The big question, if Jay Leno does indeed go over to ABC when his contract is up with NBC, is what will happen to Jimmy Kimmel? His show has been increasing in ratings and the late night talk show with the most buzz right now, and even if they were to cancel
Nightline (a definite possibility), then Kimmel would still be pushed to 12:35 from his 12:05 start. Maybe 30 minutes isn't a lot when you're talking about the age of the universe, but it's a big leap in late night TV.
Kimmel is aware of this, and besides
asking questions at the Television Critics Association press conference (as a member of the media), Kimmel is also trying to convince Leno not to come over to his channel. Last Friday he told Leno that he shouldn't come on over to ABC because it's filled with bees, they pay him in Disney dollars (which you can only spend at the theme parks), and every single day his car is keyed.
Leno calls the rumors of him going to ABC "ridiculous." And by ridiculous he means "I'll do it if I'm bored and they want to pay me a ton of money."

I thought I'd get this in before we get too far away from the
Republican National Convention.
Conan O'Brien sent Triumph The Insult Comic Dog to St. Paul last week to cover the convention, and as usual the results are hilarious. He manages to get an interview with CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. Well, at first Cooper just sends him a note from across the convention hall (I won't spoil for you what the note says) but Triumph finally gets a face-to-face interview with Cooper, where he lays down an awesome dig at MSNBC's Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews that Cooper laughs at (Cooper should be looking at Triumph during the interview but keeps looking at Robert Smigel instead).
Triumph also gets Wolf Blitzer. Actually, Wolf doesn't talk to Triumph, but that doesn't stop the dog from thanking Blitzer for keeping his porn name even after he got into journalism. There's also a mention of
Law and Order, thanks to Fred Thompson, and he screams to Greta van Susteren and other pundits and hosts.
After the jump is the video (in two parts).

Jay Leno has been getting some heat for refusing to have Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides on his show after having Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on many times, and now he's getting a, um, different kind of heat from another person in the race...porn star Mary Carey.
The buxom woman wants equal time on Leno's show, but Leno hasn't made any comment about it yet. Carey says that she is a very popular search term on the web, so that proves her popularity. Of course, how many of those people are in California? She says "our polling results have shown my name to be more recognizable than any other candidate in the race." I doubt her name is more known than Ahnuld's, but feel free to laugh like Beavis and Butthead when you read the words "polling results." Heh heh heh heh heh.
She ran for Governor in 2003, but this year she got her teeth replaced and got new breast implants.
