Trivia:
When Leno does bits at his desk where he will hold up fake products (e.g., "Read the Fine Print" or "Amazon.com's Worst Sellers"), a production assistant named Joey has been seen just off-camera catching the objects that have already been used. He allegedly first got that task because he bet on the Chicago Bears to win Super Bowl XLI. (The Bears lost to the Indianapolis Colts, 29-17.) more
Quotes:

Above all He's ANIMATED!, 17 November 2002
Author: BatStarIndyFreak from UT, USA

For all who say that Dave is better, I have to say he's a STIFF! Every time I've looked at Dave while Jay has been doing reruns all I see is that he stands there like his feet are glued to the stage, and gives a monologue that doesn't even last as long as Jay's do. I find Jay to be much more animated, using spunk to give us some added flavor to the jokes. Dave smiles, Jay smirks. Dave's BORING! I think I've seen 3 top ten's I've enjoyed out of about fifteen total I've seen. I find Jay to be a very professional interviewer, having a blast with each guest. Headlines rock! Jaywalking rocks! Sidewalking rocks! I find GREAT chemistry between Jay and Kev. It will ALWAYS be Jay, NOT Dave.
