re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
None of these late-night hosts are funny in the least. The skits are lame and each individual's schtick gets old very quickly. Conan over Leno? Ferguson over Kimmel? Screw 'em all. They all suck. If it were up to me I'd get rid of these types of programs all together and have a Tavis Smiley or Charlie Rose type format during the time-slot. No fuss, no muss.

Jay isn't going anywhere with numbers like his premiere turned in. I think the most we will see the ratings drop to will be 8-9M viewers, which is still very good for a relatively cheap show to produce. |

Time will tell once he faces some real counter-programming.

Well, next Monday Jay faces CSI: Miami and Castle. I think he's a lock to finish 3rd right there.

Wait-- you have never, EVER, watched a show on CBS?? I find that hard to believe.
I guess now I will be watching Medium.. |
re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
I have yet to watch CBS since they canceled Moonlight. Nothing this season is changing my mind either.
|
re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
Those are fantastic ratings. We'll see if they hold. Even if they dropped to the 10 million - 12 million range, it's still much higher than nearly anything NBC has on the air anyway.

re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
LOL, NBC is REALLY throwing Conan under the bus... just heard a commercial for Jay's new show, with the voice over slogan of "End your day with Jay" ... if I were Conan I'd be like "Ummmm..... hello?????"

re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
It was pretty good, although i never watch the music or interviews, unless it's some iconic actor/director.

re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
For god sakes people, it's only the first episode.

Not really. It's the first show after a three-month break from a show that he's been doing for 17 years. He essentially has the same crew, the same band, the same writers. The set has changed, but what we saw last night was Leno's "Tonight Show" with a different name.
and is precisely why I hope it fails. I thought this new show was going to be completely different.. He should of stayed in the regular timeslot, or just retired.. Its not that I hate Leno, its just not the right time slot for this. Especially 5 nights a week. |
re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
I didn't catch most of this (just a few minutes at the end) and I think they went the wrong angle by just rehashing The Tonight Show. Jay's a decent interviewer and I'd love to just basically see like a 5 minute opening bit (monologue sketch or otherwise) and then just devote the rest of the show to interviewing the two guests. It's a bit Tom Synder-esque but I think it would be a good way to distinguish the show.
|
re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
I don't know what people are looking for, as there really isn't anything new he can do. Yes, it is essentially the Tonight Show at 10:00 now, but that's all I was expecting.
Heck, I wish all the late night shows were on this time, cause I fall asleep by 11:30 anyway. Even though I have DVR, I never really watch them the next day. With all the crap on TV now, its something I enjoy at 10PM now. :) |

re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
I finally watched Monday's show. I thought it was The Tonight Show with a different set. Since so many of us have DVRs, it's exactly the same. You fast forward to a couple bits you want to see and ignore the rest. I wouldn't put it on a Season Pass, but I'd watch it here and there, just like before.
I agree though that it kinda screws Conan. Seriously, how many people want to watch an hour of Leno followed by a half hour of news, then another hour of basically the same thing? I think people will choose one or the other and unfortunately for Conan, Leno has years of devoted followers. |
re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
I watch Conan, Ferguson, Letterman, and sometimes Kimmel. Fallon isn't worth the time, and I'll give this a shot, but since I didn't watch the old Tonight Show, I doubt I'll end up watching this one, either.
I think NBC is spitting in Conan's face (especially given some of the ads), though I wonder what effect it would have had for Jay to head over to ABC? |
re: Jay Leno - Shows, Projects, and News
Man, I hear people laughing so hard at Jay's lame "jokes" it makes me wonder if they're being payed to make noise. :lol:
