Leno set to return to 'Tonight Show'

Oh. Boy. Real. News. ::dripping sarcasm::

Via an e-mail alert:

Jay Leno is set to return to "The Tonight Show" at 11:35 p.m. unless Conan O'Brien has a last-minute change of heart about hosting the show in a later time period.

Yeah, whatever. I never watched to begin with.

UPDATE (h/t: Clancy):

It seems likely that Leno will end up returning to The Tonight Show where he earned the title of the King of Late Night, while O’Brien’s representatives will negotiate a settlement for the 46-year-old comedian to leave the network. It also seems certain that the settlement will involve some sort of compromise that prevents O’Brien from immediately jumping to the competition. Late Night with Jimmy Fallon will continue to air at 12:30 p.m.
