Is Leno the Germany of late night TV? First with Letterman, 17 years later and now he is taking on Conan.

Hopefully this one won't end with a wall.

Interesting, over here we just get Letterman really late at night, and it's never on at any consistent time. But I mean really, they're all much of a muchness aren't they?

[broox]

Leno is doing irreparable damage to his reputation I think. Every day this continues he comes out looking worse.

[lynn]

What, in your opinion, should Leno do? Isn't he just doing what the execs are telling him to?

[broox]

He should resign and enjoy his countless millions and let Conan have his turn. Would he really rather see Conan pushed out so he can "un-retire?" Talk about ego!
