[ # ] Jay Leno says he will not do another late night show
January 27th, 2014 under Jay Leno, Jimmy Fallon


Jay Leno and Jimmy Fallon did their first joint interview today on Today with Matt Lauer about the changing of guard over at The Tonight Show in a few weeks. The two late night hosts seemed sincere when they said there are no hard feelings between them and that they only wish the other one good luck in their next endeavor.
Leno also admitted that this time around he was asked to step down from The Tonight Show and he is OK with passing the torch over to Fallon. The current host of Late Night admitted he doesn’t know what to expect when he takes over as host of The Tonight Show on February 17th. One thing he can expect is that Leno will not try to take his job back this time because he told Lauer he doesn’t want to do another late night talk show.
The interview felt very awkward to me, not because of Leno and Fallon, who I sincerely think are friends; but because of Lauer. It didn’t feel as comfortable as it should be and after talking with Fallon last week at the TCAs, it felt like things are copacetic between them. Maybe it was Lauer who was uncomfortable, thus making the interview feel that way. What do you think?
