Jay Leno to end run at "Tonight Show" on May 29

By Paul Thomasch

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Comedian Jay Leno will make his last appearance as host of NBC's "The Tonight Show" next May 29, setting the stage for Conan O'Brien to replace him on America's top late-night TV show on June 1, the network said on Monday.

But even as they announced the exact date of Leno's long-planned 2009 departure, NBC executives said they were looking for ways to keep him at the General Electric Co.-owned network in a role other than as a late-night host.

"We're still talking to Jay about staying within NBC Universal," said Marc Graboff, a co-chairman of NBC Entertainment. "We've made our decision, we're happy with it and were very confident 'The Tonight Show' will continue to be dominant."
