Was Jay's manager that much of a psycho?

It's fine, I guess, and it definitely screams TV movie. Higgins is actually pretty great as Letterman, but Roebuck as Leno, uh, not so much.

Not terrible, considering its made for TV. Main complaints are that it made Jay Leno too likeable, Letterman too modest, and villainized Leno's agent even more than she probably deserves (Though Kathy Bates definitely kicks ass in the role). John Michael Higgins' Lettterman impression is not too bad, but whatshisname sounds more like Adam Sandler than Jay Leno. It's got me intrigued, and I'm going to look into the book. I understand that its a more factual, less dramatacized telling of events.

A good movie about what happened behind the scenes of Jay Leno getting the Tonight Show over David Letterman.

Okay, it's a TV movie, so it's not great. But after reading the book, I was curious to see it...I think it's a pretty decent adaptation. The guy who plays Leno is a little wooden (and his face...a little plastic), but John Michael Higgins, despite Letterman's many years of protestations that "that guy doesn't look anything like me!", gets his imitation pretty spot-on if you ask me. And Kathy Bates is freakin' awesome. (If you read the book, yes, the person she played really was that psycho.)
