A solution...

I was pissed off when I heard yesterday that NBC was going to move Leno back to his original time slot. What a load of crap.

They were wrong to keep him in the first place. And it is clear that NBC has pushed Conan to make his show more marketable to Leno followers, leaving those of us who love Conan for Conan a bit disappointed.

So here's my solution: leave Conan where he is and bump Leno up to the 8 PM (7 Central) time slot, when most of the old fogeys who like Leno's crap will be happy to watch while doing their nightly dialysis, and just before bedtime at 9:15.

I don't think it's fair to Conan (or really to Leno, for that matter) to expect them to come into their brand new time slots with huge ratings. They need time to build momentum. If NBC wants to drop one of the shows, get rid of Leno and take a chance on Conan.

Trust me on this one, people. Trust me.
