Letterman Tops Leno ... For Good or For Now?

I wonder what the odds are that Leno will still be in the Tonight Show chair 1 year from now?

The problem is that NBC has screwed themselves because their is no heir apparent anymore. Jimmy Fallon is actually pretty good, but certainly not ready to move up any time soon.

It makes you wonder what the NBC execs could really say if they had the guts. They would probably say this was one of the biggest f*ck-ups of the last decade. But, of course, we'll never hear that publicly.

he is probably still getting higher ratings then Conan was getting

This is what NBC gets for making ANOTHER wrong decision. I won't put too much blame for Leno for what happened to Conan. Some EXTREMELY smart executive at NBC thought trying to keep Leno was worth the future of late night. This short-term thinking was what led to NBC's fall from grace the past 10 years.

I don't like neither of them. But Leno deserves this.

If Letterman beats Leno for good... Well, that would be very very good.

Leno is a f***ing thief who doesn't deserves my respect. You don't breach an agreement that has been made 5 years before.

I have always like Jay Leno better than David Letterman. I don't think Letterman is funny, but I will sometimes watch David Letterman if he has a guest that I like.
Beating Leno once doesn't mean he'll do it all the time.

As they say - could not have happened to a better person. Works both ways.
