Jay Leno

Does your dad love Jay Leno? Does your grandma love Jay Leno? Do you take comfort in knowing that Jay Leno’s twenty-two years on NBC are still short of the thirty that Johnny Carson had? Do you realize that an entire generation knows only Leno, and not Johnny Carson, as the Tonight Show host? Do you watch Jay Leno’s Garage? Do you sometimes find yourself thinking it’s not bad? Are you an unapologetic fan of Leno’s shtick, controversy around getting The Tonight Show over David Letterman and getting it back from Conan O’Brien aside? Do you feel mean for writing a snarky blurb about a comedian whose major crime is being an inoffensive, pragmatic businessman instead of being edgy and groundbreaking? Please go over your answers to the preceding questions and give yourself one point for every “Yes.” If you score more than five, you should attend the following event. Thank you.
