This is for the 7 of you who are up at 1:30 am and actually watch the show: Carson Daly is moving his Last Call show from New York to Los Angeles for the 5th season this fall. Which makes sense, since many of the celebs the show would want are on the west coast and not in NY. Daly will broadcast from the NBC Burbank studios.
Now Conan is the only NBC late night host based in NY. I wonder if he'll also move to L.A. when he takes over the Tonight Show in 2009, or will NBC want to keep him in NY to keep a late night presence (bsides SNL) there?

I've watched Carson's show a couple times, and both times I've been left wondering, how did this guy get a talk show? He never seems very comfortable with guests, he's not particularly funny or charismatic in any extraordinary way, and his audience never seems to really get into the show. At first when I noticed that he brings out the guests within the first couple minutes of the show without a long monologue, I thought that was a little creative. Now I realize that they do this because Carson lacks personality.
Which kinda makes me wonder why they didn't tap him over Conan O'Brien to helm Late Night when Jay Leno, who also lacks personality, leaves in 2009.

When the story about Conan taking over the Tonight Show in 2009 came out, there was a video clip of his old sidekick Andy Richter and he said Conan told him something about his wife not knowing if she would like to move move to LA.
Mayor Bloomberg wants the Tonight Show to return to NYC, but I doubt it will.

Two things:
that's the worst photograph ever of Carson Daly
and
"Mayor Bloomberg wants" is the funniest thing I've heard all day. He reminds me of Veruca Salt, and I'm not talking about Louise Post and Nina Gordon.
