Who cares if I've met him or not? I didn't like or watch Jay's Tonight Show before Conan, either.

Several of my family members have met Leno and say he is a very nice guy who is passionate about the Burbank community. But, his show sucks.

He just really needs to do a car show.

There's a reason you guys should now watch Dave and never watch Jay again.

Dave was cheering for us.

It's nice to see Leno back on The Tonight Show where he belongs. Loved the opening night.

Can't stand Letterman. Like Fallon once in a while and Kimmel as well.

Fortunately I have satellite and DVR so it's not really late night at all.

i have never liked David Letterman until this moment

seems to be a common refrain though, i've met a lot of Americans who like O Canada better than the Star Spangled Banner. kinda strange too because the American national anthem is no slouch

http://www.lvrj.com/living/plenty-of...-85760312.html here's an article on why not to watch Leno , for those of us in Conan's corner

Quote:
"If you've ever taken a risk, don't watch "The Tonight Show." Sure, some of Conan's bits struck out, but that tends to happen when you swing for the fences. Leno, meanwhile, has been content slapping out singles for years, and you just know he'd still be making fun of Monica Lewinsky and O.J. if he thought he could get away with it."

It was the same Leno we've come to know. Always takes the safe, bland joke. aka He's not funny at all.

Funny enough for me. I am glad he is back. I don't find Conan's humor funny at all.

Quite the article. Leno shojuld retire because he doesn't need money. Will someone think of the unemployed...

And lets forget about the backstab that took Leno out of his top rated show. Yup, if you've been fired you should never watch Leno. Support the poor Conan that's living off food stamps.

Maybe that's why I enjoy Leno. I am not out there looking for people to hate etc, I just enjoy what I have and blame myself for what I don't have.

And for the record, I've probably paid more to that fund than you have earned in your what I suspect very short life.

I'm looking to hate people? Surely you know I was kidding.

Oh, not you again...

I get it. You represent the overwhelming majority of out of touch people (mostly older, but not all) that embrace the unbold and mediocre.

Steve Staois is a Flame. Nothing makes sense anymore.

Well, you can always count on Leno being lame. That will always make sense.

Precisely, I am the out of touch dumb old fart, probably in your parents' age group. Just remember that next time your allowance runs out and you need those old dummies to bail you out so you pay for your overdue twitter account.
