Jay sucks!

Conan was great. He was funny and not mean spirited like Letterman.

NBC made a grave error in pushing Conan out.

If Conan is wise, he’d work for Fox for $1, so NBC will have to fork over the whole kitten-kaboodle.

I thought Jimmy Kimmel was on ABC. Maybe this guy means Jimmy Fallon. But if he gets that wrong multiple times in his rant, it’s not a typo and that pretty much shoots down any arguments or conclusions he makes if he doesn’t know that difference.

Not that it makes any real difference, as I wouldn’t watch any of them. Who gives a flying F*** about them?

Joking about Hitler is not my cup of tea. This column is trash.

Conan is boring, not funny, and nearly unwatchable. Always has been.

What I don’t understand is why Obama isn’t outraged about all the money NBC is throwing around at so few people. Didn’t NBC benefit from the TARP money GE received back when they were bailed out?
