He needed to stop and think about his 200 staff members that will be out of a job - many uprooting themselves from New York to follow him out here.  He should have thought about his low rating numbers before he threw down the gauntlet. NBC is a group of morons but all Conan had to do was let Leno have that 1/2 hour show and soon it would be canceled like his 10 PM show is going to be - and Conan would be back at his 11:35 PM time slot.  And if that didn't happen - fine - go with it and be happy that you are one of a rare few that will ever sit at that Tonight Show Desk.  Take your $30 million Conan and now what are you going to do - as you have really tarnished your image.  Dumb move on your part - and good luck to you.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[George]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 20th 2010 9:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[AH SHADDUP. DONT YOU READ OR WATCH THE NEWS ? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[FORKUU]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 20th 2010 10:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[Did you read his statement?  Because if you did, you would KNOW why Conan refused the offer.  Conan grew up watching the Tonight Show and has obviously always wanted it and respected the franchise.  Conan said no because he believed that it would ruin the franchise and it would!  The Tonight Show has been at that same time for 60 YEARS!!!! If he pushed it back half an hour, it wouldn't be the Tonight Show, but the really early show.  Personally, I think Carson would be proud that Conan stood up for what he believed in against a network.<br><br>Do you really think Conan wanted his staff to lost their job?  NO!  And it's evident that he cares about them because the reason why the deal took so long to sign was that he was negotiating a payout for his staff.  And he is also going to give them some money of his own.  <br><br>And for what NBC is putting Conan through, with his career and not letting him work til Sept and that his contract has 3 1/2 more years, then I do agree with him that he should get paid out.  Conan has worked for that network for 17 YEARS and this is how they treat him.  If you are okay with how NBC treats their employees, then I wouldn't expect you to understand humanity.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Drea8588]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 5:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[My comment had nothing to do with class-I've never even seen his show!

EVERYTHING WILL STAY THE SAME.  THIS IS JUST A "PUNK'D" SCENERIO!!!  Both will have achieved the ratings and recognition that NBC has been seeking; both will go back to the "friends" basis that they have been showing; and Leno will get to snub his nose at Letterman, complete with a "gotcha".

The only thing Leno had was jaywalking and after first 500 times of seeing it, it got REALLY old.  Plus he jacked it from Steve Allen.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Drea8588]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 5:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think Conan Bid on it but I didn't look at the auction.

This guy is so pathetically arrogant and obnoxious that I was totally shocked that he got this contract to start with. What on earth was NBC thinking? He has this sense of being a legend in his own mind. There is nothing charming, amusing, gracious or charming about him. He's just so FULL of Conan. I doubt if this little pause will help him to take a full look at himself and reevaluate his behavior.  The minute he comes on I turn him off. His jackets are always soooo short, and he has these weird legs that go on forever, almost like he has no body. When will a stylist correct this for him?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sandra Kelemen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 20th 2010 11:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[Good post.  My sentiments exactly!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[john livingston]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 1:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow your a very angry person inside.  You hate him because of his body type and the lenght of his jackets?  Do you also hate him for his name and ethnicity?  What about his height?  Because I'm suuuuuuuuuuuure he had control over those......................<br><br>Anyways, I WOULDN'T want him to be like Leno.  You wanna talk about someone who is selfish and arrogant?  Alright, let's talk about Leno.  That guy doesn't know how to share.  First it started with Lettermen in the early 90's.  He forced his way onto the Tonight Show even though, Carson wanted Lettermen.  And old habits die hard, because now he is pulling the saaaaaaaaame crap on Conan.  Leno would step over your body to get what he wants.  He's a ruthless jackass, who has no soul or conscience.  Leno is sooo pathetically holding onto a show he doesn't deserve because he has no sense of self.  NBC gave Leno ^ YEARS to find a new job or plan his future and did he?  NO!  And I DO remember Leno saying he would retire once Conan took over.  I guess he really means what he says.  There is a reason why Leno has no supports or friends.  Everytime I watch a Leno interview, it is soooo painful because he CANNOT connect with anyone.  In fact, I can't remember a moment on the show, when he has displayed actually emotions.  However, Conan has a life other than the show and was emotional when he talked about his newborn baby girl and cried on the last night of the tonight show.  So if you ask me whether I wanted a self depricating and goofy red head over a old dead inside mean, I think you know the anwser. Plus, if he was like Leno, then Conan would be like everyother late night talk show hosts.  Also, if you really think Conan is arrogant, you obviously don't understand his humor.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Drea8588]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 6:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[Jay Leno did Doritos commercials.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[stickeyeyeballhead]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 9:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/01/20/conan-obrien-for-sale-on-craigslists-casual-encounters/</guid><description><![CDATA[Conan O'Brien, is very very lucky, making this kind of money, his writers deserve the money, not him.

Yes, Conan has writers, but the jokes wouldn't work without him, so I would say he more than just lucky.   And not only that, Conan doesn't have writers when he is interviewing people, which are some of his greatest moments.  In addition, if you saw Conan's episodes during the writer's stirke of 07, you would have seen his greatest stuff WITHOUT writers]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Drea8588]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 6:15AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
