Leno: 'Take It, Jimmy'

When Jay Leno ends his show, he thanks his guests and then tells viewers to stay tuned for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Leno used to do the same thing when Conan O'Brien followed him.

Now, when Leno signs off, instead of just shouting, "Jimmy," he says, "Take it, Jimmy!"

I don't think that change is a coincidence.

Leno appears ready, almost eager, to end his long affiliation with NBC.
