NBC In case you're listening:

Every press release should start with "People of Earth".

Am I the only one that doesn't hate Leno?

I love Conan but no way in hell do I stay up that late just to watch a stupid show.

While I don't find Leno particularly gifted as a comedian, I certainly don't hate him.

I'm actually a little surprised this many people still give a damn about NBC programming.

I fucking hate him and hope he gets hit by a fucking bus on his way back to 11:35pm.

I actually prefer Ferguson nowadays but Conan\Leno\Letterman all have their strong points.

I do, I have a financial interest in it. We own NBC and if NBC tanks so does our stock price.

Conan

That is a stand-up statement.

I respect his conviction and hope it works out for him.

I get my NBC fix via USA and SyFy.

Agreed. He left the Tonight Show - leave both the show and the slot to it's current host. If Leno's 10 o'clock experiment failed, he should just leave.

All the affiliates care about is ratings. They didn't like the Leno situation because his ratings sucked. Giving up 10pm to CBS and ABC isn't going to improve their ratings. Ultimately what the affiliates want is for NBC to produce shows people watch. This is something NBC has struggled with since "Friends" and "Seinfeld" went off the air.
