I can't tell you how upset I am about the way NBC handled the Leno/Coco disaster. From what I understand when Leno and Connan were renegotiating their contracts they didn't want to lose either of them so they tried this crazy solution where they moved leno up and connan took the spot. I think most people can agree that Connan's show was not given the proper amount of time to adjust to the new audience and Leno proved himself to be a hack.
When Connan was booted I thought for sure he would find a home on another major network. When I heard Connan was going to TBS I almost fell out of my chair. I can't believe he would do that.
However crazy it sounds I can understand the logic. At TBS he'll be able to expand on some of his more risque skits like masturbating bear. Also I think he see's the trend of viewers moving to more specialized channels like FX, Comedy Central, and TBS.
But it would still take alot for TBS to gain the same credibility as the Late show or the Tonight show.
