Conan's "Tonight" contract doesn't guarantee him the 11:35 timeslot
Conan O'Brien's people never asked for an 11:35 timeslot guarantee, according to TMZ. He's only entitled to host "The Tonight Show." In contrast, Leno's contract does specify state that he would host a 10 o'clock show, so he must negotiate a new deal. TMZ says that Conan will argue that there is an "implied" guarantee to host an 11:35 show, but his claim is more tenuous as a result. PLUS: Conan could overcome the no 11:35 timeslot guarantee in court.
What Conan can learn from past TV feuds
For instance, he can learn from the Letterman vs. Leno feud. Dave, says Jason Rehel, "broke the late-night mould and created a fortress of viewers that's looking pretty good right now. Lesson No. 1 for Coco: Leno might kill you (on NBC), but the fight can only make you stronger and more popular (among the people who love you anyway)."
