The Tonight Show with Jay Leno is back
Both enterprises have lost a number of younger audience members to cable channels such as Comedy Central and The Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, whose reruns of Family Guy are king of late night amongst the 18-35 year old set. It was Jay Leno's very loyal older fan base of 55 year old male and female watchers that have brought the show back to its old ratings glory days. At this time, nearly eighty-two percent of Jay's audience has returned, while it looks to continue building in the future.
NBC is keeping low key about Jay's recent ratings success until he has his audience back by more than one hundred percent. At this time, the gap between The Tonight Show and The Late Show is considerably smaller than it was before Jay left.

he's just lucky he didn't have himself as a 10pm lead-in, because his rating at 11:35pm would have been horrible.

Jay just quietly draws an audience. Conan's fans, such that they are, love to whine, but never bothered to watch his show much. Order has been restored.

Of course he does. People don't want to watch Letterman because he's an obnoxious dick.
