Date for Leno's Departure Announced

It was announced today that Jay Leno's last night as host of "The Tonight Show" on NBC will be Friday May 29th, 2009. I can't imagine Monday nights without "headlines." My whole family gathers together to laugh at the crazy things people send in from crazy news stories and ads. I love Conan O'Brien but I fear that "The Tonight Show" is going to turn into "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and is going to lose the charm of Jay Leno's well oiled evening show.


Jimmy Fallon, the goofball formerly from "Saturday Night Live" is set to take over O'Brien's show in March 2009.
It has been speculated that Leno is being pursued for a light night show on ABC. Leno told CNN that he is ready to "jump ship." NBC competitors sure aren't going to let Leno leave late night television forever.
