After hoisting a ton of zingers in NBC’s direction last week following the network’s decision to replace him with Jimmy Fallon next year, Jay Leno spent Monday and Tuesday night’s shows this week laying off his network and not mentioning them, despite having plenty of opportunities to squeeze in potshots. But on last night’s show, Leno returned to making jokes about NBC, even though these jokes are offending his boss for some reason. Here’s what Leno said about his longtime network in last night’s monologue:
“Folks, listen to this. Monday night, the primetime shows The Voice and Revolution moved NBC to the number two position. You know what that means? Between Easter and Passover, this is truly the season of miracles. We’re number two!â€â€œI’ve been saying for the last week that NBC is a big number two.â€â€T-Mobile announced yesterday they are doing away with contracts. Apparently they got the idea from NBC.â€
