1. I wish. Craig Ferguson is funnier than Leno, carrying O'Brien.

5. Craig deserves so much more - but would "success"
Spoil him.

Leno's earlier time slot might. This household lives for Craig.

6. Just got a NYT alert that O'Brien has declined the new slot (sorry if it's been posted already). nt

8. A couple of crazy Scotsmen/Irishmen:
Craig Ferguson and Billy Connolly.

Wouldn't that be a hoot???

9. THAT would be awesome. Someone who's actually funny to replace Leno
Conan IS funny, but Leno is not.

10. Might have been a good choice, at least in Leno's case.
Really, what was NBC thinking? Who could stand Jay Leno for that long? The guy seems to be really full of himself. So full, in fact, there's no room for anyone else.

O'Brien is OK, but at that time of night I'm tired and would rather not have to think a lot, so reruns of King of Queens, Seinfeld, Malcolm in the Middle, etc., are on locally, and that's what I usually watch. Something funny to hopefully end the day on a high note.

12. Leno should retire like he said he was going to do. Conan just said no to moving to 12:05PM.
