http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/01/15/leno-hosts-kimmel-roasts/?hp Two choice excerpts from Kimmel's visit to Leno's pathetic "10 at 10" thingy: >>>>>> But as the interview progressed, Mr. Kimmel's responses became more scathing. Asked what was the best prank he ever pulled, he answered: "I told a guy that five years from now, I'm going to give you my show. Then when the five years came, I took it back almost instantly." And when Mr. Leno inquired if there was anything Mr. Kimmel wanted to host but hadn't yet, Mr. Kimmel replied, "Oh, this is a trick, right, where you get me to host the 'Tonight Show' and then take it back from me? Listen, Lucy, I'm not Charlie Brown - I don't fall for that trick." Even when the interview appeared to be over, Mr. Kimmel made one last appeal on behalf of himself and Mr. O'Brien. "Listen, Jay, Conan and I have children," he said. "All you have is cars. We have lives to lead here. You have $800 million. For God's sake, leave our shows alone." Mr. Leno could not do much more than awkwardly thank his guest and go to a commercial break. >>>>>>> Wow.
