Well, I don’t think Fallon will get the ratings. But they’ll carry him and pretend everything is fine if so. They’re done with Leno
Too bad Leno pushed Ted Cruz around and mischaracterized him. Leno now has no home
I saw the Cruz interview. I don’t think Leno pushed him around. He basically just repeated all the conventional “wisdom” from the media talking heads. Ted dealt with it OK. I don’t think Jay will have any problem getting a late night show on another network if he wants one.
I watched Fallon one night, and it’s just his old show moved up an hour. I’m not a big fan, but I’m sure he’ll do OK in the ratings, probably better than Letterman, if not as well as Jay.
