Seahawks21 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Conan always seemed nervous on his new show. I don't think he ever got comfortable enough to hit his stride. There was a stretch of time about five years ago where Conan was the funniest white man on the face of the planet. His old show was genius. The Kimmel/Leno thing was perfect. Conan has been sending barbs as well. Conan's humor is a bit different, and at first glance, I agree that he doesn't seem funny. You have to give him a few weeks. Props to Conan for not caving. I don't understand how NBC got behind Leno on this. When we look back on this someday, this is going to be a lot bigger deal in TV history that it is getting credit for now. Leno isn't going to do any better than Conan did, and they'll be forced to let Leno go and try Jimmy freakin' Fallon. That is gonna be priceless.

bpwallace49 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Never watched any of those shows since the Daily SHow started more relevant to current events that matter and the guests tend to be more than mindless pop stars, IMO . . .

WaterMan Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Have to agree. IMO, In the year 3000, the masterbating bear, etc all trumped whatever Leno ripped off from others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czarina Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 conan is funnier than leno, but that's about all I can say for him. I used to love letterman, but he seems to be getting stale. about the only ones I like are that scottish guy and kimmel, but even with them I will only watch if I happen to be channel surfing late at night. I guess the whole genre just doesn't interest me much anymore. I love Craig Ferguson, he's a riot. Not so much that I'd set the dvr for him or anything, but I do find him funny.

kpholmes Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 NBC to pay Conan $30 Mil to go away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebellab Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Not a bad deal for Conan. Get rich and end up at Fox or on Cable with someone that wants him to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
