Today is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. At NBC you don't get the whole day off, but they do let you start work an hour and a half later than usual.
Tonight on Larry King Live: Will springing ahead an hour for Daylight Saving Time make the Tonight Show the Tomorrow Show?
Huge rainstorms are scheduled to hit the West Coast this week. Conan O'Brien has built an ark and he's boarding his staff members two by two.
Well, it sounds like Conan O'Brien will host his last Tonight Show on Friday. I wouldn't say that Conan lost to Leno, it's just that he's not able to take it on the chin as well.
The rumor right now is that NBC will pay Conan O'Brien a 4o million dollar settlement. Part of that money is for the staff so they can move from LA back to New York, where it's even later.
NBC is in a hurry to get Conan off the air and begin tying up loose ends....before those other Olympics begin.
About Me
- Wendel Potter
- My writing career took off in 1979 and it continues to roll. I've written comedy for Joan Rivers, Jay Leno, Rodney Dangerfield, and the Yakov Smirnoff Show. I was a weekly columnist for a Nebraska newspaper for 10 years. Several of my short stories have been published in a national magazine, Woman's World. This blog is a return to old columns dear to my heart and new essays that are currently ideas on a close horizon. I hope we can become friends.
