Are there really that many Leno fans left that NBC is pushing Conan out the door?

Are there really that many Leno fans left that NBC is pushing Conan out the door?
I heard that while the show's ratings were cut in half when Leno left, Conan retained the young, advertiser friendly viewers. When Leno's new show failed, they were left making the choice between fucking Conan in unprecedented fashion (Conan's 6 year wait/6 month tenure), or trying to get those old people back. A majority of Conan's staff switched coasts to stick with him, and they've been screwed by NBC too.
Otherwise, I'm glad that he's getting out of that slot, since Conan's appeal was always his goofy and/or tasteless bits, and he dropped most of those when he made the move. I hope wherever he lands, he brings that humor back.
conan is infinitely better then leno imo
i've never seen leno do anything to make me laugh
nbc just blew it bad, conan owned that 18-35 age range that everyone wants so bad. but they're saying to hell with that, we want the old bastards that don't buy anything and are just gonna die in a year or two anyways
i wonder how hulu and the likes affected conans rating. he has a big net following, i wonder how many of those people skip the regular show and catch it the next day online
good for o'brien. nbc sucks, they have two good shows in the office and 30 rock, and maybe one more in the community. other then that its a sinking ship. nbc will have to pay conan millions and let him go. he'll probably land on fox and make it a three way battle. leno sure as hell won't get good ratings when he has to go head to head with dave and conan

Actually that sums up my feelings on Conan. I don't think he's funny at all. I guess it was funny when he fell and hurt his head, but in a bad way.

Agreed. Conan is the man. One of his funniest skits is from a few years back where he participated in an old-time baseball game. Absolutely cracked me up.

Leno's setups for his jokes are generally so labored that the punch line is too predictable. I rarely laugh at him. I find his repetition, rambling and/or facial contortions or physical gyrations exhibited after delivering the punchline to be highly annoying.
Conan and Letterman both make me laugh occasionally because of their irreverent comments.
However, I don't find any of their programs to be very entertaining on a whole.

oh please, don't sell patler short
patler is older then the earth itself
it was the mighty patler that once roamed a barren world. one night after drinking 500 gallons of ale he felt the need to urinate
the grand cannon was born from this, and the mighty oceans were filled because of it.
life soon sprang up all over from the nutrients that he supplied that day

Hmmm, I've watched it three times and found it boring and tasteless. Maybe my rural white america upbringing prevents me from "getting" any humor out of most of his shtick. :?:

The 'expensive' bits have been funny - but clearly not as expensive as everyone thinks. Then ppl immediately say how can he spend 4.5 million on a horse in mink watching restricted superbowl coverage? He didn't.
Was that really the Derby winner - doubt it.
Was that really mink - or faux mink.
That program on TV may have been the '85 superbowl (bears) - but could have been nothing.
'Buying' a bugatti - right. It was rented or will be resold.
People get so uptight at Conan's stuff - which makes it even funnier.
Robin Williams was a little odd - but kinda funny. Love TiVO by the way.

Glad he knocked out the 'expensive bit' question last night. Puts all those dumbasses saying he's wasting money when he could've been helping Haiti.
Glad he left on a high note. Free Bird was well done and classy.
Team Coco on FOX countdown - 7 months.
yup, good ending
fox on september 1st almost seems like a slam dunk
he's a perfect fit for that network and they've been looking for a late night show for a long time
sucks he has to leave all the made up characters behind
