Yeah, bonus answers. Although I was just joking when I punched in the 2nd one. I forgot he guest hosted and wasn't actually expecting to get anything.

@bunny: insulting people is wrong, but if you're going to, at least spell the insult correctly. your first insult has an "o" not an "e." ps. don't pledge usa if you're going to act like that, please.

I only missed Jack Lescoulie and Al "Jazzbo" Collins. There's no way I ever would have gotten those.

For prosperity the bonus answers are...Conan O'Brien, Grouch Marx, Mort Sahl, Joey Bishop, Joan Rivers, John Davidson, Bob Newhart, David Brenner, Gary Shandling, David Letterman and Jerry Lewis. I image that come June 1st Conan will be bumped up from bonus answer to regular answer.

I'm gonna miss Leno's economy jokes: the economy is so bad that I saw Emeril open a can of Chef Boyardee; the economy is so bad that Wolfgang Puck uses a George Foreman grill; the economy is so bad that Wolverine had to take a 2nd job at Fantastic Sams...

And now with Leno's prime-time show getting axed and going back to late night, I can't wait to see how the shows get rearranged more than a month from now. Maybe this quiz will get an update by then.

Also, Jay Leno should say 2010-present and Conan O'Brien 2009-2010. He didn't host an entire year but he did host in both 2009 and 2010.

Interesting fact: Joey Bishop actually hosted more episodes of "The Tonight Show" than Conan O'Brien.
