Talk:The Tonight Show with Jay Leno

message: Sometimes, the glass of water in the opening sequence will "magically" turn into a glass of milk, and on the other side of the glass, there will be two cookies, other times, it will remain as a glass of water, and no cookies will appear.

message: I didn't see the "Iron Jay" segments listed in the recurring segments, though he hasn't done it in a while, he did do it quite often towards the beginning of his Tonight Show tenure. There was also another one similar to the Iron Jay segments, but I don't remember what it was called. I don't know if these should be listed. I thought they were pretty funny though back when he did that. —Zachary talk 03:49, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I have removed the following from the introduction: " The first time was when Conan O'Brien guest-hosted as an audition for Late Night. " This is clearly wrong as O'Brien's tenure as host of Late Night coincided with Leno taking over the Tonight Show so there's no way O'Brien could have guest-hosted under Leno. It's possible he might have guest-hosted at some point under Carson, in which case this information belongs under the Carson version of the show, not here. 23skidoo (talk) 15:30, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  "New" Tonight Show 

message: The article says "The show is shot in 16:9 aspect ratio with a 4:3 center-cut for standard definition television sets." This was put in the article back on September 4, 2006 and I'm not sure what it means or if it's accurate now. I supposed that it was meant to say that SDTV broadcasts use a 4:3 center-cut, but at least where I live that's not the case. Here, the show is broadcast in SDTV (4:3) as a letterbox of the original 16:9 format, while in HDTV it is broadcast in original 16:9. I guess this might be different depending on the technical status of each local station. In any case, the article should refer to HDTV and SDTV broadcasts, not television sets. Also, this text has spilled over to the new article about the Conan Tonight Show. Bigmouth strikes (talk) 14:59, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: It is part of the Television project's guidelines, as well as other areas of the MoS. The rationale is that a series - as a creative work - still exists, even if it has ceased production of new episodes. (If you think about it, it makes sense. After all, we certainly don't refer to films and books in the past tense, even though work on them stops long before anyone views them.) Hope this helps. --Ckatzchatspy 08:47, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

text: Comment, though I agree to support the merge, I fail to see how this is identical to the Family Guy situation. FG wasn't one incarnation in a franchise, Tonight with Jay Leno is. Between the cancellation of FG in 2002 and its revival in 2005, there was no "intermediate replacement" that would require confusing distinction. In the Conan Tonight Show infobox, there is a "preceded by" and "succeeded by" value, and it is confusing to put both The Tonight Show with Jay Leno as a preceding and succeeding show unless both shows starring Leno are considered separate. — CIS (talk  | stalk) 20:27, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: The Tonight Show with Jay Leno: Merging March 15

message: As I stated, my intentions are to merge Jay Leno's Tonight Show tenures on Monday. I would like to merge them to the page "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", but if an admin has not blanked that page by Monday, I intend to just simply blank this page (unless arguments state otherwise) and redirect this page to the 1992 page. We could merge the two under the title The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (1992 TV series), update the disamb page to disclude this page, and wait for admin action. Does this sound like a good idea? (Again, this would only be carried out in this manner if the disamb page has not been deleted by Monday. This is better than losing the '92 series edit history.)Mwhayes1995 (talk) 23:10, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I oppose the merge extremely with brute force, This is the Second goddamn tenure! It should stay separated! I'm tired of all this merging stuff, if this merge happens, I guarantee that a lot of information like Format,Recurring segments,Ratings,History etc. of the 1992-2009 show will be deleted/removed or overwritten with 2010 show information.
I'm the first and the primary person that pushed very hard to separate these two shows because i saw people just deleting/overwriting historic information about the 1992-2009 show, and they just putting new info in carelessly and supposedly don't care about the shows historic past!.Loserjay10 (talk) 13:17, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

text: As an aside, I've some thoughts on the merger. Rather than trying to deal with "tenures" and separate history sections, why not just write it as per how the public will perceive it? Simply put, Leno left and the "Jay Leno" version of the series was effectively cancelled. After the O'Brien run, Leno's Tonight Show was revived to resume broadcast. Thus, the history might unfold as "Everything before the cancellation", "Jay leaves" (outlining the O'Brien events directly relating to Leno, as opposed to recapping all aspects of it), and "Leno resumes". (Titles arbitrary, for illustrative purposes only.) Likewise, details about the set, studio, and so on should be treated chronologically instead of as separate sections, just as we would do for any other series that changes settings, cast, and the like. In a nutshell, write it as a single show that ended and then was renewed unexpectedly. --Ckatzchatspy 22:13, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

text: The only part that required an admin was the page move. Once the content is merged, this page can be redirected to the main article. (We wouldn't delete it as that would interfere with access to the contribution history.) --Ckatzchatspy 22:22, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Titlecard 

message: In the last week, The Tonight Show has slipped behind Letterman to finish third place in the timeslot. Also, apparently Leno has also taken a hit this week from the premiere of "Conan" as according to TV By the Numbers, The Tonight Show lost 900,000 viewers - mainly in the 18-49 demographic - to TBS and O'Brien, and with O'Brien taking the lead in ratings the past two nights, The Tonight Show is now in fourth place.

message: Further up this page is a discussion thread from 2010 about whether Fallon ever guest hosted Tonight. Was this ever confirmed?

thread_title:  Fallon as guest host 

message: I read, "Notably, these ratings were significantly less in the key 18–49 demographic than Conan O'Brien's had been at the same period during his tenure." This sentence is not specific enough, and Conan's demo after the honeymoon effect wasn't that much higher than Jay's return. The difference was small. If we are going to keep this sentence, then why not include that Conan's ratings during his tenure were substantially lower than Jay's (even before the Jay Leno Show started)?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.169.1.46 (talk) 15:07, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

three references are made to the show being "filmed."   The Tonight Show with Jay Leno was never recorded on movie film; it was recorded on videotape.  For the sake of accuracy, I would like to make this minor correction (simply replacing "filmed" with "taped").

message: A number of sources, including this New York Times article, mention a New York Post article from February 11, 1991, "There Goes Johnny", which was later to have been discovered to be a plant to persuade Johnny Carson to retire and to pass the show to Leno.
