This is small and unworthy of me, but I can’t help but hope that Jay Leno’s new prime time show fails to deliver. I’m a drama writer, and I hope to do television again someday. When NBC does away with five hours of dramas it’s a bad day for television writers.
Cable may be our only salvation, and at least on cable you can be a niche show that finds it’s audience even if that audience is small by network standards.
