It will be a sad day with Jay Leno leaves NBC tonight show in 2010:
With Conan O'Brian taking over I feel the raiting will drop big big time!
He is different and is not even close to Jay's show or ways!
I know there will be only one Jay as it is with Jonny Carson but Jay is the best and with his street talk and other stuff with real people:
Just my two cents:

I can't stand to watch David Letterman because Paul Shaffer gets on my nerves. How in the heck did he get that job? He can't sing and most of the time, when he talks, he makes no sense.

Jay Leno is just going through the motions. NBC has give him his walking agenda and right, Conan O'Brian will not be a good replacement. Put Jimmy Kimmel in that slot. Very mature and good guests.

Jay Leno is just going through the motions now. NBC wants a change and his show is going down hill fast.He did fine when he did his own jokes during the strike. He is great at stand up. Put Jimmy Kimmel in that slot.

Did you just say Jimmy Kimmel is mature? Have you seen "Crank Yankers"?

Leno's the best. He gives the best show. I refuse to watch the other Jugheads. If Leno goes,I go! I do not like any of the others on the late night show.

Conan is the only one who isn't using exhausted formulaic humor aimed at geriatrics. He might not be 'cutting edge' but he is far ahead of his gray haired contemporaries.

When Jay does "Street Walking" it's hilarious and infomative to see how ignorant ppl really are about the simple facts of life. Most do not have a clue of the simple questions asked.
Jay all the way.

David Letterman will return on Dutch tv this month! I think he's a very funny guy, a little controversial too, love it.
Great respect to the man, he's doing this for how long?

I like the guy who does the soup and Chelsea Handler! She would be a great host for The Tonight Show.

John Stewart gets my vote. He gets a wide variety of guests and does good interviews.
