    Leave Jay with just a 30-minute show? That’s an insult if ever there was one.

  • Natalie M

    I can’t help but think that NBC is simply trying to stir up a ratings inducing scandal, something Letterman has been winning at this year.
    Nobody wants Leno anymore, and it was his idea to leave in the first place, just drop him and let CoCo soar!!!!!!!

  • S

    This was a terrible experiment from beginning to end. Leno is just not funny, and they are definitely screwing Conan O’Brien and Jimmy Fallon b/c they aren’t changing the shows, just the times, so they are probably still bound by contract. What crap.

  • Nick

    Is it too soon to say “I told you so”?

  • Define Interesting

    Oh god, oh god. We’re all gonna die.

  • HM

    I won’t watch Leno no matter what time his show airs. He’s boring. Leave Conan & Jimmy alone – let Leno move networks.

  • Alichat

    What a complete clusterf**k! I lost respect for Leno the moment he decided to do this 10pm crap, and I keep losing respect for Leno the longer this goes on.

  • Tony Paschal

    If they are screwing these guys because their affiliates they are wrong. The locals suck at the 6pm time slot and are twice as bad at 11.

  • Kristine

    Good. Maybe they’ll move Law & Order and SVU back to their normal time slots where they don’t get killed in ratings every week.

    • Marguerite

      I agree with you 100%

  • HIEC

    Who cares…

  • MG Schoenbeck

    I don’t believe that Jay should only be on for 1/2 hr and give Conan the 1 hrs time slot. It should definitely be the opposite. Conan should only have 1/2 hr and give Jay the full Hour. Don’t make another mistake. Jay is the bigger draw on late night. If you could develope another sitcom like Golden Girls for the 10:00 time slot!

    • CT

      You’re a complete moron, do you even take a look at the NBC ratings per show? Do you look how many viewers come alive the minute Conan is on? I mean seriously why give Jay, who obviously has lost his talent and the masses that once thought he was funny no longer do, his spot back.

  • T

    Can I have my SVU back at 10 pm on Tuesday nights, please? Thanks, management.

  • Loriann Zello

    Put Friday Night Lights back on NBC> That’s the best scripted program NBC has and they all but ignore it.

    • April

      I’m actually hoping they do put Friday Night Lights back on. I heard it was a pretty good show.

  • jared

    F*ck Jay Leno. O’Brien is so much funnier and if Jay had wanted to stay in his original slot at 11:30 he never should have left to begin with. I’d say – pay him his contract and let him go. His time has come and gone.

  • CHRIS SULLIVAN

    GIVE US A BREAK, THERE ARE TO MANY LATE NIGHT SHOWS, LENO IS THE BEST THERE IS.

    WHAT WE NEED IS A SHOW THAT IS CHALLENGING NOT ANOTHER HOSPITAL
    ONE.
    THERE ARE ACTORS AND COMEDIANS THAT HAVE IT, YOU DON’T HAVE TO LOOK FOR UNKNOWN’S.
