I don't think too many octogenarians will be making the switch to Dave from Leno (god bless your mom) - but some in their 30s to 50s might. And some in the under 30s might watch less of either, until Big Red comes back. I think some of the media this week are low-balling Leno's likely late night ratings - I still expect him to get big numbers the first 2 weeks (more than his lead over Dave before he left) and then settle into a smaller lead over Dave than he used to have, perhaps with a few more ties and losses than he was used to. -- TV or Not TV ....
