NBC executives have reportedly met with Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien, discussing what to do with NBC’s late-night time slots and The Jay Leno Show at 10p. NBC executives would not confirm any final decisions nor deny a report touted by the website TMZ and others outlets suggesting the network is considering cancelling Leno’s primetime show and returning him to his old job as host of The Tonight Show, potentially leaving Conan out in the cold. Alternatively, rumors suggest Jay could get the 1130p slot, and Conan could get the midnight slot.  NBC has released a statement saying they are committed to The Jay Leno Show and to Conan O’Brien.  The network has admitted they underestimated the negative impact sustained by affiliates’ 11p local newscasts nationwide as a result of Leno’s low primetime show ratings.
