Hopefully his show will change, I never really liked his show too much but I used to work nights and it was all that was on. I will miss the show without Jay on it but then again since I no longer take a nap after getting home from work I rarely see it any more but I do plan to stay up for the last show.

I am looking forward to it. I personally did not care for Jay Leno's comedy, have always like Conan. I probably won't stay up, but I might DVR it.

I hope that they don't change it, but I think the same thing will happen to Conan as what happened to Letterman. Watered down e, safe comedy made to draw a wider audience and offend nobody. I think the days of the Masturbating Bear and Triumph are gone (I REALLY hope I am wrong)

Who is playing Conan since Arnold is a governor now? The movies were ok at best I don't see how they can turn it into a weekly show.

I find Conan hilarious. There is a promo of him just running down the beach in a suit that made me laugh. There was a time during the writer's strike he had to do the show with no writers. He built a zip line and strapped rockets on his shoes to stop Booth from shooting Lincoln. Good times.

But David Letterman's show is his show, to the best of my knowledge he has always been the host except for possible guest hosts.
Jay Leno's show was not originally his show; he took over for Johnny Carson who took over the show from others. Conan is not taking "his" show and moving into that spot he is taking over the Tonight Show just as others have done. The tonight show is not "his" show and shouldn't be, he should try and carry on the traditions of the show if he wants to do "his" show he should have kept "his" show. Now obviously he will have his influence but he is not just moving his show to another time slot. |

I think they will tone it down a little bit due to the time slot. I hope not, but I think they will have to.
Like Parker36 said, don't want to offend anyone.
He's really funny, and I think that over time he will put his stamp on the tonight show.
