The impact of the failed timeslot is causing a ripple, which may result in good programs like Conan O'Brien taking the fall. I agree, Jeff Zucker should be preparing his "please explain speech" and sadly it is the shows that many people enjoy, which are taking the bullet for him. At the moment emotions are probably high for those who face a threat, so it's not the best time for them to be signing up to other networks. There are almost no late night TV shows in Australia, we import the likes of Letterman for free-to-air viewers. Hopefully O'Brien will be scooped up by a grateful network, but it seems like a very competitive market in America, and finding the right spot for him could be difficult. I like your suggestion of Comedy Central.Nicholas R.W. Henninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08066082986781177333noreply@blogger.com
