Despite the previous down-in-flames fiascos of Joan Rivers, Chevy Chase and Magic Johnson, since this Jay Leno/Conan O'Brien flap first broke, it has been a distinct possibility that Coco would host late-night talk show on Fox.
This is not just idle speculation. In a conference call with reporters on Tuesday, News Corp (which owns Fox) head honcho Rupert Murdoch said of bringing Conan to his network, "We're giving it a lot of thought and a lot of examination."
All the talk for the last few weeks, though, has curiously avoided some central questions: What would a one-hour late-night show on Fox mean for viewers? What would we lose, and what would we gain? Would the trade off be worth it? Let's take a look.
