Comments on: Conan vs. Leno vs. NBC – Everyone Loses http://kristingast.com/2010/01/15/conan-vs-leno-vs-nbc-everyone-loses/ Musings of a Twenty-Something Tue, 20 Dec 2011 19:56:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Liz Strand http://kristingast.com/2010/01/15/conan-vs-leno-vs-nbc-everyone-loses/comment-page-1/#comment-332 Liz Strand Sat, 16 Jan 2010 13:09:25 +0000 http://kristingast.com/?p=269#comment-332 Considering I almost never watch late night TV, unless one of my favorite actors shows up on the Tivo wishlist, I have a lot of thoughts on this fiasco. What was NBC thinking in the first place? Sure, Leno may be cheaper than dramas, but showing nothing at all would be even cheaper. You're a network though, and the idea is to show TV shows... Somehow, NBC has managed to take the first mistake, and turn it into a million mistakes. They have to eliminate the 9pm (CT) Leno before the newscasts revolt, but they thought they could appease everyone by sliding them later in the evening? Considering how low Conan's ratings were, exactly where were all these people now claiming to be on #TeamConan? If they'd been watching all along, this scenario would look a lot different! Ok, I'm done rambling on now! Considering I almost never watch late night TV, unless one of my favorite actors shows up on the Tivo wishlist, I have a lot of thoughts on this fiasco.
