    So over this whole late night show mess.

    At this point, who cares?!

  2. LolaBella says:

    I can’t wait for all of the inappropriate things a slightly inebriated Ricky Gervais will say on Sunday!

  3. Goddess711 says:

    hehe – that was FUNNY! Leno walked into that, what was he expecting? I can tell he’s not a guy who can take a joke when it’s aimed at him.
    I’m wondering who else will come out with some honesty for Leno?

  4. Dorothy says:

    OMG How funny was that clip??? Jay was sooooo uncomfortable!

  5. mouth.like.a.sailor says:

    holy crap, he actually REALLY stuck it to him!! that’s pretty crazy, i wasn’t planning on that when i clicked on it to watch it, i thought it would be a friendly little busting of the chops, but hell no! that was crazy!

    i think jay handles it pretty ok, it’s hard to tell if he was actually getting pissed off or not. i’m going to lean towards pretty pissed off, but he had to have seen it coming 🙂

  6. Kaboom says:

    I guess Leno felt like he’d been manicured by a wood chipper after that one. Kudos Jimmy, that was cohonicious!

  7. Maddie says:

    Can some one explain how this is all Jay Leno’s doing, maybe it’s just me but I place all the blame on NBC.

    I don’t watch any of them Leno, Letterman, or O’Brian so I really don’t care but, place the blame where it really should be on NBC and their clueless department.

  8. Uzi says:

    I’m a big Kimmel fan, and feel he doesn’t get the credit he deserves for doing a great job on late night TV. So this was a blast for me to watch, along with his “faux Leno” monologue a few nights ago. I can’t figure out whether or not Jay was “in on the joke” though…

  9. juiceinla says:

    Kimmel’s cred from the Man Show days made me avoid him for years, but this- as long as it was not scripted by Leno-makes me adore him.

    GOD GOD DOG GAWD I HOPE IT WASN’T SCRIPTED BY LENO. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET ME GET WHAT I WANT!

    The “we have children, you have cars” stuff was brutal.

    I also liked the “fxxxing Matt Damon” stuff too. So Kimmel is ok.

    Lolabelle- Good EYE, I cant wait for Gervais’ comments too!

  10. juiceinla says:

    Maddie: Its pretty well known that Jay Leno is a manipulative backstabber-all the way back to the days he stole the Tonight Show from Letterman.

    Leno -at least according to my uncle of some former comedic notoriety- is universally loathed by his colleagues for begin conniving, stealing gigs, jobs, guests, backstabbing. Always with a smile on his face and that fake “aw shucks, I’m a simple guy” attitude.

    There really isn’t any doubt that Leno instigated these changes. But lets suppose he didn’t. What kind of asphole takes another man’s job out from under him, especially when the aspholes current television show is part of the reason the other guy was struggling?

  11. Atticus says:

    @Maddie – email sounds harsh so prefacing this with not meaning to sound harsh…but how can anyone NOT think this is Leno’s doing? Conan immediately was out there saying, I’m not going to 12 AM because that’s going to screw Jimmy over. So let’s say this really was NBC’s fault. Leno should be saying, no way am I taking back the 11:30 slot or the Tonight Show, that would totally screw Conan over. If Leno was a stand up guy, he’d be all over the place saying he was retiring and making sure in no way did it look exactly the way it looks now – he retired willingly, changed his mind and got a primetime show, it sucked, and so now he wants his old job back.

    Call a grape a grape (I know the real saying but hear it’s politically incorrect these days). If Leno had any integrity whatsoever, he’d quietly bow out when his 10 PM show gets cancelled and there wouldn’t be this mess to begin with. (better yet, he would have just left TV altogether when he left the Tonight Show)

    PS: Kimmel is my hero for that, that was awesome

  12. lisa says:

    I have to say THANK YOU JIMMY.. I could not say that to Jay and he said everything I wanted to say. Jay is a douche.. and I will NEVER watch his show again (unless Brad/Angie are on)

    But seriously. I am just disappointed. Jay’s show ended. Enough said.. Jay had his time. Should have left with some honor..
    Did you guys hear what Rosie O said.. man she upped the kick Jay’s ass big time..

    according to her.. Jay backstabbed her too.

