CoJay Leno'Brien?
Hell, start your own American version of Top Gear. You've already nicked "Star in a Reasonably Priced Car", and you would make a pretty good stateside version of Jeremy Clarkson. You could do a 15 year run of all new episodes just by driving the cars you already own.
Eh... I don't know. I just think that after so many years of doing such a good job, you'd be happy to turn the show over to its rightful heir, and give him a shot at making it his own. Kind of like Conan is doing for (ugh...) Jimmy Fallon.
And we just got Andy Richter back. DAMN.

I think the car show is a great idea. He's entertaining enough as a host, he loves cars and has a wealth of knowledge about them.
I never have found Leno that funny...
While I think he should produce a stateside Top Gear, Leno is no Jeremy Clarkson. I'm not sure there is an American equivalent to be honest.
Let's face it, the English can produce bastards that are also charming - us yanks just can't.
Disagree, atroxi: Craig Kilborn
I forgot about Kilborn. He took quite a while to grow on me...then he left CBS. Where is he now?
I agree, Leno is terribly over-rated...bordering on just not funny at all. Call me crazy, but who says we need another damn lame late night talk show anyway?? Put on some old "Hill Street Blues" or "West Wing" re-runs and let us actually enjoy bedtime.
You're absolutely right, atroxi. I just think he'd be a reasonably decent approximation, since there can only be one Clarkson.
Kimmel gave it to him last night. On Leno's own show, he literally said "We've got children. You have cars. You have $800 million. You don't have to do ANYTHING. Let people keep their shows."
