I'm fairly certain Leno never actually wanted to leave and they tried forcing him out and ended up with that debacle of a situation. This is just how it seemed to me, I've got no evidence. Never cared for Letterman, seemed like he'd be a huge asshole when the cameras weren't on. Felt bad for Conan though.

I like Leno. He isnt al all time great but i do like him.

I feel like Jay Leno isnt responsible for the Conan debacle. That was NBC making bad decisions and Jay wanting to keep his job.

He's a bland comedian that would rather be liked than actually have something to say.

Leno taking back the Tonight Show was a blessing for Conan. It got him way more support from fans, he got his own show (with a lot more control) on TBS, and let's face it, NBC would have made Conan tone it down if he was on the Tonight Show, and he'd be lame just like Fallon, Colbert, etc.

Never really watched him.

Only late-night I watched was Craig Ferguson and pre-2005 David Letterman.

I thought Leno retired, but he was moved to a different time slot. It didnt work out so they moved him back to his old slot where Conan was currently at

^ Breakdown of what happened

Once Conan settled in at TBS he had a chat with Dave

Does anyone like Jay Leno?

Now? Who knows. Back when he was actually doing his show in his prime? Apparently, because it got better ratings than Letterman did for pretty much the entire time they were running against each other.

The usual assumption was that Letterman appealed to younger, more "hip" viewers, especially ones on the coasts, while Leno was more appealing to older viewers and the "Flyover States", but I think that was always more anecdotal than anything definitively proven.

It's a lot more complicated than that. Mostly, if you really want to point blame there, you should be pointing it at NBC. They kind of fucked Leno over, and most of what he did in response was self-preservation in the face of it, with Conan mostly getting fucked over by proxy.

If you really want to point to Leno being shitty and fucking people over deliberately, what you really want to be pointing at is the mess where he went out of his way to push Letterman out of the Tonight Show spot earlier. Though NBC has a share of the blame in that instance as well.

The real irony is that he took a ton of shit for the situation where he really shouldn't have, but also didn't take much shit at all in the situation where he should have. He basically got away with being a dick, and then 20 years later got demolished over something that really wasn't his fault.

I just passed a bowel movement that is funnier than Trevor Noah.

Leno was always terrible. He did unfunny stand up and was a doritos schill in all their commercials for a year or so. Then randomly got the tonight show. Unfunny and as a person seems boring and meh
