Seinfeld to Replace Conan O’Brien?

seinfeldSuperman The network’s denying it, but don’t they always deny things like this?

Word around town is that the NBC suits, unhappy with the 50% drop in ratings over the past year, are ready to replace Conan O’Brien.

And the name that keeps coming up as a possible replacement: Jerry Seinfeld.

The newly crowned King of Late Night, David Letterman, must be crapping his pants over this one.

It reminds me of another guy that did an talk show, does anyone remember Dennis Miller? His talk show failed too, because middle america didn’t get him.

Kimmell rules late night……..
