Goodnight Jay

NBC announces tonight the retirement of Jay Leno and new Tonight Show host Conan O'Brien. Conan is, in my mind, more of a successor to Carson than Leno ever was. Under Jay, the Tonight Show has been dumbed down. Is watching stupid people try to answer questions really that funny?

I'm not sure how Conan's antics will play at 11:35. He has to appeal to more than college kids now. His show has to draw viewers from 18 to 80. But if anybody has the class to do it, it's Conan.

An interesting thought: with Conan taking the slot Letterman always wanted, will 2009 see Conan and Letterman in the same time slot?

Probably not.
