Bye Jay, welcome Jimmy and hello Seth! Jay Leno will leave his chair on the Tonight Show, in which Jimmy Fallon will take over.
After 22 years, Leno will exit The Tonight Show on February 6th just prior to NBC's coverage of the 2014 Winter Olympics. On February 23rd, it is believed Jimmy Fallon will take over and debut The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and Fallon's successor SNL star Seth Meyers will take Fallon's spot at the Late Show.
TV Line states that NBC Chairman Robert Greenblatt recently told reporters he hopes Leno will “still be a presence” on the network after February.
Good luck to all!
