The show currently airs five nights a week at 10PM.<\/p>\n<p>The plan would have Leno host a show from 11:35PM to 12:05AM, at which point &#8220;The Tonight Show with Conan O&#8217;Brien&#8221; would take over for an hour.  &#8220;Late Night with Jimmy Fallon&#8221; would then commence at 1:05AM.<\/p>\n<p>Such a move is far from confirmed &#8212; all NBC would say publicly is that it and those behind &#8220;Leno&#8221; are &#8220;committed to working closely&#8230;to find ways to improve performance&#8221; and that &#8220;We remain committed to keeping Conan O\u2019Brien on NBC.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, NBC&#8217;s Thursday admission that &#8220;Leno&#8221; is not providing a satisfying lead-in for local affiliates in its current 10PM slot provided an indication that an overhaul is on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/view.picapp.com\/default.aspx?term=jay leno&#038;iid=6912254\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.picapp.com\/ftp\/Images\/f\/e\/7\/e\/Jay_Leno_Digs_8482.jpg?adImageId=8852559&#038;imageId=6912254\" width=\"380\" height=\"277\"  border=\"0\" alt=\"Jay Leno Digs Peace!\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.pis.picapp.com\/IamProd\/PicAppPIS\/JavaScript\/PisV4.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>NBC Denies Rumors, But &quot;Jay Leno Show&quot;
