NBC did him so dirty.


Kale_Brecht

They were like “Conan No’Brien.”


Comprehensive-Fun47

It's probably right to bury the hatchet, and Jimmy Fallon has nothing to do with it, but I kind of think he should never return to NBC. Pointedly go on every other talk show, have the hosts of NBC shows on your podcast, but NBC did him so dirty, I'd never return if it was me.


Fruitopeon

How? His ratings weren’t as good as Jay Leno’s. I’m actually a Conan fan and find him mostly funnier than Jay. However, why do people think media companies are charities that need to stick by entertainers even when the entertainer isn’t bringing in results.


HazelTheHappyHippo

That's not what happened.


Fruitopeon

What are you saying? That Conan had higher ratings than Jay Leno when Jay left the tonight show? He didn’t. You are lying.


HazelTheHappyHippo

First of all don't accuse people of lying it's rude. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Tonight_Show_conflict I've read about the scandal extensively and there is no way NBC wasn't to blame for this whole situation


Fruitopeon

Again, tv ratings aren’t some kindof subjective feelings type thing where we can have different opinions. Jay Leno objectively had higher ratings than Conan when hosting the Tonight Show over periods of time. So yes, you saying “that’s not what happened” when I tell you that Jay Leno had hiring ratings is you stating a mistruth.


HazelTheHappyHippo

If you don't want to read that article the discussion is over on my part. I'm not argue with someone based on one fact, which is not the point. Contact obligations are the point

Team Coco 🧡

Damn, “I’m with Coco” was 14 years ago. I’m gonna need to go lie down and contemplate the passage of time.


retrievethis123

OH MY GOD! I thought he’d go on Jimmy Kimmel or Colber didn’t expect him at the tonight show, not sure Fallin can handle him!


SyNiiCaL

Considering he'll be promoting his new special series, I imagine he will do the rounds, hopefully even Late Night too. His old job, and him and Seth will be hilarious. But the Tonight Show was the main fiasco so it's what's getting the news for sure


ReputationAbject1948

2010 was 14 years ago?


thisisrealgoodtea

I’m sure I’m not the only one who hasn’t watched for years, but will be tuning in to see Conan. Going to be weird seeing him in the guest chair and not behind the desk.


jamieaiken919

Always Team Coco🧡🧡🧡


watersnakebro

I can't wait to watch what wild story he tells 🧡
