Jay made a move, gambled and lost. He shoud bow out gracefully. Conan took the reins, and to ask for them back is tacky. The network tried to save money, and they lost as well. I say return the 10pm line up, and put good shows back on (like Pushing Daisies and Eli Stone, Dirty Sexy Money..... not sure if those were NBC or not, but they were way better than Jay's new show) I've nothing against Jay, and always liked him well enough, but I think if he returns to 11:35 it will just damage his image. and reputation. It's not like he needs the money. haha I agree with Rachel. Jay made a move, gambled and lost. He shoud bow out gracefully. Conan took the reins, and to ask for them back is tacky.

Perhaps I'm reading too closely, but this implies it'll still be called <i>The Jay Leno Show</i>, meaning that Conan, per his contract, will still host <i>The Tonight Show</i>. It's just a shame that NBC is messing with an iconic program that's been around since 1954.
