Aren't all of Leno's viewers going to die soon though anyways?

The problem with Leno's viewers are that half of them fell asleep during the news and the TV is just on.

I don't know why I want Leno to fail so badly (other than he sucks). It just depresses me that his formula is seemingly successful.

In other news, old people don't like change!

I just can't watch Leno anymore. I've never found him hilarious, but I always liked him growing up and totally prefered him to Letterman. But ever since this whole Conan thing, I just can't watch him anymore. I thought his Oprah appearance would help clarify things for me, as I always believed that as much of a ruthless workaholic he is, he always seemed like a genuinely nice guy. But after seeing him on her show, I think it actually villainized him more. He just came off sounding like a total dick. He definitely lost at least one fan through this whole fiasco.

That pretty much sums up my feelings too. Never really minded him, totally hate Letterman though. But now that's all moot because I've found the awesomeness that is Craig Ferguson and watch him every night

This might be the best Twitter account in existence - and certainly the best with less than 100 followers:

Anyone watch Leno tonight? I normally don't, but they had almost all the Chicago Blackhawks in the audience, with their jerseys on.

Part way through the monologue, A light starts flashing in Jay's face, so he starts squinting around to find out what it is.

Patrick Kane stands up and says "Over here Jay, yeah sorry, I think it's coming from the silver medal I won at the Olympics" *Crowd cheers*

Leno looks like he's about to go back to his monolgue, and then Jonathon Toews stands up and says "Hey, hang on there Jay, I'm pretty sure the glare's coming from these three Canada gold medals over here" *Seabrook and Keith stand up beside Toews*.

We don't get TBS in Calgary anymore, Peachtree split off and now we get the local station instead of the Superstation

If it's popular enough, one of the networks might pick it up in Canada...

Off topic, but did we ever get a reason this happened?
