Jay Leno and the cast of The Jersey Shore? Yep. You heard that right.
Leno will also welcome American Olympians Apolo Anton Ohno, Shaun White and Lindsey Vonn to the program as well in his first few weeks back. It was also announced that stars such as Dakota Fanning, Kim Kardashian, Jamie Foxx and Morgan Freeman have been booked for Leno's first two weeks back in his old stomping grounds.
The ratings for Leno's primetime experiment The Jay Leno Show were down throughout the show's short run and Conan O'Brien's ratings with The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien were down compared to Leno's numbers as well, except for his final week on the show where O'Brien's popularity skyrocketed.

This is something that really pisses me off. Leno was getting routinely beaten by Letterman when he first took over the Tonight Show, and only overcame that by having the luck of being the first person to interview Hugh Grant after the hooker incident in LA. That was either two or three years into Leno's run. NBC allowed him to grow into the job, but they wouldn't give Conan the same chance? Not to mention the fact that they put Leno in an awkward position by publicly announcing a resignation in 5 years plan back in 2004, just so they could keep Conan. Leno may come off as a hypocrite, but he was forced out of a job he was excelling at. On the other hand, Conan was screwed out of a job he wasn't allowed to really grow into. Southland, a show that NBC cancelled to make room for Leno, will be premiering its somewhat second season on TNT in a few weeks. Meanwhile, NBC's programming still sucks.
