GROSS: Tell that to Conan O’Brien.

BIANCULLI: Yeah, exactly, exactly. That is such a big whoa. And, you know, if you thought that his leaving “The Tonight Show” and then sort of bringing it to primetime under another name was a little bit disingenuous or not being a team player, what about that admission?
