For months we have been hearing about how Jimmy Fallon is set to replace Jay Leno on The Tonight Show when the latter’s contract is up next year. Well tonight of all nights, the Late Night host and The Tonight Show one addressed the rumors during his show at 12:37a on NBC in a way only Fallon can.
You know what I am beginning to think that neither Leno nor Fallon will be leaving their shows next year and that this is all just a ploy to boost both show’s ratings. And you know what it is working because they were up last week. I sincerely don’t think that Leno will be going anywhere when his contract up. Seriously Leno is #1 and what else besides The Voice can NBC say that about? Why would you get rid of something that actually is doing well on your network when everything else you have is doing so badly? Does that make sense? What do I know I am just a viewer, I didn’t run a network into the ground.
