Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
June 1

I miss Conan, I can't wait and hope his corniness will still be there!

...And bring back the Masturbating Bear!

I am excited. I can't stand Jay Leno.

I like Jay Leno..but Conan is a funny dude...the GF loves that silly puppet string thing he does for the opening. :r

Not a big Conan fan here.

Not a big fan of Conan or Leno. Letterman is my preference, have watched him since the '70s.

LOL!
He will be Leno's last guest. I heard Arnold will be on Leno for his last show as well as Conan O' Brian.

Conan "The O'Brian Schwarzenegger" Barbarian.

I really like Conan(and the barbarian) so it will be cool to see him on earlier. I despise Leno and am definitely a Letterman fan..

:tpd: as far as the Barbarian and Letterman part.... :rolleyes:

My favorite is Craig Ferguson... I'm hoping that he'll be in Vegas during ELVIS so we can go to his stage show!! :tu

Leno is OK. I can't Stand Conan or Letterman. I think they are funnier off the cuff during an interview but their monologues stink. :2

Re: Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
Jay Leno is the equivalent to watery beer for me. Conan will do a show I will enjoy more. Letterman has been annoying me slightly for the last few years, for reasons I won't go into, but I would rather watch an awful Letterman show than a good Leno show.

SeanGAR 05-28-2009 04:10 AM

Re: Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
Letterman used to be good, but in the last number of years he is predictable and boring. I don't like Leno or Conan, so there won't be much change here, I won't watch either show.

Volt 05-28-2009 04:20 AM

Re: Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
Sorry, don't find many of them funny at all. Leno has some pretty good interviews, but comedians..... both Leno and Conan fail for me. Can't remember the last time I watched a late nite show.

The opening sequence was pretty funny. Runnning across country through landmarks. I chuckled.

I liked the Ford Taurus skit :r

That and the Universal Studios tour was pretty good.

Circle, circle, circle

I'm a Letterman guy. I might watch Leno in September though.

jamesb3 06-02-2009 03:28 PM

Re: Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
Also a Letterman guy. Don't much care for Conan.

Once Johny Carson went there wasn't anyone to replace him. Lenno was crebible and Letterman tries to hard,,,Conan,,,I don't see much there but others like him.

No.

I like Conan, but his monologue on his first day 1 was lacking.

Re: Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
I watched Monday's episode last night and I was pretty impressed. I loved Conan on Late Night, especailly the 2006-2007 season but this is going to be a different animal.

It is going to take him some time to hit his stride, figure out what works and what doesn't at the new time slot and learn how to deal with the different level of guests. I think the bottom line is that he is a smart-funny guy and he will do well.

:tpd:

The fact that Andy Richter is back on the show only makes the show stronger, but I agree there will be a learning curve with the new audience.

Conan is not so much a stand-up comedian as an "in-your-face" kind of comedian. Some of the older audience may just not get it.

He's got to adapt to his new audience and tone it down a bit. He'll lose some of the qualities that I really like in him and his old show b/c of this. But overall I'm happy that he got the top spot on the late night circuit.




Edit: No offense to any of the Letterman fans out there, but I never understood him. I have yet to laugh at anything he has ever done on his show (with the exception of the Jerry Lawler/Andy Kauffmman debacle:tu). I just don't get it.

I have an old Admiral TV - I'm still watching Jack Paar.

Re: Anyone else excited for Conan?
 
I'm loving Conan at the earlier slot...and Andy is gonna plenty inappropriate which is good.

I really hope this new gig is reason enough to bring back Shoeverine on last time
