AHAHAHAH damn I love Conando!

I'm really curious how his contract is written, because they never took the Tonight Show away from him, they just planned on moving it's time slot.

Lots of Conan making jokes about NBC

Conan is the man. This NBC bullshit is ridiculous. If Conan decided to leave NBC in this mess they would lose SOOOO many viewers. Yeah Leno is really popular and whatnot, but not so much with the younger crowd. People of this younger generation love Conan and Richter.

apparently everyone loves fallon too. which i also dont get. hes not funny at all. he cant even deliver a joke without giggling at the camera, which has now become his thing and i hate it. hes terrible. not as bad as leno, but still terrible. leno is just unfunny.

Conan has invited Howard Stern to appear on the show, but Howard wasn't sure if he was gonna do it. Personally, I hope he goes on there and rips Leno apart. Supposedly Patton Oswalt ripped Leno too, but I didn't hear the audio of that.

i cant wait. conan is going to just tear shit up while he is still there.

they said that Letterman also invited Conan to his show. Imagine him and stern both on letterman. Haha that would be great. Howard said he wouldnt go on there with them though.

I hope he does do Conans show next week though.

Latest rumor is that Leno has already signed a contract returning to The Tonight Show and that Conan's last episode is January 22nd.

Well done, NBC. You've made numerous attempts to can Conan since he started work on your network, and now you've done it in the most round-about way possible.

Beh.

This was on Conan last night and I thought it was funny:

Thats even bigger bullshit that he doesn't hold the rights to his bits.

Here's the thing about the characters and bits.

First off, I'm pretty sure Triumph is not owned by Conan or NBC. He's Robert Smigel's property. He even used Triumph in his own short-lived TV Funhouse show on Comedy Central.

Second, it's not a done deal about NBC owning his characters. They made concede to just giving him the rights to do them if it means they get rid of him easier.

Lastly, and most importantly, look at what Letterman did when he left Late Night...he basically just renamed his comedy bits and there's never been any trouble over it. So I'd expect to see "In The Year 4,000," The Masturbating Polar Bear, Vomiting Gonzo, and the UPS Pope.

WHAT ABOUT THE CHUCK NORRIS LEVER!

SHIT Walker is owned by NBC Universal.

well when it was Late Night it was "In the year 2000".... even after the year 2000.... which made it even more hilarious.
Also, I didn't think the masturbating bear ever made it to the Tonight Show because NBC wouldn't let him put it on that early.

Either way, he's a great writer and has a lot of great writer friends (including smigel) that I'm sure they could come up with new bits.... I just thought it was bullshit that NBC would pull that crap and say he couldn't use his own material.

Yeah, it's complete douchebaggery. But you're right, they'll come up with lots of great new bits. And like the Masturbating Bear, a lot of the original Late Night characters never made it to the Tonight Show, so no huge loss.



Hahaha...yeah. He ought to do one this week while he still can.

Still no word about who owns LaBamba though.

AHAHA, oh my god. I haven't seen that one since it aired. The one with the kid falling is my second favorite next to...

hahahah yeah that one is my favorite too... so many things don't make sense in it

AHAHAHAAAA!!! i remember both of those when they first aired and they both killed me. killed me.

I'm watching Conan from last night and it is fucking hilarious. They showed this animation from Hong Kong that explains the entire debacle and it had Conan turning into tthe Incredible Hulk beating everyone up:





Then Norm came out and I loved it.
