I think my rave review of Conan O’Brien’s Tonight Show debut explained my love for Coco enough for you to understand my disappointment over NBC’s decision to replace him with a dinosaur devoid of humor.
NBC had a great late night pairing with Conan followed by the new Jimmy Fallon Show (it doesn’t get much better than The Roots), and I’m sorry to see them mess it up with such a huge step backwards.
In case you don’t know what I’m talking about, NBC has announced that it will move Jay Leno’s corpse of a show back into Conan’s timeslot and Conan released a statement declining their pathetic offer to keep his job in order to avoid ruining The Tonight Show or bumping Jimmy Fallon’s show back further.
I’ll still watch Jimmy at whatever time he ends up at, but before that I’ll follow Conan wherever he goes.

Hahaha you’re too funny, and I entirely agree with your assessment of the situation. Seriously, who was on crack over there and thought that was a good idea??
PS I just subscribed via email, after finally giving up on my poor overworked and under-appreciated google reader. Hopefully this method of keeping up with things will serve me better lol
Did you see the hilarious interview between Jay and Jimmy Kimmel? Kimmel gave him the business something fierce.
[...] Although O’Brien could have made an attempt to prove NBC’s breach of contract, it looks like he’s reached a deal to leave NBC. Either way, I’m proud to say that I’m with Coco… [...]
Wonderful, inspiring, honest, farewell he gave on the final show. Conan made many friends out of this fiasco and he’ll return to greater appreciation then ever before…
