Watching him do his own show as Leno two nights earlier was even more magical though. He played Leno straight, and that was what was so amazing about it. He didn't need to exaggerate at all to showcase just how awful Leno is as a host.
I totally have a newfound respect for Kimmel after this.
If you want to see it yourself, some clips can be found here. The guy who did Kevin Eubanks was scarily good too. It was like watching the actual Jay Leno show!
did you see Conan snarky remarks concerning NBC?? Something like, NBC threatened to deny me any audience for months, . . . . . . . .'then just leave me on NBC' It is probably on YouTube. It has gotten rough out there. I still feel like it is reminiscent of when someone leaves a relationship and their new one does not work out and they come crawling back.......... That doesn't shine with me.......
This whole thing is quite a drama itself. It'll be real interesting to read about the behind the scene stuff once programs are moved and the dust has settled.
