Leno struggling to gain a 1.5 share

The grand experiment by NBC – moving late night king Jay Leno into prime time in order to cut back on costly dramas and save money – is now officially a failure. Sure, the network probably won’t change course this season; mainly because they would need five hours of prime time programming to take the place of Leno, and the network has very few hits waiting in the wings. This season.

But if the sale of NBC to Comcast goes through, as expected, perhaps things will change; if NBC orders an unusually high number of dramas to pilot this spring, you can bet Jay won’t be in prime time five nights a week next fall. Go, Comcast! Send this idiots who killed NBC on some permanent Orlando vacations.
