I know I'm in the minority here, but I've always loved Leno.
When he retired last time, I convinced my 6 month preggo wife to fly down to LA so we could see him live before he left. When the show was over, she used her pregnancy to get on stage and meet him. We had a meet and great, got our pics taken and he was genuinely nice and asked more questions than he answered. He's always been one of the top 5 people I wanted to meet in person and it was an awesome experience.

Since having kids, I really haven't watched tons of his show, but when I do catch it, I still love it. It'll be odd not having him on anymore.
