Classic! Great article... way to keep it real, Kimmel! Leno announced his retirement in 2004, said he was leaving when his contract was up in 2009 and he was passing the torch to Conan. Then Leno went back on his word when his contract was up, he changed his mind about retiring, he gave the show to Conan but then almost immediately takes it away when his 10pm slot tanks. Bottomline, Leno had the Tonight Show for 17 years, he needs to honor his word and move on. He doesnt need to retire, but he needs to leave the talk show circuit. What I want to know is what does Leno have on NBC execs to make them jump thru hoops for him??? He is talented, but not that talented!

Jimmy kinda came across as an ass here. Maybe that's how he is on his show (never watched it). But he certainly doesn't help Conan's cause. If anything it confirms the view that Conan (and his friends) are jerks.

Guess who's interviewing to replace that schlub Conan? What better place to float the idea?
