Andy and Conan has got to be the best bromance in late night comedy.

Andy Richter, the Swedish German. I met him once through a prospector in Atlanta, Georgia.

That is sooo weird whan a US citizen, born and raised in the US, is being called the nationality of their ancestors. His father was born in Illinois, not in Germany. Especially when I am from Europe as well. He neither has a swedish nor a german passport. Even his parents (at least his father, didn't find the info on his mother) were born and raised in the US. From my point of view, he's as US as it gets. He is a (at least) second generation US Citizen. I understand the sentiment, but boy is the US fixation on their ancestors weird for outsiders.

​​@@mephisto8101 The ethnicity of the ancestors is how we identify each other. Because the ethnicity of the ancestors is what dictates your home cuisine, how you celebrate holidays (and what foods you cook), what your family structure is like, etc etc etc. The US is a country of immigrants who do not assimilate to a standard cultural norm. Families keep most of the traditions of their ethnic heritage. So as an American, when I get to know another American, eventually I'm interested to know their ethnic heritage, because now I have the complete picture of how they live their life and what their family is like. Hope this helps.

Lot is an understatement. I literally watch Conan because of Andy. Conan is funny. But Andy is funnier. Infact he could have had his own show. He had to be really quick during interviews and still whatever words come out of his mouth are just too good. I have seen multiple times Conan losing the track of the conversation or interview gets awkward & Andy says something which just makes people laugh immediately.

The thing Andy did was never try to take over or interfere, but the things away from the interviews was incredible

I love Andy, he contributed constantly to Conan’s interviews by adding funny comments and giving Conan moments to laugh and riff. RIP Ed McMahon, but Andy changed the game for comedy talk show co-hosts. Not going to call him a sidekick, he’s earned better.

Andy calls himself a sidekick and he says it's what he wants to be. So it's not taking anything away from him... He knows he could be called more but he loves that so I call him a sidekick for that reason only even though when I call Andy a sidekick it means so much more than when I call lets say Robin a sidekick to batman.

Andy Richter Controls the Universe was underrated

Andy was awesome on the Conan O'Brien show...will always be one of my favorites because of the kind, funny person he showed us he was during his years with Conan.

What a genuine, down to earth, funny and great story teller. Oh, and Andy is pretty good too.

He's so good in his profession that i feel uncomfortable to call him a sidekick. He is more than a sidekick. Infact his humour and comic timing is even better than conan. He can read the tone of conversation so well & then he adds something or says something so unpredictable that cracks you up immediately. I remember once Conan said "Should i lower myself?" & Andy said "You lower yourself everyday". 😂

Conan really is a force of nature. I can see why he didn’t have to say much, or get a chance to. Andy on Arrested Development is one of my favorite parts of the show. I’m glad I got to see him shine on that show!

Andy has a good heart and it is in the right places with his love and appreciation of the iconic people of the past!

Andy Richter should be the primary host of Jeopardy.

"immediately stupid" is how I would describe watching Conan and Andy the first time

Andy seems like such an unbelievably fun fella to hang out with.

I miss watching Andy and Conan every night.

I watched Conan from the very beginning and at first I have to be honest I didn't get that the brilliance of Andy. It wasn't until he came back to the show years later I realized how stupid I was for not seeing his absolute genius! I look at older episodes and it was always there I just was blind to it.

I personally love a good Andy Richter Swedish German joke

Andy did an incredible job!! Conan was lucky to have such a great comedy team player!!

Bowie was so darn funny in a few Conan shows.

I don't know about you, but a job that afforded you the opportunity to throw a bucket of superballs out of a ninth floor window sounds like just about the sweetest gig anyone could ever hope for...

never forget what a talent he is - totally could lead a show as a comedic actor (imho it was just a bit ahead of its times, the comedy series).

Before Eric Andre and Hannibal Burress, there was Conan O'brien and Andy Richter.

Michael Caine?! Why do people put simple actors on a pedestal? Movie acting is probably the simplest of all creative works. Everythings prepared for you in advance, you get endless do-overs, and then the editor/director cuts & pastes the best bits together.
