CoCo all the way!

 

 

The issue with leno is that he said he was going to retire and hand the reigns over to Conan http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/6d1caacad...04-announcement

 

He didn't live up to his promise. All he had to do was step aside, its not like he is hurting for money...

 

Conan earned the Tonight Show, and NBC decided that they wanted Leno more even though nobody cares about him anymore. You think NBC would of learned their lesson with the whole David Letterman thing, in face the biggest worry was that they were going to lose Conan,. It was a time for a change for Leno he could of done something entirely different, maybe pursue a show about his passion for his cars.

 

Lastly, when NBC decided to pull his 10 o'clock show, they would of violated his contract, thus he had no obligation to stay with NBC and could of retired or done whatever.

 

The funny part of all this is that tons of celeberties have stated they will not go on Leno's show, which makes me wonder how successful he will still be at a later time slot. I personally think he is going to fail worse than he did @ his earlier slot.

 

 

Conan is such a down to earth guy, if you watched his show last night you would of heard his final words. This is why I like the guy so much...

 

 

"Before we end this rodeo, a few things need to be said. There has been a lot of speculation in the press about what I legally can and can't say about NBC. To set the record straight, tonight I am allowed to say anything I want. And what I want to say is this: between my time at Saturday Night Live, The Late Night Show, and my brief run here on The Tonight Show, I have worked with NBC for over twenty years. Yes, we have our differences right now and yes, we're going to go our separate ways. But this company has been my home for most of my adult life. I am enormously proud of the work we have done together, and I want to thank NBC for making it all possible.

Walking away from The Tonight Show is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Making this choice has been enormously difficult. This is the best job in the world, I absolutely love doing it, and I have the best staff and crew in the history of the medium. But despite this sense of loss, I really feel this should be a happy moment. Every comedian dreams of hosting The Tonight Show and, for seven months, I got to. I did it my way, with people I love, and I do not regret a second. I've had more good fortune than anyone I know and if our next gig is doing a show in a 7-11 parking lot, we'll find a way to make it fun.

 

And finally, I have to say something to our fans. The massive outpouring of support and passion from so many people has been overwhelming. The rallies, the signs, all the goofy, outrageous creativity on the internet, and the fact that people have traveled long distances and camped out all night in the pouring rain to be in our audience, made a sad situation joyous and inspirational.

 

To all the people watching, I can never thank you enough for your kindness to me and I'll think about it for the rest of my life. All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere.

 

Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."
