Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

The Tonight Show under Leno became a case study in ratings dominance over critical respect — he consistently crushed Letterman while being mocked by comedy insiders.

Memorable

The 2010 Conan O'Brien fiasco remains one of television's messiest public divorces; Leno reclaimed his desk after just seven months.
