Who hosted the tonight show before leno and after Carson?

Johnny Carson never did "reruns" of his shows; every show was new and fresh. Carson took plenty of vacations, but whenever he was away, one of a number of "guest hosts" would take the big seat. Jay Leno was one; Don Rickles and actress Joan Rivers were others. When Carson announced his impending retirement, NBC tried a number of different people who had guest-hosted the Tonight Show, and settled on Leno pretty quickly. So the straight answer would be "There were no permanent hosts of the Tonight Show between Carson and Leno." My complaint with Leno is that when he took over, he "pulled up the ladder behind him", and never allowed anybody else to guest-host the show, and never allowed new talent a chance to develop their own styles. Like a professor who refused to teach, he tried - intentionally or not - to block any competition from developing.

How old is Jay Leno?

Jay Leno made his debut as the host of the Tonight Show on May 25, 1992. He served in that role until May 29, 2009, when he was briefly succeeded by Conan O'Brien. That did not work out, and Leno returned as Tonight Show host on March 1, 2010. Despite having top ratings amongst all other late-night talk shows, NBC has announced that Jay Leno will be replaced by Jimmy Fallon in 2014. Leno's final show as host will be on February 6, 2014. Thus in total, Leno has been the host for about 21 years.

Why is Conan O'Brien banned on tv?

*Update: 01/21/2010: After a lot of negotiating Conan has agreed to leave NBC in an agreement signed at about 1am PST today. Conan is reportadly getting about $32 Million and about $12 Million for his staff. Jay Leno will take over his old show at the 11:35pm time slot. * Several news agencies have reported on 01/15/2010 that Jay Leno will be taking over the Tonight Show, again. Conan O'Brien is reportedly leaving NBC for good, his legal team is working on a deal to have NBC pay O'Brien a large settlement, and make him available to work on any other network. While O'Brien leaving has been confirmed by many sources, NBC CEO Jeff Zucker is reportedly trying to uphold O'Brien's contract by keeping him off the air for the next 3.5 years, not only off NBC, but off any other network(s) as well. Many other night hosts including David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel, Creg Ferguson, even Rosie O'Donnell, have been vocal about the NBC fiasco. Jimmy Kimmel appeared on The Jay Leno Show with the following joke/statement: "I think the best prank I ever pulled was I told a guy once that five years from now I'm gonna give you my show, and then when the five years came, I gave it to him, and then took it back almost instantly. It was hilarious." However, this NBC feud has been reported as more of an attributing fault of Jeff Zucker, rather than Jay Leno's. Several news articles state that Jeff Zucker's Wikipedia page has been under constant vandalism state by Conan fans, who keep stating that Zucker died. ---- * Conan will be leaving on the 22nd of January 2010. He wasn't fired, his ratings have been low and NBC said they'd be moving him to a slot after midnight EST. Upset with NBC's actions, Conan has decided to leave. ---- * In detail, at first, NBC pitched O'Brien the possibility that the Tonight Show would be airing half an hour later because of his low ratings as a starting host. O'Brien refused to consider such terms, henceforth NBC used that instance of disobedience as a reason for the statement of his unwillingness to uphold his contract and set the cancellation date for O'Brien's role in the Tonight Show (01/22/10).
