And this all leads back to my question of why they want to stay in the
Leno business -- especially now. He's damaged goods, as is Conan and
the Tonight Show brand. Do they really think that putting Jay back
into the 11:35 slot is going to recoup all those viewers who have left
for other pastures? And what do they do if Leno's crappy ratings
continue into late night? Move Fallon up? Resurrect Johnny? (Though I
admit I'd love to see "The Tonight Show Starring Zombie Carson.")
