Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
Word. His Neil Young "Pant's on the ground" bit was funny as hell-
His monologues are still a bit awkward though.Comment

(I'm one of the many new people tunign in this week to see what he'll say). I did watch/like him every night back around 2 years ago.Comment

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
Exactly. That ending was a farewell to Conan. Anything else would have sold him short.
I would like to know how long Leno had to figure out his niche at Tonight Show. To adjust to something that he obviously wanted so badly takes time. I agree with you, though, that NBC is the real enemy here. But I have a feeling that Leno didn't help.Comment

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
The final segment was truly a nuke the fridge moment.
What a terrible way to go out after a classy performance by Neil Young. While I always want MORE COWBELL and it was cool to see Harper, ZZ, and Beck join in, Conan was better off being in the spotlight in the final segment instead of giving it to Ferrell.
Also how in the world could you not have Triumph The Insult Comic Dog on the last show?
I like Conan but he's a big reason why the Tonight Show bombed. He removed the edge from his program and played it safe. Hey this reminds me of Leno .....Comment

Also, I didn't know he could play guitar.
If it makes you feel any better, Weinberg and company played something from the White Stripes. I forget what it was.Originally posted by DaImmaculateONeHow many brothers does Sub-zero running around in his clothing? No one can seem to kill the right one.Comment

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
I think Conan's only crime in this was that he wasn't willing to completely and totally change his style to accommodate the Leno crowd. Granted he got rid of some characters, but the show definitely had a completely different feel from when Leno was host.
It also doesn't help that instead of being on after The Colbert Report he was now on during it. I would imagine those two shows fought for viewers.
*remembers the 07 Writer's Strike with the Conan, Colbert, Stewart "feud"*
Comedy gold. In fact, that strike was Conan at his best. There is no way Leno's show could be half that entertaining without writers.Member: OS Uni Snob Association | Twitter: @MyNameIsJesseG | #WT4M | #WatchTheWorldBurn

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
Get that **** out of here, dude. You clearly aren't on the same page as everyone else.
Oh, nevermind. I see that you really don't have any idea what you're talking about. Are you honestly going to try to base your opinion of Conan on one show that wasn't meant to be funny? Give me a break, dude.
It's a farewell song. They always played it at the end of dances at my school. Always. I think Conan probably wanted to go out to that.
Also, I didn't know he could play guitar.

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
what i miss from the old late night isn't so much his "characters" but when he goes out and films on location and does comedy bits... remember the "Old Time Baseball" skit, or what about him going out during the NYC transit strike, or the time he went to Montreal? Those were comedy gold.Comment

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
The band played Seven Nation Army tonight. Jack and Meg played "We Are Going To Be Friends" on Conan's last Late Night show.Helen: Everyone's special, Dash.
Dash: [muttering] Which is another way of saying no one is.Comment

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
What I find funny is how so many of you guys are calling Conan classy for not taking parting shots but pretty much rejoiced anytime he threw any comedy mud the past couple of weeks.
Come on with this stuff man... the dude will be back on the air soon.Comment

Re: Conan's Reign Begins - The Tonight Show
Remember on Conan's 10th Anniv. Even Mr. T agreed it took him 3 years to get funny after he gave him a gold chain with a 7 on it.
Conan's a funny guy...I just don't think the grandma's that love Leno like his style of comedy.- The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.Comment
