Situations are much different. Conan bombed and there was nothing there to suggest that he would double his viewership anytime soon. His ratings kept getting worse, not better.
Leno was no Johnny Carson, everyone knew it. Losing 10% of viewers was seen as success more than a failure.
And the "middle of the road" stuff you guys keep talking about is what matters to the majority of viewers. Younger audience may disagree, but they also think that Will Farrow is a good actor. Not much substance there.

I have no ideal who Will Farrow is. Although I don't really like Will Ferrell post Anchorman. So I guess we almost agree on something.
