"Some people ask why I named the show Conan. I did it so I'd be harder to replace." That's a flawless opener.

I think Conans story is always going to be a bit somber because he feels a bit like the guy who was so close but never quite got to the top, for a lot of reasons.

Getting canned from NBC was the best thing that ever happened for him. He did his best work in the years following. TBS have him complete creative control!

@syphruskid

One thing that did kind of hurt him was the fact that a lot of famous bits he did on NBC were scrapped when he went to TBS. But he made up for it in other ways by starting up regular bits like the Clueless Gamer. I have wondered one thing though. Even on his last week on TBS he never once (as far as I know) even mentioned Norm, not even including him in a montage of past clips from the show. From what I've gathered online it appears that at some point a few years ago he said something publicly that got some controversy which would explain his absence from the show the past few years. But I've wondered if this was a decision made by Conan or if this was a TBS decision.

conan is very funny but that's one of the oldest jokes in the book

As someone said. The greatest to ever do it.

I just watched this after Conan's final tonight show monologue. He had a bit in there about how sometimes in life things just have to end a decade too soon. Now I'm watching this and thinking about how his last show was a couple weeks ago. So he managed 11 years on TBS after things ended '1 on NBC, something a bit poetic about that. I don't think Conan's the kind of guy who would have cared about making a bit less money as long as he was comfortable and doing something he loved, so in the end it all worked out for the dude.

Me too.

Conan is the best late night talk show host of all time. His very first episode of late night was ridiculously meta before meta was popularized. He went out on a limb to do his style of humor when he could have easily conformed to what other hosts had done before. He was also behind some of my favorite simpsons characters and stories. Conan is an American treasure, he has contributed so much to the evolution of comedy.

NBC jokes never get old.

So many references that anyone today whose 20 years old or younger wont get in that all news in one joke joke.

Fun fact: Conan’s hair hook is called a pompadour! I didn’t know, but I thought it looked a red panda that got cooked.

I remember my brother made me watch this live when I was 12 years old. Wasn't that familiar w Conan at the time, but he gained a new fan that day

Conans show was for people who actually had a sence of humor 🤣😂😆

My biggest regret was not watching Conan when he was still on and by the time I became a fan and was going to, his show ended

The energy here is unreal 💙💙

I love that his first words to Andy were for him to shut up

The best thing tbs ever did

the Final Episode Of CONAN ('O Brien) (on (W)TBS) airs on Thursday / June 24, 2021 !!!!

Lol. He has sooo much more energy!!!! 😁

Never knew anything about late night shows until I started watching Lopez Tonight which introduced me to Conan, the MJ of late night

Awesome! Can you post Conan 2010 opening monologues please? Huge Conan fan!

I wanna put a portrait of Conan O’Brien in my House! He was the first comedy heroes I looked up to!

This was a great show. Too bad that Conan and Company could not sustain higher viewing levels. Poor/inconsistent lead-ins were probably the major problem. This show was well produced.

one of the greatest f*cking monologues in late night history 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This is Conan at the height of his powers in my book. His whole time at NBC he was waiting and struggling to get to Tonight Show host. After NBC screwed him over, he said F U, rose from the ashes as his own man, and knocked it out of the freaking park. NBC was only holding him back.

3:05 and hes now moving to HBO

the head pop at 1:00 he's got some good dancing skills

He looks so young
