This whole fiasco with the Tonight Show has left me in a silent hate rage against NBC & the toe fungus's that call them selves "executives". How can they do that to Conan?! They should have just let Leno walk! It simply boggles the mind how they stabbed him in the back like that!
Nearly everywhere I look, nearly everyone I speak to loves & supports Conan. Many celebrities, big & small do too. So why are these brainless executives treating Leno like a god while spitting on Conan? What dark powers are keeping him there?! I hope NBC has a massive backlash when the dust settles & Leno's Tonight Show 2.0 tanks worse in the ratings then his dog pile prime-time show has been doing.
Mad I tell you, MAD!
Yes, not everyone likes Conan, & yeah, it may not be all Leno's fault, they did supposedly “fired” him, but they also supposedly wouldn’t let him go according to Leno’s own words.
Really, the one to point the blame at would be Jeff Zucker, chief executive of NBC Universal; he has made a lot of bad choices, he’s admitted it, but he also made them such an ugly public mess & screwed Conan over in the process. No matter if you prefer Leno over Conan, Conan did get short end of the stick, no doubt about it, he was given promises that were not kept.
I wish Leno could have somehow left when he was “fired”, then did his own thing on another network, then Leno fans would have their place to watch him & Conan fans would have kept him where he was supposed to stay.
As a big Conan fan I’m angry over this & yes I’m not a Leno fan, but I don’t hate people for liking him, I just don’t like this whole situation, but I guess Conan gets a nice last pay check out of it, though he’d probably preferred to keep the Tonight Show over the money, but I wish him the best of luck & hope he finds something good & is able to keep his most, if not all his staff if possible.
I was so thrilled when I heard that Andy was returning to work with Conan. That to me was like the Beatles reuniting! Then, not too long ago they got him back at the couch during interviews like the old days… it literally makes me sad that we may be losing this again.
Conan is my hero & I hope he finds a place that will give him the respect he deserves. God speed sir! *salute* I will follow you to the ends of the broadcast universe.
Also, If you're a super fan of Conan, or just like him a bit & you use Twitter, follow @InConanWeStand to show your support! I don't know (& kind of doubt) they'll hit a million by Friday, but we can help them try!
Thank you.
