“Late Fight”

Well, it took them over 17 years, but NBC is finally handing Johnny Carson’s timeslot over to David Letterman. (Just by accident, and on another network.)

NBC wants to move The Tonight Show with Conan O’brien to a 12:05 to 1 :05am time slot, , and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to 1:05 to 2:05. Until Daylight Savings begins again, at which point they’ll simplify matters by just having Fallon killed.

Conan O’brien announced that he would not participate in a Tonight Show pushed back to 12:05am. So Paula Abdul may wind up with a TV job this season after all.