    Now NBC is calling Conan a failure.. Well what was the Jay experiment? a success :/

  13. Shay says:

    It kind of annoyed me when Leno’s first show after the announcement he made the “NBC only cancels you when you’re number 1″joke. It’s saying two things: He was better than Conan because he was number one, and that he was canceled. Maybe he was number one but his show wasn’t canceled. He retired and the Tonight Show lived on without him. The Tonight Show doesn’t belong to Leno.

    Jimmy is known for pushing the edge so I don’t know why Leno decided to do this. Leno seemed uncomfortable and the audience didn’t know if it was ok to laugh.

  14. Lay-Low says:

    BOYCOTT LENO!

  15. WTF?!? says:

    Heh heh heh.

  16. Sigh. says:

    Did NO ONE tell Leno that Kimmel has already spoken out against him, or is he just that self-involved that he thought no one would speak against him to his face — AND ON HIS OWN SHOW?

    From what I’ve seen, Leno is getting all of the blame because he’s the one who started this shake up to begin with by leaving The Tonight Show to go do the same thing an hour earlier, but with much less humor/success. And it’s NOT because of the time he comes on or how long he stays on.

  17. Goddess711 says:

    Hhahahaha – Conan put the Tonight Show up on Craigslist!

  18. Judy says:

    Leno is better then Jimmy or Dave and Jimmy is far from funny just a bitter fat man who is not as big as Leno and is jealous and so it Letterman..he couldnt get the tonight show so let him run his mouth, better yet why doesnt he go screw aroun d on his wife again?? That is how funny he us. Letterman and Jimmy make me sick

  19. singerinwhite says:

    Looking at body language – and the way Leno was going, “Yeah, yeah, yeah,” repeatedly and looking down to the floor with a forced smile, I desperately want to say that the clip was something that was utterly unscripted.

    But I also desperately want it to be unscripted, because what Kimmel just did was BEYOND epic! 😀

  20. Judy says:

    Different Judy–like Kimmel but thought he was brutal.

  21. Colleen says:

    I can’t even figure out why Kimmel has a show, he always reminded me of the nasty little fat boy who never had anything good to say about anyone, especially if they were better than him. The fact he acted so nasty on Jays show indicates his moral character.
    Lets face it, Conan sucked as the TS host, his ratings were half of what Jays were, and people like me, who think Conan is just too crude for that time slot, left for Letterman. And, of course Letterman takes Conan’s side because he is CRUSHING Conan in the ratings and doesn’t want to go back to losing to Jay.
    I will be back to watching the new TS with Leno as soon as it starts. Have never watched Kimmel and his nasty, spoiled brat persona will keep it that way for me.

  22. bo says:

    I think Lady G takes showing up seriously. She was urged to say she was too sick for one show, and I imagine it would be important to her to get well asap and not cancel any other appearances.

  23. GatsbyGal says:

    That was so the best thing ever. I love how Jay was trying to keep it lighthearted and kept laughing, even though it was so clear he wanted to tell Jimmy Kimmel to STFU. And Jimmy totally knew what was going through Jay’s head and kept right on stickin’ it to him…SO GREAT. <3

  24. Jazz says:

    God bless you Jimmy Kimmel!

  25. Popcorny says:

    Jay’s fault? -You betchya.
    He conspired for stolen goods, simple as that.
    He knowingly shanked someone he was supposedly friendly with.
    He also tried to connive the public, to lead them to believe he was “surprised” and “offended” by “NBC” and “their” decision(s). So, he’s untrustworthy, snakey, sleazy, selfish, manipulative, insecure, etc., -he’s a con and a liar.
    He had his fat paw in all of this from the start -including the long-ago 5 year handoff to Conan (another thing Jay would like the public think he was “surprised” by).

  26. Ana says:

    I am not very surprised Gaga showed up for Oprah. I mean, I would’ve tried to make my next show if I were her. I know I have been sick with 24 hour bugs. Just the other day I came home from work sick, spent my day off throwing up, then went back to work the next day. (I know I should have waited, but my boss requires a doctor’s note to miss work and I don’t have insurance.)
