Meet The New Jay Leno Show, Same As The Old Jay Leno Show - Page 2

Also, it is at this time I should point out that there has been no new hits on any of the networks at 10 PM for four years.
Look, I don't know about you, but in my house ten o'clock at night is a busy time. I have teenagers...they are busy taking showers, getting their homework finished, I'm probably cleaning up what is left of any supper dishes, people are trying to get laundry together to be washed for the next day...that or we've just got home from some sporting event and we're all too tired to mess with watching TV. Do people really have time to sit down and consistently watch television during prime-time any more? I find that it's only before or after prime-time that I have any time for television. About the only thing I bother with on network TV in prime-time any longer is House, and I normally only catch that on DVR.
Let's face it...after Johnny Carson left, there was really no longer any point in watching The Tonight Show. And besides, David Letterman is cooler.
Wait...since Jay is no longer going to be on late-night television, does this mean Dave has epic win?
