Conan O'Brien's Ratings Drop - Considerably!
Filed under: TV News > Conan O'Brien
After Monday night's triumphant debut, people may have taken the criticism to heart, because ratings for Conan O'Brien fell 30% with "a 5.0 household rating and 12 share."
It's still better than Jay Leno was doing on The Tonight Show towards the end of his run.
Maybe people were just tired from staying up the night before?

wow that sucks for him!!!!!!
We were all too busy celebrating the Pens first victory in the series over Detriot.
Pittsburgh= G20
Detroit= GM…
When big sports games slow down, his ratings will go back up. This happens every year with shows around NBA Finals and Stanley Cup time. AND HATERS OF CONAN CAN SUCK IT. CONAN ROCKS!
I enjoyed the first show a lot for the most part..I hope he hits his stride, love him
I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Whatever Conan is hilarious…. I hope he does well.
i didnt tivo if i record does that count towards ratings?
I thought last nights show was great!
He is wayyyyyy better then leno!
leno is the worst interviewer.
Coco Rocks!
I though last nights show was great!
Coco rocks! he is my fav.
leno is the worst interviewer ever~awkward.
He is so much better than Leno ever was
You rock CoCo Christopher!!!
Sorry I think its Coman himself. Who wants to stay up to look at his huge ass head.
Conan was really bad. Yes, I did watch the first night. But I couldn't watch the second night. This guy is a BORE. The ratings will continue to drop. Look for Letterman to start doing better than him.
conan is great
Conan's awesome, the show wasn't bad. It was definitely better than any episode of Jay Leno I ever saw. You can tell he's still a little nervous. Once enough time goes by he'll get into his routine and start doing more bits and jokes that made his old show so great.
But without a doubt, Craig Ferguson is the best late night talk show host…
Still not as big as the fall your last book took after the relatives stopped buying it.
LET TRUTH BE HEARD ASS SHATS! LISTEN UP FAT MARIO SINCE YOU DIDNT BELIEVE ME IN ALL THE "BATTLES" YOU'VE LOST. DRUM ROLL!!!!!! CONAN IS LAME AND BOOORRRING! HE STANDS THERE LIKE A TOOTHPICK. HE SPEWS 1950'S HUMOR EVEN WORSE THAN JOHNNY CARSON. THE LAST PERSON TO CHOOSE IS CONAN O'BRIEN. DAMN I SHUD WORK FOR THE NETWORK, I'D FIRE HIM ASAP. THEN I GET RID OF FATSO MARIO. THE FUN PART OF THE JOB..
Conans excellent - he still uses a lot of his humor from late show. The Tom hanks meteor skit was high-larious.
"Keep Cool My Babies!" His ratings will rise.
Maby he lost ratings cuz hes not as funny as Jay.. Just my oppinion
that sucks because last night's show was better than the first. how can people not love coco chistopher?!?
Not surprising, people were curious about his first show. I have to say that I think he will eventually tank. Leno attracted an older audience. I can't see Conan keeping many of those viewers.
That's too bad, he was considerably funnier last night. The skits were hilarious - Rodeo Rd.
Conan's 2nd night was even better than his first… TEAM CONESIE!!!!!!
Woooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I liked the show, it was very funny when he tried all those wigs haha + Green Day!!
I was great but yeah I got tired for stay up so late and wake up 6 in the morning ups!
Everyone watched the first show only to see Pearl Jam…
His show last night was way better than the previous night. He'll continue to improve til he fits the tonight show mold better but i hope he keeps his humor in it. Conan rocks
Of course more people turned in to watch his first show just to see what it would be like. Ratings will probably drop even more until he has what he will have for viewers everynight. I tuned in to watch him monday but then went back to Letterman last night. I'll continue to watch Letterman unless it's a rerun then I'll tune into Conan but he's not really for me.
he'll be fine… leno & his jokes were for older people, conan's more in with the younger crowd. yeah the demographic are just switching around but i think he'll still come out on top in the end. lettermam is a bore, so are all the other late night show hosts. old farts just gotta get used to him because he's not going anywhere.
that skit on rodeo road was great, conan can do no wrong in my book.
CONAN ROCKS!
This guy sucks. His nasally whine, he is not funny, just a big douche.
Poor Johnny Carson is spinning in the grave.
i think conan's doing a great job! love you coco!
conan RULES!!!
Conan Christopher is A-dorable. He will do just fine because he is so clever and funny. Yesterday's show was even funnier than the first one. Keep up the good work Coco, we love you!
Conan will NEVER EVER have the ratings Jay did. He is too much about himself.
Wait and see … Leno will still draw viewers with the new 10 pm slot.
His ratings will continue to drop. He doesn't have the natural comic talent of Leno. After a month, NBC will crying…"What have we done?"
Don't believe this. I never watched Jay…I have not missed one night of Co-Co…so yeah no, not believing this crunk.
Conan rocks.
Leno blow ass chunks… I find myself TiVo-ing celebrities no matter what show they happen to be on. Regis, Ellen, David, Conan, but fucking Leno was the worst one to watch… his interviewing styles such ass monkey chunks. Thank god he's finally GONE!!! BWA! HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!!HA!!!HA!!!!HA!!!!!!!
I don´t have anything against Conan, I just don´t like his style…kind of opinion!
Anyway, I think people should not compare him to Jay… the are so different!
Well, talking for myself, I'm so sorry, but The Tonigth Show for me is OVER!
He'll never make it!
Conan is boring because he's obsessed with himself and how funny he thinks he is. Get over yourself dude. Stop showing us film clips of you doing irritating things. Let Andy Richter say something more than "yes boss" and get some guests on and let them talk. Or else bring on Jimmy Fallon who's better now than you ever were.
