Former ITV exec (and Kimmel showrunner) Duncan Gray compares the NBC/ Leno move to ITV replacing "News at Ten" with "Coronation Street" and saying that those foreign TV systems who spend a lot of money on expensive late prime drama programming (domestic or imported) may very well reconsider it all if Leno at 10 works for NBC--a number of the commenters are not convinced:
