I find Leno more witty than funny most of the times. 15 years is a long time and he's become pretty predictable.

Conan is cool if you're into goofy/weird, but he does have his moments.

I'm curious to find out who's ratings are better? Leno on the Tonight Show, or Conan on the Tonight Show?

Nevermind Leno's "variety show" as it seems EXACTLY like when he was running the Tonight Show, just at a different time slot.

You may be the only person on earth who thinks Leno is witty.

blasting_speed · 01-13-2010, 04:50 PM

I never liked Jay Leno. He's one boring mother fucker.

Conan on the other hand always hilarious, always on it. Fuck Jay Leno.

ZX88 · 01-13-2010, 05:22 PM

jay Leno show really isnt funny at all.

Conan is/was a great host.

sw20>>s14 · 01-13-2010, 05:28 PM

conebone69 all the way!

Fun times!

I went to go see Conan in the summer and I saw Lisa Cudrow, Billy Mays and Anthony Sullivan, and Elvis Costello!!! Then Billy Mays died the next week! Crazy how I got to see him on Conan. haha. It was a great time.

D.Adams · 01-13-2010, 05:55 PM

this was funny as hellto watch Jimmy Kimmel making fun of Jay Lenno

Hulu - Jimmy Kimmel Live: Tue, Jan 12, 2010 - Watch the full episode now.

Even though I'd watch Leno over Letterman, Conan was funnier than both put together.
I used to hate waiting for Leno to finish up before I could catch Conan.
His "In The Year 2000" skits with celebrities which he updated for the new show to "In The Year 3000" are pure gold! lol

oh and they should bring back Preparation H Raymond. haha...

Conan Hands down. With respect to Leno, he should have just retired when Conan took the reins of the Tonight show simple as that.

And, I bet Leno wouldn't want to come down with a ragin' case of Duchovny! LOL

**ThatGuy** · 01-13-2010, 06:29 PM

I prefer Jay's style of comedy over Conan's.

I don't like the skits Conan does, and his "sidekick" is a fat, pale, annoying fuck. Conan would do well to ditch him and not look back.

With that all being said, I think Jay would do well retiring from late night and moving to Speed to run his own Car Show. Conan can take late night and run with it, I'm just not interested in watching.

*ManoNegra* · 01-13-2010, 06:57 PM

I don't mind Jay Leno but
if I have to choose it's Conan hands down
JImmy Kimmel is not bad either (been a 'fan' or sorts since the KROQ days)
too bad my current job doesn't allow me to stay up late to watch talk shows anymore

oh and btw, Falon and Letterman suck ass.

***S14DB*** · 01-13-2010, 07:34 PM

Dump Failin and put Leno on then. Should only take Conan another 5years to be funny again...

yeah dude! i used to listen to the kevin and bean morning show with kimmel on there, back in middle school. i actually think i still have their 'christmas time in the LBC' cassette tape somewhere. lol

dahveed · 01-14-2010, 01:24 AM

Ron Howard's daughter is hot.

She's on Conan right now, so its relevant lol.

SochBAT · 01-14-2010, 01:44 AM

When you said Ron Howard's daughter, I immediately thought Sophie Howard, because thats who I wanted to see.

Bryce Howard isn't bad. Not Sophie, but better than nothing.

He even did stupid things every night like see how long he could spin his ring on his desk; it was just so funny for some reason. When everyone else was running re-runs he was having new shows every night.

That was spring of 08. It was so fucking funny. I enjoy both Leno and Conan. But its Conans time now. I'm with CoCo

ViciousCesar! · 01-14-2010, 11:59 PM

anyone else just watch 'The jay leno show'? Leno did 'ten at ten' with jimmy kimmel and kimmel raped him on his own show. good shit.

yeah it was hillarious...but its too bad conan is really leaving.

Conan's Exit Confirmed - The Daily Beast

This artlce states that he is leaving and recieving a payout from NBC, the good part is that he is allowed to work for other networks.

Kimmel killed Leno on his own shop. Epic.

Bring Conan back...Fuck..

***CrimsonRockett*** · 01-15-2010, 08:34 AM

To be completely honest, I liked Conan better when he was on Late Night.

When he was on the Tonight Show, some of the jokes were extremely stale. Not even a "ha".

Hoping whatever network he ends up on, he goes back to the good stuff.

murda-c · 01-15-2010, 08:56 AM

I think i would watch jay lenos garage on sunday mornings on TNN.

Haha.

lost240soul · 01-15-2010, 09:12 AM

CONAN FTW seen a few of his shows and i was hooked..i think its pretty stupid of jay leno to take back something he gave to conan.. i give it like 2 or 3 months till jays show is canceled..sorry to say conan was wayyyyyyyyyyyy better

tricky_ab · 01-15-2010, 09:29 AM

I don't know where he's going to go from here. Leno got humiliated by a competitor on his own show last night, and couldn't even come up with a single witty retort, is an undeniable FACT.

Leno has been absolutely savaged over the last three days by Kimmel, Conan, Letterman, Rosie, and Stern. And the best counterpunch he could manage in response was "you're welcome for the ratings boost Conan." Some comedian.

Even if he can recover in the ratings because of clueless elderly Middle Americans, surely what little remaining respect he had among his colleagues must be slipping away.

Im a avid listener of Howard Stern and this guy HATES Leno with a passion. Leno and his writers have stolen many bits from the Stern show over the years and then Leno hired Stuttering John as a writer behind Stern's back.

He kept ranting and raving that Jay's show will fail for the longest time and that Conan will be shitted on by NBC. Well folks, he was right...lol. Now I gotta hear about this fisaco and how he was right for weeks now.

tricky_ab · 01-15-2010, 11:53 AM

Lets go over the facts...Shall we?

-2004, Conan's contract with NBC expires and he gets calls from other networks.
-NBC wanted to keep him so they asked Leno if he can have The Tonight Show in 2009.
-Leno agress, saying he doesn't want the same fiasco as last time. He himself, announces he will retire and past on the torch to Conan.

-2008, Leno changes his mind about retiring.
-NBC wanted to keep Leno as well so they offer him some shows, including a daytime show.
-Leno's a whiny little bitch who still wants to be relevant so he asks to be on Prime time.
-This completely undermines Conan's move since the guy that he's replacing is still going to be pre-ceding him.

-2009
-Conan moves his entire staff from New York to LA in order to fulfill his lifelong dreams.
-Leno is a hack so he can't come up with anything original so his "new" show is just a rehash of his old show.
-Leno's show pisses off Affiliates due to non-satisfactory ratings.

-2010
-NBC and Leno get together to bum fuck Conan and his staff by moving The Tonight Show to 12:05.
-Conan refuses to take part in the butchering of what he considers to be the most prestigious late show in television history.
-Everyone turns on Leno.
-Kimmel does an entire show as Leno and showing the world how unfunny Leno "shtick" really is.
-Kimmel then proceeds to go on Leno's show and tea-bag Leno in front of the whole world to see.

That about sums it up.

Seems like NBC just wants some ratings, so they are making this as public as possible.
