  1. * Even if he loses the demo at first, in the long term he’s in a much better position than Letterman or Leno would be, since he appeals to a younger viewer.

     

    i was telling my mom this exact thing when all the hoopla was going on. our gen and younger just doesn't like leno/letterman for the most part and their audience is aging...conan's could only grow. i have a feeling this backlash can only magnify this. i think oprah said she polled her audience prior to interviewing leno and something like 98% of them had an unfavorable opinion of leno. it's not very scientific but still, that doesn't bode well for when he goes back to the tonight show. remember though, it was the affiliates who were pressuring nbc. i think nbc would have given conan more time had it not been for the affiliates. so boycott the news!!!

  2. yeah, probably. first dollhouse and now this. i'm not surprised though. conan's not mainstream enough for the leno audience. i was afraid that he would tone his shit down to be more time slot friendly and lose his fans but it ended up being that he didn't tone it down (too much) and the tonight show audience doesn't get it.

     

    i just hope conan can find a channel that will give him a show.

    when dexter called rita's cellphone and realized it was still in the house, I thought that trinity had taken rita and put her somewhere and since dexter killed trinity, he'd have to spend next season trying to find her. man, i really didn't expect another huge death after lundy this season.
