Jimmy Fallon Replaces Conan O'Brien

Next year, when the sun finally comes out behind dark clouds. And Jay Leno FINALLY leaves the Tonight Show, someone who is actually funny will be taking over. Conan O'Brien will be taking over duties on The Tonight Show. Which many have wondered, what does that mean for Late Night With Conan O'Brien? Reruns of Cheers? Or a new host?

It was made known, but won't be made official/public till next monthish, that Jimmy Fallon will in fact be taking over the Late Night duties. I don't really mind this. I hate Jay Leno. I love Conan. But I hate how late Conan is on, so now, Conan is on earlier, Leno is gone. And I don't give two shits about Fallon. So it is win all around!

It is not officially set as to an exact date when all the chair switching goes on between the three guys. Jay is expected to leave in May next year. No idea if Conan takes over right away, or if there will be a period where Conan won't step in for a couple months. Either way, I am a happy camper.

And yes, I know that is a strange picture for this topic. But what would you rather see a picture of, Leno? Conan? Fallon? Or some hot broad?

There is a God! Conan O'Brien will for sure replace Jay Leno in 2009!

This was announced a while back but, with Jay Lenos current strong ratings, and wanting to stay on TV, it was rumored that the deal made might be broken and Leno would stay in the Tonight Show seat.... :(

BUT! Announced today by the head of NBC, Jeff, Zucker, told the New Yorker that Jay Leno is leaving, and Conan is in for 2009! Thank God!

The main reason being is that if the deal was broken, NBC would have to fork over over 40 million dollars to Conan O'Brien. This is the best news ever because Jay Leno is pretty much the farthest from being funny that a person can actually get. And Conan is just on too late for my sleeping schedule. Now all females in their 50s and over will have to either deal with Conan or find some new late night show to watch, since those are the only people that actually find Leno funny. HA HA!

As for who is replacing Conan, well there is a short list but the man at the top is one Jimmy Fallon... but does that really matter? No.
