Jay Leno is a juggernaut, you can’t outwork him. On his days off, he’s working doing stand up. He’s like the terminator. He did the tonight show to perfection, that broad appeal safe comedy. Conan didn’t stand a chance with his tonight show “dream”. Jay probably pocketed an extra 100 million during the Conan transition. Great work guys.
When Jay agreed to *NBC's* request that he publicly say to Conan "the show's yours," how could he have known that in 5 years *NBC* would change their minds and start begging him to stay? And with regard to this alleged "F Kimmel" attitude on Jay's part: when Bill Maher asked Jay about Kimmel, he said "I'm a fan" and praised him for his performance as an Oscar host. If there's actual video somewhere of Jay Leno saying anything like "F Jimmy Kimmel" I'd like to see it.
Lovely episode! Including the congratulations-basket from Norm I think Robin Williams irish song to the NBC executives is the funniest bit from this period. ruclips.net/video/uEWV9ZV5qOA/видео.html
Lopez was terrible and his show was going to be canceled before Conan came to TBS late night. Lopez welcomed Conan to the network and had no issue about it until his show got cut. It's not the same situation in the slightest because Conan didn't want to take over Lopez Tonight, he just had a show before it.
All of these WAYL episodes are beyond fantastic and it’s a SIN that they’ve only been viewed as much as they have. Thank you for these!
You're too kind! Spread the word

The talk show phenomenon is something my kids can't even conceive of. It might as well be chariot racing to their generation.
Hassan, etc. are their version of talk radio!
@@JonValtandtheEvilRobots I mean Hassan is a talentless hack who is sponsord by his rich uncle. So I wouldn't include him.
It’s stunning how Jay Leno outfoxed you again.
He outfoxed you. You are a good company.
