Jay Leno staying on NBC in prime time

Jay Leno is staying at NBC, and he’s moving to prime time.

The network announced Tuesday that Leno will host a show five nights a week at 10 p.m. Eastern, after he leaves the “Tonight” show next year. The network had announced nearly five years ago that Conan O’Brien would move to “Tonight” and succeed Leno.

What??? Why is he coming to Prime Time? I thought that when he left the Tonight show, he would actually retire like a normal human being.  I can tell you right now that I won’t watch whatever show he does.  I can’t stand the Tonight show as it is.  I don’t see why he thinks that it’ll even be a smart move to go to Prime Time.

Leno in a prime time slot, he’ll definitely need to learn to censor himself, for sure.  I don’t think that he’ll last long on a prime time show.  Unless he’s acting in some crappy comedy.  We’ll see though, some people seem to think he’s the second coming.  I do understand why, however, NBC wants to keep him.  With Conan O’Brien taking over, they need to make sure that Leno doesn’t end up on another station and steal all the Tonight show viewers.

Now, can someone tell me why they chose Conan O’Brien? I don’t get it.
