Scott points out exactly what is wrong with the NBC way of thinking. Now, they certainly have one heck of a mess to fix. What a great article.

Conan is way more hip and funny than grumpy old man / sexual harasser David Letterman. Conan is also the best interviewer of all the late night hosts with his quick wit and self-deprecating humor. Hopefully Conan will jump to Fox and keep his 11:30 timeslot. I was a big fan of Leno, but his 10:00 show seemed lazy and stale. I also love Craig Ferguson's ad-libbed monologues. It takes a true talent to ad-hoc 10 minutes of funny every night. And Jimmy Fallon is very hip and fun to watch, especially if you want to know what's hot with the young crowd these days, though sometimes it's a bit too noisy and silly for me (guess I'm showing my age too). I don't know anyone under 50 who prefers Letterman. But he fits right in with the 60 Minutes dinosaur crowd. I think it’s an age thing.
