The best thing about Conan O'Brien taking over The Tonight Show was NO MORE JAY LENO. If you give the bigotry-spewing assdrip his own show, no less his own show five nights a week, that totally defeats the purpose of GETTING RID OF HIM.Mr. Leno's new show will appear at 10 o'clock each weeknight in a format similar to "The Tonight Show," which he has hosted since 1993.Lucky us!
…Though Mr. Leno will command an enormous salary, probably more than $30 million a year, the cost of his show will be a fraction of what a network pays for dramas at 10 p.m. Those average about $3 million an episode. That adds up to $15 million a week to fill the 10 p.m. hour. Mr. Leno’s show is expected to cost less than $2 million a week.
In addition, NBC will get more weeks of original programming. Network dramas typically make 22 to 24 episodes a year. Under this deal, the executives involved in the discussions said, Mr. Leno will perform 46 weeks a year.
I can't believe that jerk will make "probably more than $30 million a year" to continue to pollute the airwaves with his contemptible swill. That ain't right.
