Leno's Ratings Rising
/As NBC gets ready to kick Jay Leno to the curb, his ratings continue to rise.
In numbers for the second quarter, The “Tonight Show With Jay Leno” was easily the top-rated hour in latenight.
ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” came in second in key demos for a second straight quarter in its new, earlier timeslot.
As for David Letterman on CBS? He appears to be headed in the wrong direction.
The “Late Show” logged one of its weakest quarterly performances on record. The program was down from last year in virtually every category except adults 50 and older.
Maybe Leno could replace Letterman over at CBS. It would be like deja vu all over again.
