Tonight is the premiere of the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien. The former Late Night host will take over as host of the highest rated late night show (one thing NBC has been good at in ratings). Jay Leno’s last night was last Friday, which was his best Friday night in his 17 year run. But that is the most of it. He drew bigger audience with the Johnny Carson tribute show (in 2005, after the death of the Tonight Show legend), and when Obama appeared as host. Though, no one would think it could even touch Carson’s last show, but you’d think it would at least be top for Leno himself. But, it’s probably because it’s not a farewell, since this fall, Leno will be back with his own show on NBC every weeknight at 10PM.

So, how will Conan do? In my opinion, I think he’ll be just fine. I loved him on Late Night, and I believe he appeals more to the target demo.
