Carl Icahn Now Wants ALL Of Lionsgate
Well, it was a pretty funny bit.
Typical mindless Conan humor
We should really be worried about CBS.
Finally, a kettle is calling a pot black.
So Conan’s trick to getting back Jay’s audience is making his bits as lame as Jay’s?
Kinda funny.
That was really horrible, no wonder Conan’s numbers are so bad. NBC should be worried about The Tonight Show…really worried!
Conan is a loser. NBC is the BIGGEST loser.
Nikki, I know all those “Arthur” cartoons have dulled your sense of humor, but c’mon.
The National Lampoon did this bit in the 1970s. The great thing about having an audience that skews young is that they haven’t heard old material before.
This clip is funnier than anything leno did in his entire tenure.
In other news, GI Joe = Waste of Money, and I live in Flyover Country.
It should have been called Universalland, oh wait, Universal Studios.
All those scenes were shot at Universal Studios theme park (also not in the least bit funny)
Conan should spend less time in front of the mirror and looking at himself in the monitor (how can he stand it?)and more time soliciting the opinion of people outside of his inner circle – the sycophantic Emanuel water cooler; Polone; Ross; the auto-pilot please-the-boss writers’ room. Save Letterman late night’s dead on the networks. The worthwhile stuff starts at 11:00 – Stewart; Colbert; subpar E! stuff but I even prefer Chelsea Handler to Conan and Kimmel. Network values applied to her might be interesting. Why did Conan O’Brien even leave New York? It’s the same exact show except in a cavernous and dwarfing venue.
hate Letterman but having tuned into Conan’s show recently…yikes…is their writing team taking walk-ins now?
some advice guys, awkwardly unfunny and labored is not a comedic direction…no wonder old bitter husk-of-a-man Dave is kicking Conan’s ass…I had to see it to believe it
