Who likes Jay Leno?
 
So this guy makes like $25 million a year for the Tonight Show, another couple million doing standup. He averages over 5 million viewers a night according to recent ratings.

Obviously a ton of people love him, but who are they? Do they just not admit it because its apparently not cool?

Edit: If you don't mind, list your age (or age range) in your post.

I like Jay Leno too. Given a choice between him and Letterman, I'd definitely pick Leno.

Ugh, I have always wondered this too. IMO, he is horribly unfunny, but is saved by decent writers. Conan is much much funnier, but doesn't have the same caliber of writers.

Me too. Letterman is so shticky. It gets old quick.

Plus Jaywalking really makes me laugh.

Leno should not have guests, and just do the corny but funny opening monologue, jaywalking, and headlines.

I don't find Leno funny at all. I used to watch Carson all of the time, Letterman in his prime, and to me Leno is just not in the same league.

About the only positive thing I can say about him is that at least he is tolerable (unlike O'Brien and Kimmel)

Well, I don't think we will get much argument that Leno is a terrible interviewer.
