Jay Leno Lives!
Fans of Jay Leno will be thrilled to hear the late-night ratings leader is getting a new 10 p.m. show on NBC. The Tonight Show host had been slated to give up his chair to Conan O’Brien in May 2010, but NBC has since worked to keep him, “fearing that he could leave and start a new late-night show on a competitor,” The Times reports. NBC will announce Tuesday that he has signed a new contract for a similar show at 10 p.m., to be set at Leno’s studio in Burbank, Calif. “No broadcast network has ever before offered the same show in prime time five nights a week,” The Times reports, adding the deal could help NBC “greatly reduce costs of developing and producing other prime-time shows.”
