Conan O'Brien is on fire tonight!

Malenko:
When Johnny Carson retired, he retired.

hypernova:
Is Leno really FOX material, though?  Conan is much more suitable to FOX than Leno is.

Leno is an ass.  I can't believe that he has so little respect for The Tonight Show as an institution.  The show has been on the air for over 50 years, hosted by the likes of Jack Paar, Johnny Carson and now him (someone else before all them but I forget the name).  It is a staple of American culture.  And as soon as Leno is done with it he's perfectly ready to destroy it so he can have The Jay Leno show.  Ass.

Dartful Dodger:
On the radio this morning they were playing the speech Leno gave when he took over for Carson.

He was talking about hard feelings and friendships being lost over the transition and that he's learned from that experience so when it's time for him to pass the torch it will go smoothly and he explained how they would do that.  Then the DJ dissected Leno's speech and line by line pointed out how Leno did the exact opposite of everything he said he was going to do.  It was funny.

Jokes aside, I don't think anyone is to blaim.  NBC needs to do what makes them the most money and the most ratings.

I like Conan more than Leno, but I can count the times I've seen the show with Conan on one hand.
