Leno has apparently agreed to go back to his old start time of 11:35 pm ET/PT, following late local news. If NBC programmers get their wishes, the new late night Leno show will be a half hour, followed by Conan O’Brien at five minutes past midnight. However, as noted by RBR-TVBR, contracts come into play and O’Brien apparently has the right to walk rather than accept the rescheduling. NBC Universal Television Entertainment Chairman Jeff Gaspin told critics in Los Angeles Sunday that talks with O’Brien were ongoing. The word on the street is that he’d already been talking to Fox about jumping there to do a late night show.

The rest of the NBC late night lineup would have Jimmy Fallon following O’Brien at 1:05 am. That would leave Carson Daly without his current slot at 1:35 am, but Gaspin insisted that Daly would stay with NBC in some capacity. Of course, if O’Brien jumps ship, it would likely be a Leno-Fallon-Daly lineup.

Jeff Gaspin, Chairman, NBC Universal Television Entertainment, said the network was going “back to basics” and would fill the 10 p.m. hour with new dramas — including a new version of “Law & Order” set in LA.

If I had a TV that would be good news.

It would be nice if NBC could come up with something other than Law and Order spinoffs.

NBC announced that they are hiring James Cameron to do a live action 3D, Imax show with Johnny Carson and Ed Mcmahon to replace JL.

THey will star as dead humans who go to earth and try to save the planet from Law and Order spinoffs in prime time.

The name of the new series is called Dead Air!
