NBC ready to screw over Conan

actually, if it led to Conan going to another network, it might be ok. I would actually love to see him go on a campaign of mean-spirited jabs at NBC on another network.

I'd love for Conan to go to another network. One that I don't watch would be best.

I'd be shocked if he didn't go to another network.

Did we time travel to the 50's where you can't just switch to a different channel at the push of a button?

Leave him alone. Rabbit ears have worked well for him for 60 years. Why change now?

Next Christmas, he is thinking about getting a remote.

No. He took over the Tonight Show and I changed the channel forever as have many viewers if NBC is even considering a change. If Conan is as good as everyone says his ratings would be killing all other shows and this thread would not exist.

Anyone else think Jimmy Fallon's show has gotten alot better.

Yep, definitely. As I said when it first started, these type of things take a lot of time to develop.

I haven't stayed up for it since August, but he did seem to be getting some momentum then.

I don't get all the hate for Leno. NBC is the one who botched this one up. They should have never given Leno the new show and just let him move to ABC and replace Kimmel. Obviously, they were scared that Leno and ABC would take over late night since he was beating Letterman routinely. Late night would be great with Letterman, Conan, and Leno all competing.

Now, it's just a mess.

Leno bores everyone to sleep before Conan can get on.

Because of what he is doing to Conan. That is the reason for the hate.

Leno could just as easily go someplace else, but he, along with NBC, are screwing Conan, who has been very loyal and awaited his time to be on at 10:30.

...maybe NBC should give you a shot at the Tonight Show?

Does anyone have rating numbers for Conan? Has it been that poor?

I've tried giving Fallon another chance the last fwe weeks. Still can't get into it. I think his monologues are terrible, and he still seems so uncomfortable.
