(Taken from Wikipedia:) Conan is an American late-night talk show airing each Monday through Thursday on TBS in the United States. The hour-long show premiered on November 8, 2010, and is hosted by writer, comedian and performer Conan O'Brien. The program's host previously starred on NBC's Late Night with Conan O'Brien for 16 years, then presented The Tonight Show for seven months until Jay Leno's return to his version of The Tonight Show due to the 2010 Tonight Show conflict.
Describing itself as a traditional late-night talk show, Conan draws its comedy from recent news stories, political figures and prominent celebrities, as well as aspects of the show itself. The show typically opens with a monologue from Conan O'Brien relating to recent headlines and frequently features exchanges with his sidekick, Andy Richter, and members of the audience. The next segment is devoted to a celebrity interview, with guests ranging from actors and musicians to media personalities and political figures. The show then closes with either a musical or comedy performance. On TBS, Conan airs Mondays through Thursdays beginning at 11:00 p.m. eastern time, and is immediately followed by reruns of The Office. The show had been followed by comedian George Lopez's talk show, Lopez Tonight until its final episode on August 11, 2011. Comedian and actor Andy Richter continues his role as sidekick to O'Brien, and as the show's announcer. Conan's long-time house band continues with the host under the new moniker Jimmy Vivino and the Basic Cable Band, with Max Weinberg being replaced as bandleader by guitarist Jimmy Vivino and as drummer by regular substitute James Wormworth, both of whom regularly substituted for Weinberg during his brief departures.


This show is amazingly funny. If you watch it, then you'll know a couple of famous people/characters, such as
LaBamba and
Minty the Candycane (see below)
A few fads that I and a few other Conan fanboys (aka my friends) do is whenever someone says 'looks good.' we say 'OH IT LOOKS GOOD!' If you watch, you'll know where it's from. Another thing is whenever we see a plane/helicopter, we shake our fists in the air and shout 'BAH! Paparazzi!'

Yes. I was SO mad when I was without Conan for 6 months.. He's much funnier than Leno. :(

Talkshows are not that funny.
:I

Have you watched Conan? At all?
He doesn't just talk about headlines
In the monologues at the beginning, he says headlines and other crap and follows up with a usually funny joke.
Afterwards, he announces who's gonna be on the show.
In the next segment, he does different things, such as what I call (because I can't remember the name) 'generic teen webshow.' Other times it's 'fan corrections,' clips from old movies calling them new ones, and recently they've been doing mock Batman scenes. Just watch the show.

I have watched the show once or twice and I just don't find it funny.
Kind of like how I don't find South Park funny at all but let's not get into that.


The Flaming C would be ruined without a beard







Now what'd be a good idea is for conan to have comedy on it
