As you no doubt recall, the NBC late night debacle ended with Conan O'Brien leaving The Tonight Show and Jay Leno stepping back into his former role. Sides were taken and it became immediately clear that Conan won the hearts and minds of the Internet.
With Conan taking to Twitter (with his small army in tow), Leno is left to return The Tonight Show to its former glory. Despite strong ratings this week, Leno is still facing a backlash from those of us with a penchant for Conan's style and resentment for how the situation was handled.
The overwhelming number of negative tags on Hulu are every indication that there's a huge disconnect between television audiences and web users. It's a rift that could have long-term effects on The Tonight Show's success and Jay Leno's approval ratings.
We'll leave you with a few screenshots of those tags and a viral video spoof of the ad promoting Leno's return.
