It might have something to do with his time slot. After midnight he might be able to get away more vulgar words or topics that he can't at his current time slot.

I doubt this is a "Jay" move. It's more of an NBC trying to save a buck, which they did, at the expense of two funny guys careers.

But the affiliates were complaining about Jay, not Conan. If they took his show away, then he would have to go somewhere. He could have retired like he was supposed to do...

I miss Conan on The Late Show.
