The Jay Leno Show is an American comedy that aired on
NBC. This show was hosted by Jay Leno himself and first aired in 2009. The show was located at
NBC's Studio 11 in Burbank, CA and is broadcasted in both standard definition and HD.
The Jay Leno Show was basically NBC's attempt at moving Jay to a more successful time slot, but this did not go over to well and right now Jay has his old job back as the host of the Tonight Show. Even though The Jay Leno Show received millions of views this was nothing compared to what his old show was getting, in addition his replacement on The Tonight Show was not drawing the viewers that
NBC had hoped he would; Conan O'Brian was not a bad host but I think people were just used to seeing Jay at that time of the night and when they heard he was leaving, they stopped watching.
This should be a lesson to any network; if you have a successful program gong why mess it up by moving things around. The only way NBC should have even dreamed of doing this was if The Tonight Show had started to drop in viewership; nothing like that had even happened. But nobody was real surprised because NBC has been known to do things like this before; it is a wonder how they stay in business with such reckless people in management. Yes,
NBC has given us some pretty great shows over the years but that does not make up for the amount they have sent down the drain, I am just glad they realized their mistake so soon.
The Jay Leno Show was pretty entertaining. I found the jokes to be funny not just because Leno has a great sense of humor but also because the writers behind the scenes did a great job at keeping the audience interested in every moment of the show. Often times shows of this nature are pretty bland and not very great, but this is one show that I can say without a doubt that is a must watch. Of course there are not going to be any new episodes but you can still watch the episodes that aired during the five months it was on TV. These episodes can be found online at
NBC.com or you can tune into NBC at 10/9c to see the reruns of this program.
