There’s Some Dirty Shit Going Down at NBC

So, like, this is pretty fucked up. TMZ is reporting — and no one’s denying — that, after the Olympics, NBC will return their coveted 11:30pm time slot to Jay Leno, essentially giving Conan O’Brien the boot.

Sources say that Conan’s been given a choice: he can leave the network or he can take the midnight-1am time slot. Those sources also say that NBC will not stop Conan from jumping to another network, although legally they have that option.

Conan is rumored to be pissed, as he found out about this decision not much before the rest of the world did. Um, yeah. I would be pissed, too.

I’ve got no idea what NBC’s thinking was behind this move, but it’s pretty dirty to treat your high-profile talent this way. Then again, it wouldn’t be the ugliest thing that’s happened in Hollywood. It’s all business, right?
