Letterman by far, as Conan would tell you.
Conan's remotes were absolute proof that he was a far funnier comedian than the actual show allowed for. His comedy stretches far beyond the reaches of the static talk show format that he had to moderate himself to function in. It actually proved that he was one of the best comedians of our time, with an extraordinarily quick and sophisticated wit. For me, even though I did enjoy his show - I feel robbed that he was pigeon-holed into that alone - he could've made some amazing shows with him as a star if he were allowed to.

Seriously though, you nailed it.
That first year of Conan's Late Night was some of my favorite stuff. So experimental, so raw. I loved it.
I loved when he lost his NBC gig, he went out on tour which was quite successful, kept his name in the public and it led to the TBS show for a number of years.
"This is going to make a good story, once it is all over." helps when things are going pear shaped.
Howard says Conan is his best interview of all time. ❤️
Besides being highly entertaining, Conan is one class act.
"If you can survive this, it's gonna make the whole story that much better."
Howard and Conzy !!! 2 GOATS of their craft !!!
I 💗 Conan his comedy is hilarious. He does no wrong in my book!!🥰
I first saw Conan on a segment where he is looking for electric guitars through the internet and he showed up to the sellers' house with Slash to check out the guitar. They ended up on a "Buffalo Bill" house. Since then I always watch his show. 🤣
He’s was and still is, funnier than any of the late night show hosts.
Conan changed many lives before being hosting a talk show. He is responsible for some of the biggest names in comedy making it in show business. He himself is also wildly funny and an incredible comedy writer. Goddamn legend. I love Conan.
That same critic later apologized to Conan and said he was wrong

Great stuff. Howard is such a great interviewer because you can see him listening and empathizing. He's not just waiting to ask the next question, the answer will lead to the next question, so he's getting into the thought process of the person he's interviewing. That's not something you can teach.
What a great interview!!! Phenomenal chemistry.
Two Living Legends. Great Interview.
These are basically my two favorite comedic minds of all time. I could listen to them talk for Endless hours. This is absolute gold for me.

That Charlie Rose interview is on youtube, and Conan's memory of it makes it sound a lot worse than it was. Maybe in his memory the interview and the Shales article combine into one, and he pictures Rose reading out the entire article on camera or something. But actually Rose only briefly mentioned Shales, the only somewhat quote being "it's not working for him (Shales) as a critic", and asking if Conan just says to those critics "I'm doing the show I want to do". Overall I think Conan and his show came across very positively in that interview and Rose also seemed to be in his corner against critics. But I can totally understand Conan's memory of it being faulty and getting some PTSD reaction just out of Rose mentioning Shales, or even thinking at the time the interview went a lot worse than it actually did.
