Wow NBC does not want to make shows anymore I guess

Leno will have a Mon-Fri gig at 10pm starting in 2009

I am not a Leno fan but I'm not a hater. Usually some of the best dramas are on at 10. Another blow to TV IMO

The five-day format will help NBC reduce its prime-time development and production costs in a tough economy. Leno said it would probably cost the network as much for him to do five shows a week as it would for one hour of scripted comedy or drama programming.

They fill five nights for the cost of one.

I guess it's no different than FOX, which has it's news at 10 PM. At least my area does.

Make the throwback uniforms permanent!

Truth be told they should have given him Conan's spot and kept Jimmy Fallon far far away from any comedy show. Of course Leno would probably never have agreed to this and I wonder how Conan feels still being stuck in the #2 spot.
