NBC Wants People To Watch CBS

Watching the NBC train wreck is fascinating. Just how much failure does it take to get one fired? Silverman and Zucker are still kicking around NBC, after tying the network to the back of a pick up truck and driving it down an isolated road. How bad is NBC? Four words: My Own Worst Enemy. Wait, two words: Knight Rider. Wait, one word: Heroes.

Now they've upped the failure to epic proportions.

NBC will keep Jay Leno five nights a week, but in prime time, competing not with David Letterman, but with shows like “CSI: Miami.”

The network will announce Tuesday that Mr. Leno’s new show will appear at 10 o’clock each weeknight in a format similar to “The Tonight Show,” which he has hosted since 1993.

It's like watching a car crash fall on top of a train wreck. Not only is this the worst idea in the history of television, but it's also NBC's way of kicking Conan O'Brien in the teeth. Worst lead in ever. EVER.

Oh, and the shockingly talentless Jimmy Fallon will replace Conan when he moves to the Leno slot. Jesus fucking Christ.
