Leno’s Back at The Tonight Show and I Didn’t Watch!

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Jay LonoAs we all know Leno resumed hosting NBC’s The Tonight Show after the network decided to fuck over Conan.  Well, I for one was pissed off about the whole situation.  NBC sure has some morons running that place.  However, after Conan’s last show and his comments about, “please don’t be cynical. I hate cynicism — it’s my least favorite quality and it doesn’t lead anywhere.”  Well, I decided that I would still continue to watch NBC and I might even give Leno a chance.

Of course it was a few days later that they announced that there were canceling the Bonnie Hunt Show.  I don’t often watch that show but I know many who do including my own mother who was heartbroken over the cancellation.  Once again, I was disgusted by NBC.  Then there was the Olympics.  The Olympics finally in an American time zone!  I was thrilled, I Conan Says Goodbyewould get to see all the action live and not tape delayed!  Nope!  NBC fucked that up to!  Seems it was too much to give the folks in the Pacific Time Zone, (the same time zone the Olympics were in), a chance to watch anything live.  No, they had to tape delay just about everything! Morons!

But, still I was willing to give NBC a chance and still maybe even Leno.  That was until I saw his new ad promoting the Tonight Show.  Leno sporting around in his classic car to The Beatles, “Back Where You Belong.”  Really?  That was his bright idea to make everyone feel welcome to his show?  To basically say in a song, “Hey, I’m back and I should have never left, sorry having to deal with Conan for 8 months but I am back now!”  Well, that was a complete, “SCREW YOU!” to Conan and his fans.

When The Tonight Show finally aired again after the Olympics, I didn’t watch it, I saw that it was on and turned on The Discovery Channel instead.  So once again, I have to say sorry to Fallon and Carson but I won’t be seeing much of you anymore and you can thank Leno’s ego and NBC’s stupidity for it!  And, Conan, I am sorry as well.  I tried not to be cynical, I really did but NBC late night go fuck itself.

On a side note, I was ordering some DVD’s.  As I have ranted before, I tend to watch TV shows on DVD instead when they air on TV for many reasons.  Some new Law & Orders were out as well as seasons, 10 thru 12 of ER, I have the prior seasons on DVD.  Instead I ordered a few seasons of CSI NY and CSI Miami.  Sure I will probably get the L&O’s in the future, but right now, I am just too pissed to give NBC any of my hard earned money and I urge everyone out there to do the same.

You see, these idiots only hear complaints.  Most people don’t write to praise anything, but when things piss them off, well, the rants do flow.  So rant!  Complain, don’t think for a second it doesn’t matter.  You can make a difference and those that say you can’t, do so because all they know how to do is fail.

I guess NBC is short for Nothing But Crap.

Thanks to NBC for FUCKING UP the Olympics Experience!

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Now, the Olympics aren’t over yet but from day one NBC has done everything possible to fuck up the Olympic experience for everyone.  First the opening ceremonies and they don’t show them live in the pacific time zone.  We had to watch them tape delayed.  Why?  Who fuckin knows?  I mean the Olympics are happening in this time zone for god sakes!  Then as I am waiting for the opening ceremonies to start I get an alert from CNN letting me know that Wayne Gretzky lit the flame.  So not only do I know who the big surprise person is, when it happens I don’t really care because I already know.

Since the Olympics are staying in one place as they always do for each Olympics.  I tune in to watch this afternoon because they’re still in the same time zone and, Ellen is on? ! Now, don’t get me wrong, I love Ellen.  But, the fucking Olympics are happening and NBC is showing Ellen!  What’s on after Ellen?  Not the Olympics!  It’s Martha Stewart!

Lindsey Vonn FlagI was really excited about today’s Olympics, I wanted to see how Lindsey Vonn would would do in her event.  Of course NBC thinks showing Ellen and Martha are more important than the Olympics.  My email goes off and I take a look, it’s another CNN alert.  “Injured Lindsey Vonn wins gold medal!”  Great!  Thanks NBC!  Sure would be nice to watch this shit live like the rest of the fucking world!  So thanks NBC for once again taking something so simple and completely fucking it up!

I can’t get over how much I used to love NBC.  However, it seems making excuses for their stupidity and ignorance isn’t working, so bashing their dumb ass every time they do something stupid I guess is the only thing left.  Maybe someone will eventually wake up over there and get their head out of their ass.  I doubt it, but one can hope!

Conan O’Brien To Leave The Tonight Show!

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Well, it’s official!  Team Conan has lost, Leno has won.  It’s a sad, sad day and just another sign that NBC, the once great network is now total shit!  I personally am going to watch Conan’s last show tomorrow night.  After that, I am done with NBC.   So Ellen, Bonnie, Jimmy and Carson I am sorry but I refuse to watch a network that would do something so damn stupid.

I always buy the Law & Order DVD’s when they come out, I love 30 Rock.  I will miss those shows but I am just absolutely disgusted with NBC right now I will no longer be purchasing these shows.  I have been watching Conan from day one!  He is part of NBC, how they could do this is beyond me.  It just shows that the executives at NBC are just fucking stupid!  These fucking morons should be fired for lack or creativity.

I once took my parents to see The Tonight Show with Leno.  It is a great memory.  That show had Elton John and Billy Joel.  We sat right next to the stage they performed on.  What a great show it was.  Leno has always impressed me as a humble, goodhearted man.  I can see now, he is not.

I am hoping Conan takes a job on another station and continues his show.  I hope that it starts specifically at 11:35 pm Monday thru Friday and they call it, The Real Tonight Show!

As I understand it, Conan is getting something like 30 million for leaving and another 12 million for his staff as severance pay.  Hope they all join him for  his new show next September.

I have been supportive of NBC and it’s failed ratings in the past but no longer.  Now, I am gonna take pride in watching the network continue with their idiotic decisions in the future.  And, when they are down, I will kick them.  What a bunch of backstabbing bastards that network has turned out to be.  Shame on them.
