NBC Shakeup -- Jay Leno Comes Out on Top [tmz.com]

Quote :
We've learned Jay's 10:00 PM show will go on hiatus February 1. After the Olympics, Jay will take back his 11:30 PM time slot. What has not been decided -- whether Jay's show will be a half hour, followed by Conan, or whether Jay's show will be an hour and NBC says sayonara to Mr. O'Brien.

We're told Jay and Conan have both been told of the changes. As for Jay, interestingly, he'll get what he always wanted -- his 11:30 PM time slot.
No words on what will happen to Conan and Fallon... whether they both will get pushed back one hour of if one of them will be fired.

I prefer Leno at 11:30 than 10:00.

Manager: Conan Wants to Do New Show "As Soon As He Possibly Can"

Conan O'Brien wants to return to the air with another show "as soon as he possibly can" after his non-compete clause with NBC expires in September, his manager told TVGuide.com.

"He'd like to do another show not dissimilar to what he did," Gavin Polone said. "And he'd like to work with the people he's been working with."

NBC dumps Conan for $45 million payoff; reinstates Jay as Tonight Show host

O'Brien's $45 million exit deal with NBC, which includes a $12 million severance for his loyal staff members who moved out with him to Los Angeles last year for The Tonight Show, stipulates that he cannot work elsewhere until Sept. 1. Fox has already expressed interest in O'Brien, and others networks are putting feelers out as well. Polone declined to comment on any offers.

O'Brien's last Tonight Show airs Friday. He will welcome guests Will Ferrell, Tom Hanks and musical guest Neil Young. Ferrell and Hanks were among his first guests in his debut week last June.

Quote from Zoe Moon :
I'm sure that's not 60 grand each. It will most likely be divided up based on a percentage each employees salary. Some will get way more than 60k and the majority will probably get a lot less than 60k.
Conan's agent said that he's supplementing what NBC agreed to pay his staff out of his own pocket, so the number could be substantially higher.

Death threats?!?!?... Hmmm...Practicing the new line up?... Dontknow

Jay doesn't start the Tonight Show again until after the Olympics, right? So have y'all heard what the plan is for 11:35 slot until then?
