The
Jay Leno Show aired for the last time in primetime.
The show aired at 10 p.m. from September 14, 2009, to February
9, 2010, on NBC, after
Leno's initial retirement from hosting The
Tonight Show with Jay Leno. In
January 2010, NBC announced that due to affiliate concerns about its effect on
their newscasts, The Jay Leno Show would be shortened to 30
minutes and moved from primetime to 11:35 p.m., the timeslot that had been
occupied by The Tonight Show for nearly 60 years.
The
Tonight Show host Conan O'Brien released
a public statement saying that he would not participate in moving Tonight to
12:05 a.m., asserting that it would damage the highly respected
franchise. Despite much support for O'Brien from both the public and
media professionals alike NBC maintained its plan to move Leno to 11:35.
On January 21, 2010, NBC reached a $45 million settlement with O'Brien in order
to end his contract. Leno ended on February 9, 2010, after
being on the air for only four months, with Entertainment
Weekly calling the program
television's "Biggest Bomb of All Time." Leno resumed his duties
as host of Tonight on March 1, 2010, which lasted until 2014.
