There’s a new rumors in circulation which states that late night talk show host, Jay Leno will be retiring from The Tonight Show next spring.
According to a pair of high level NBC executives say the network is concerned that Jimmy Kimmel’s move to 11:35 p.m. on ABC is sucking up all the younger late-night viewers – and that Jimmy Fallon should therefore be installed as Tonight Show host before it’s too late.
According to the report, Leno would announce in May that he is stepping down from the coveted spot when his contract is up at the end of the 2013-2014 television season. Fallon would then premiere with a “soft launch” during the summer of 2014 before a formal fall debut.
