TMZ is saying the deal to put Leno back at 10:35 for an hour has been agreed to by both sides.

Regarding the Colbert Demographic... how long does everything think his schtick will last? I loved watching the show for the first couple of years, but I grew tired of it. It won't be long lasting like The Daily Show as it is all gimmick based, so really, how much longer for Colbert?

Colbert has already had a significant ratings drop after the election, and hasn't seen the same numbers since.

Conan's last show will be next Friday, January 22nd.

I had the same thoughts when he first came on.  I thought it would grow old quickly.  But I'm liking that show more and more as time goes along.  I think The Daily Show has slipped below it.  Part of that could be that they've lost some great talent over the years such as Colbert, Carell, Helms and Corddry.  That's hard to replace.

The downfall of Colbert will be backlash from oversaturation.  There's already a bit of a backlash over the coverage he's getting for the US Speed Skating team, the edition of Newsweek, etc.  However I think his show is consistently the funniest thing on TV at any time on any channel.

You need to check this video out if you missed it.  Jimmy Kimmel was on Jay Leno and absolutely torched him.
