A Goodbye That Still Deserves to Be Seen

Tonight, we will say goodbye to one of TV’s most spectacular failures, “The Jay Leno Show.”

But if you are in the Huntington-Charleston area, you won’t even see it at all (unless you watch it/DVR it at 3 a.m. Wednesday) as WSAZ is preempting it for local programming.

I understand WSAZ’s enthusiasm for its latest cycle of “Tri-State’s Biggest Loser,” but as one of the captains of Team Leno, I would be remiss if I didn’t say I think this is wrong. It’s the last show, kids. Throw the guy a bone…

Reports are that it will be a quiet goodbye tonight as Jay does not plan any fanfare. But even still I think we all deserve the right to see it at its regularly scheduled time.

Thank goodness I have another NBC option…
