Just when everyone thought that Jay Leno is retiring from TV late night and leaving NBC studios, it seems that Leno changed his mind and the iconic talk show host isn’t leaving anytime soon!!!

NBC announced they will give Leno a deal where he can appear on NBC at the 10 p.m. hour. They also gave Leno a better pay deal as well. Leno is reportedly to make $40 to $50 million a year for his 10:00 p.m. slot. He’ll be able to buy more cars and motorcycles!!!

Jay Leno’s move will be similar to how he usually have his shows. You know, the usual making fun of news reports, interviews with two celebrities and a musical guest. Jimmy Fallon will take over Conan O’ Brien when Conan moves to an earlier hour on March 4th.

Jay will never retire, he’ll be doing late night ’til the day he dies. What a copout!!!! I don’t like Jay Leno that much and I was hoping that he would be gone but nope. I think Conan’s the best late night host, I watch Conan all the time. Conan makes me laugh, Jay doesn’t.

EDIT TO ADD: On a side note, the only reason NBC is paying Leno more is that they are doing whatever it takes to make him stay at NBC. NBC doesn’t want him to leave.
