I just watched the Oprah interview with Jay Leno.

I honestly thought that my opinion, or understanding of the situation, would have changed after hearing Jay's side of things. But it didn't.

Jay had the nerve to say "I was offered my dream job back, so I took it back."

WTF! You "passed the torch" to Conan and his people. You were told 5IVE years in advance that THIS was coming. He says that he's a stand-up comedian with a TV show. If he loves stand-up so much, why isn't he pursuing a career away from TV and just doing stand-up? Instead he decided to go with what the executives at NBC wanted. Can't release you from your contract? Fine. RETIRE like you said you would 5 years ago!

Overall I think the interview didn't help Jay at all, in my eyes.

He's still a selfish prick that can't identify himself without a TV show.
