I'm sick of hearing about the Leno vs. Conan thing.
I'm supposedly in the minority, but I love Jay Leno. He's the only late night host I've ever watched with any degree of regularity. Still, I have nothing against Conan O'Brien, other than the fact that he doesn't do anything for me personally and I find him more annoying than funny. But just because someone doesn't appeal to me, doesn't mean I wish them off the airwaves.
There's no need to pit them against each other. They appeal to different audiences and there is plenty of room in this world for both of them. This is NBC's mess, not either of theirs.
I would be incredibly sad if Jay Leno were no longer on the air. I can't imagine not getting my weekly fix of "Headlines". And, even though I don't care for him, I think it would be a shame if Conan was no longer around as well, all because NBC screwed up.
I hope they both continue to host late night television shows. Clearly NBC cannot accommodate both of them, but that's the beauty of modern television: there are other channels. I don't really care which one stays on NBC and which one moves to another network, or even if they both move... as long as they both stay on TV somewhere so their respective audiences can still enjoy them. And, I'm certainly not going to boycott NBC entirely for making the "wrong" choice. That would be stupid. NBC isn't going to miss me, but there are a lot of shows on their network that I would miss. So who does a boycott really hurt?
So, no, I'm not "Team Leno" or "Team Conan". I'm "Team Let's Grow Up and Stop Making Everything Into a War When It Doesn't Need to Be One".
