Now it’s play a game, or watch an old movie on DVD, or catch up on the email. No one needs to sit in front of any given broadcast now.

The man has incredible talent and a comedic gift that Letterman used to have and Leno could only wish he had.

Long live the American Scotsman!!!

If the numbers are larger at 10, but trending down, it makes sense for NBC to try and bolster that slot for ad revenue. If the numbers are trending up later, the actual number of viewers needs to be taken into account… if the numbers are still lower, then I can see moving Leno earlier to try and boost the numbers in prime time.

What I’m getting at is that percentages don’t mean a damn thing without the actual viewer numbers thrown in (and I’m not hunting for them right now).

Particularly in “shift” towns, it’s routine now for people to get up at 3 and 4 am to be at work by 6 or 7. Maybe not in California, of course….

Leno was much funnier when he wasn’t political, and when the writers were on strike.

And stop the “Jaywalkers”, I hate seeing such stupid people, makes me wonder what has happened to our schools and colleges!

And good for him and all others that are shallow enough to value money over moral principles. For society to value a political hack disguised as a late night comic and then pay him a “ton of money” to do it is immoral.

Go play in your cool garage Leno. It may be full of toys but and I suspect most like your kind you are an empty shell of a soul. Money helps in this life but character and integrity are a lot more valuable in the long run. A rich sellout of the hate America left is not something I care to watch.

I say we tax the TV junk food like Leno and Letterman… They want to tax everything else and its ok? Start going after these guys and you will see how fast they squeal like the pigs they are.

Music Television (MTV) is full of movies, commercials, etc EXCEPT music videos. As it used to be said, “Hey! Where’s the beef?”

Prime-Time shows used to havea variety of creativity at all levels. Now its just all Law and Order and CSI type shows.

I didn’t think it would be possible for comedy shows to be any lamer than Steve Urkel in the past. Lame Comedy shows should be an olympic sport!

Finally, reality shows that all got started with Survivor a few years ago? Get real! Who wants to ordinary americans get humilated on tv when enough of that happens in the workplace.

No wonder people don’t really deal with basic tv anymore. There’s much more to life than the boob tube.

Making fun of people must be funny to a lot of people until then are the ones being made fun of. We are suppose to be uplifting. Putting people down is not humor but just playground bully tactics, so I to go to bed early, it does nothing for my mind, so i read if i stay up late.

Nikki Finke said: Leno 2.0 may only cost $2M a week and result in 46 weeks of original shows, compared to the average $3 million per episode pricetag of scripted primetime dramas that air on average 22 original weekly episodes. But the real question is whether the 58-year-old can attract more eyeballs than just the 4.8 million he averages now on The Tonight Show — measly by primetime standards, especially in the advertiser-coveted 18-to-49 demographic. But Jeff Zucker will try to explain this away by repeating his mantra that he’s managing for margins instead of ratings in this lousy economy.

That sounds to me like basically, the risk vs reward is pretty much stacked in favor of success even without 18-49.

As far as political humor Bush deserves to be the butt of every joke. He spent the last 8 years destroying this country. Those of you that relate so well to Palin tells me a lot about you. Palin is the biggest joke to ever walk on a political stage. The networks wish she was out there every day because she is such easy material, what a moron.

She being elected as the governor to anything is beyond me and tells me just what the people in Alaska must be like. It also saddens me to think there are so many folks in the lower 48 that are such hey seeds.

No wonder Rush and Hannity have have large followings. Leno’s humor is miles above their heads.

Can’t believe I misspelled “humorous.” Sorry, everybody. No, I’m not a Brit.

Add to that the political bashing by all, Conan’s nasty props, the sophomoric locker-room level of Letterman and his never-ending stupid top 10 lists, and the inevitable final segments by musical guests … I mean, really !!

Oh, and the rush-to-the-finish line cooking segments on the early morning shows together with the full blown regurgitation of the latest grim health topic press release … ugh.

Nothing fresh, innovative, humourous, or interesting across the board.

Did anyone notice when the writers ame off strike all the jokes were about sex. Two notes on this were they just jacking off all the time or are they all so lame they can’t get laid. I vote on both. Comedy is best left to comedians and the writers are not funny. They are just lame old farts who wish rhey were saying the crap they write but it still would not be funny. Hollywood sux…give me the old movies anytime over the crap they put out now. If we are lucky they are all bankrupt now thanks to PONZI.
