Looks like Leno is pretty much getting his show back. What will Conan do?

Well, however this ends up working out, Conan is going to walk away with quite a lot of money.

I feel exceptionally bad for Jimmy Fallon.
He'll no doubt be out of a job after all of this works out, if Conan doesn't actually switch networks.

Apparently Conan's last "Tonight show" will be Friday, Jan 22nd by the way. If anything this has been a ratings booster...I haven't watched these shows in a while, but I am now just to see the awkwardness.

I feel like Conan is leaving, if all the above is true...Prediction

NBC:

Leno: 11:35 PM

Fallon: 12:35 PM

Fox:

Conan: 11:00 PM

Just a hunch

I watched Conan tonight, and it was actually pretty funny.
It just seems like he's having fun again, considering nothing matters - it reminds me of when his shows first started. Awkward comments aplenty.

Leno should do the respectable thing and just back out. I will lose pretty much all respect for him if he takes back the Tonight Show.

NBC is keeping the copyrighted and trademarked elements of O'Brien's shows as part of the deal. That means the bits and characters will likely never be seen after O'Brien's "Tonight" ends its run Jan 22.

Conan O'Brien can get a whole lot of money from NBC as a parting gift, but there will be strings attached -- not the least of which ... Conan cannot trash the network.

Sources tell us NBC wants a liquidated damages clause if Conan says anything disparaging about the network once he leaves. Essentially that means there is a clause in the contract that says Conan will automatically pay a predetermined amount of money if he says bad things about NBC.

And, as we have previously reported, NBC will demand that Conan not take another hosting job for a certain period of time.

Sources say NBC will be paying Conan a hefty sum, but that will be offset by any amount Conan makes for his next hosting gig. So if Conan makes a deal with FOX, NBC can reduce the amount it pays Conan by the amount FOX forks over.

We've learned Conan's existing contract already has an offset clause in the event he leaves NBC and takes another job.

Sounds lame. I'd love to think that Conan would just say "BS" to all these stipulations no matter what the contract says and just hammer NBC, but I understand he's worked hard not to lose that money. It's such a shitty position for him if that's how the contract really puts it. Either way, I'm sure he'll be fine and making plenty of money.

Howard Stern warns Conan about Leno - Dec. 14, 2006

Jeff Zucker had Conan arrested back at Harvard.
