I mean, if you are a Keifer Sutherland fan, are you seriously going to opt to tune AWAY from 24 in order to hear hear Jay's 6 minutes with Keifer? I don;t think this is a winning play at all. That's five hours of scripted shows which will no longer be available for replay on hulu. No longer sellable as DVDs and downloads in subsequent seasons ("Now on DVD-- Season #3 of The Jay Leno Show!" ZZzzz...) I think this is a stop-gap to prevent Leno from jumping to ABC or some other net, while it also helps NBC spackle over the fact that their primetime lineup for 2009 will likely be weaker than if they let drunken monkeys make the programming decisions. dumb dumb dumb dumb I wonder if people will be as interested to tune in for lame monologs, stupid canned bits, and tepid celeb “interviews” at the same hour when those celebs are on other networks in the shows that give them celebrity in the first damned place.
