NBC is Run by a Bunch of Talkin’ Monkeys. Like Ferris Bueller once said, “Life moves pretty fast; if you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it.” Never has this been truer than in the case of the evolving NBC late night debacle. Just as we posted our forum on Monday, word came from Conan himself that he wouldn’t host a Tonight Show that started at 12:05 am, stating bluntly, “For 60 years the Tonight Show has aired immediately following the late local news. I sincerely believe that delaying the Tonight Show into the next day to accommodate another comedy program will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting.”
