Jay Leno Moves Back To Original 11:30PM Time Slot

Apparently, if Jay Leno were a sinking ship, then NBC would be the captain going down with him. The network tried movie the chinned one to the 10PM time slot, but it wasn’t working out.

Once vacated, the 11:30PM time slot was given to Conan O’Brien. Now that NBC is catering to Jay and moving him back to his original time slot, where does that leave Conan and his huge following?

Hopefully, if they’re smart, they’ll give the boot to Jimmy Fallon give his slot to Conan. Let’s hope that after they announced their decision, that they’re listening to the public and have no plans to oust Conan. His fans will follow him and Jay’s show will be left to go down with the ship.

What are your thoughts?

Update: After NBC has given Leno back his time slot, that leaves Conan out in the cold a bit. Sources say that if Conan doesn’t want to go on the air for a half hour, that he could make NBC pay out his contract, worth $80 million, and then relax on the beach some.

Either that, or he could take the time slot and not give Leno any competition and keep his NBC job. The third option would be to go to FOX and get paid $15 million a year, with NBC forking over another $5 million per year to makeup for his lost wages.
