TMZ (who broke the Leno primetime cancellation) is now reporting that the comic has signed back onto The Tonight Show. Calls from HollywoodOutbreak.com to NBC have not be returned regarding the Leno’s status. Though, yesterday, Conan O’Brien officially turned down NBC’s solution of splitting the time up between all three of the net’s late night hosts.
HollywoodOutbreak.com’s suggestion? Watch Leno’s primetime show tonight for the announcement.
