Author Topic: Jay Leno Puts in His Notice. Conan O'Brien to Replace. Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-01-2004 04:38 PM                        Street Smarts is kind of fun, but that host is the most annoying guy on TV since Chuck Barris.  |  IP: Logged David Stambaugh Film God Posts: 4021 From: Eugene, Oregon Registered: Jan 2002 posted 10-01-2004 05:57 PM                        Letterman used to be the funniest thing on TV back in his NBC days. Now watching him just serves as a reminder we're both getting old and tired. Leno can be funny but he's never been in the same league as Letterman was in his glory days at NBC. I like Conan, but man, I don't know if he can carry that earlier timeslot. Conan was definitely better with Andy Richter.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-01-2004 09:07 PM                        Richter will have time to flop in a few more TV shows by 2009, so maybe he will come back and do the sidekick thing. "Tonight" would be a classier gig than "Late Night," for sure. (Wonder if Conan will bring Max Weinberg along for the ride?)  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 10-01-2004 09:10 PM                        I would hope so, as the Max Weinberg 7 is by far the best late night band around. The worst is (again, by far) Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra. They sound horrid, uncomposed, sloppy and all around bad. Kevin Eubanks and the Tonight Show Band is a bit better than Paul Shaffer, but not too much.  |  IP: Logged Bill Enos Film God Posts: 2081 From: Richmond, Virginia, USA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 10-02-2004 12:17 AM                     Conan O'brien and Paul Schaffer, There are double zeros is there ever were. Put'em on the same show and there would be NO talent or watchability at all. Then 100% of the entertainment would be from the guests which is the wzy it should be.  |  IP: Logged Pravin Ratnam Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 844 From: Atlanta, GA,USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 10-02-2004 01:52 AM                     Grumpy, grumpy. CONAN RULES! SMIGEL RULES! MAX RULES! The question is not if COnan deserves 11:30. Does the 11:30 bland time slot deserve the talent of Conan?  |  IP: Logged Paul Cassidy Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 549 From: Auckland, New Zealand Registered: Aug 2001 posted 10-07-2004 01:37 PM                        I was just watching our New season of "American Chopper" and they were doing a Bike ( Old School ) for Jay Leno , as usual they did not finish the Bike on this night , but I don't want to wait till next thurs to find out how they did ???? did Jay Leno like what they did  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

Of course, he said he liked it, though.  |  IP: Logged
