I think Conan ('s Old Show) Is SUCKTASTIC!!!!
Edited on Tue Mar-03-09 01:30 PM by MadBadger
I just had to say it. Dude sucks. His monologues arent all that funny. His skits are just stupid, see anything with tastic in it. His funny things only happen once in awhile, like In the Year 2000, or anything with triumph. He tried to steal headlines from Leno, but his were stupid because they were all fake.

THe only thing Conan's got goin for him is Max and the sickest latenight band ever.

Sorry Conan, you suck...you may be better than Jimmy Fallon, but so could a one-legged dog (Id pick something better, but its the line that just passed)

1. I like Conan, but I can see your point...

I liked his show, his skits mostly.

The other thing he had going for him was Andy Richter.

3. I liked his show the most
It never took itself seriously, and it was fun to watch him being a kid. Like throwing snowballs at Peter Jennings' office window

13. I loved the one from a few years back, wnen he went to Canada
and stood at the border crossing, wearing a Mountie suit and throwing snowballs around. I really like Conan a lot.

4. I thought Conan's improv skits were hilarious
Cases in point:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOjX-JIGsMc
http://www.hulu.com/watch/58213/late-night-with-conan-obrien-birdwatching

But the monologues were, as you say, not good. They all fell flat and his only fallback was joking about how terrible the previous joke was.

5. I'm sure Conan feels the same about you.
Actually, probably not.

His skits are--or at least were--hilarious to me. Unfortunately given that I can no longer stay up to 1:00 am every night, I haven't watched much in a while, but plan on watching when he moves to 11:30.

12. Conan could be funny at times, but I never really 'got' his humor
Now, he and Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are good friends, and I really like Stewart and Colbert.

So, :shrug: I've never gotten through an entire Conan show, though.
