Anyone been following this?

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/comments_blog/2010/01/conan-obrien-will-leave-the-tonight-show-if-leno-returns-to-nbc-late-night.html

Every single thing leno has done has sabotaged conan's chances of succeeding - taken a lot of his viewers to a similar earlier show, provided a worse lead in....looks like nbc would be glad if conan just disappeared and jay could slot back in at 11.30

as an added bonus, it has provided letterman with some good material...

dont feel too sorry for conan though - he can sit out the remainder of his $80m contract at the beach. sure he wont be struggling to pay the bills!
but your right, its all interesting. far more internal polotics on us tv than we have here.

Apparently they don't have to pay Conan off as the small print says that if they change the title of the show slightly, when they bring Leno back, they can just bin Conan - or so I heard on the radio last night from the US showbiz reporter.
