I've never liked Jay Leno. His humor is entirely centered on making other people look stupid. Conan, on the other hand, is comic genius. I am really disappointed that this didn't work out for him.

Conan O’Brien says he will not host “The Tonight Show” if it is moved to 12:05 a.m.
In a statement Tuesday afternoon, Mr. O’Brien said he cannot participate “in what I honestly believe is its destruction.”
Mr. O’Brien’s comments come two days after NBC formally outlined a plan to move “The Jay Leno Show” to 11:35 p.m. in March, elbowing Mr. O’Brien’s “Tonight Show” back half an hour. Mr. Leno seems supportive of the plan; but in his statement, Mr. O’Brien rejects it outright.
