I really enjoyed your video. A small comment on style: You are almost consistently using "future in the past" throughout, i.e. "he would do this...". This tends to disrupt the flow of the commentary and is unnecessary in most cases. E.g. "At Carson's advice he left NBC" would be just fine and sound more natural.

I want Conan to come out of retirement and host late night TV again. Don’t you agree too?

I find the stark contrast between Conan and Ellen Degeneres very interesting. Ellen's entire on-stage personality was how kind and generous she was and it turns out she was an abusive asshole when the cameras weren't rolling. Meanwhile Conan's on-stage personality was a horrible boss and an annoying creep and it turns out he's genuinely kind guy who's also a great boss.

The only one who would be considered king other than Conan would be Letterman - and hey, it's probably true

I remember a Conan remote where he goes to a etiquette school or something on those lines and asks a young girl if she can demonstrate her Irish dancing or something like that and when he notices she is embarrassed and awkward he deflects it onto himself and dances really stupidly to make the kid laugh and make her feel better about the situation, he truly is a great guy

Conan felt like a friend we all knew. He is the greatest Late Night host.

I like Conan & Jay. Watched them both since 2001/2002. I wish The Tonight Show had worked out for Conan in the long run, but the truth behind that debacle is still not widely known. I highly recommend the book "The War for Late Night" by Bill Carter which includes the nuance in the story. NBC screwed over both Jay and Conan and I believe Jay has been unfairly villianized. In 2004, NBC told him Conan was taking over in 2009 no matter how good his ratings were. Jay loved NBC and did not want to leave in 2009, so he accepted the offer for a primetime show. Misguided? Yes, but not malicious. Bottom line, the two could not co-exist at NBC anymore, so one had to go. Again, I hate that Conan quit. I miss him and Jay on TV. The current hosts are all no-talent political hacks.

Conan is definitely great and this was a well done tribute video. I'm glad he helped you and others (and myself too). I will say some other greats are Craig Ferguson and the still active Graham Norton (on BBC). I mention them too as I feel at least for some if you like one, you'll like all three of these hosts. Others have said and suggested as much too. Of course some are determined to only have one favorite and make it a competition. I think that seems silly as we're just spectators of their shows (unless of course you actually did work of any of the said shows). Anyway I say more great comedy shows to love is definitely a good thing and I enjoy switching it up. And when I come back to one of them after not seeing them perform for a bit their comedic style is all the fresher for having taken a break from immersing myself in their comedic wares. Well happy comedy hunting and cheers : )

The only other host that has his replayability is Craig Ferguson. His interview skills were at, if not better than, any other late night host, including Conan, Letterman, and Carson. He made every single guest feel comfortable and let them even show some of their dirtier sides. Every time before an interview, he rips up the suggested guest question cards and just ad libs the whole interview, which never really happens nowadays. He was the only late night host that could stand toe-to-toe against Robin Williams as the funniest guy on stage and not only have a genuine conversation without him going off the rails, but also make him laugh. With the current landscape of late night being so horrible with the only glimmer of hope being Seth Meyers, it's great to remember how spoiled we were to have guys like Ferguson, Letterman, and Conan on our screens every night.

I loved Conan from the beginning. He has been the only late night host that I have felt compelled to watch every single episode of. His sense of humor just clicks with me spot on. From the monologue, to the skits, and interviews, i was just in stitches. No one makes me laugh like him and I miss his show terribly

I’m 41 I was around 15 or 16 when I got into Conan, he was new, it was around 1997/1998. It was a thing with guys in my class in high school that had good sense of humor. This guy Paul B. would VHS 📼 record it and we’d pass it around since the show was hours past our bedtime. This is all true.

Conan is just... without any competition whatsoever. Genuine, unique and a type of humor that's unsurpassed and original. No political agenda at the expense of others, no fake laughs, no slapstick humor or silly gimmicks to appeal to the masses but just... Conan being Conan. I've seen his speech at graduation day, I've read about his generosity towards his staff and I still remember him contuing during those virus-ridden darker years. And now I've seen this vid and this has assured me that Conan is and will always be a phenomenal host and just an unique and wonderful person.

It's 1993. A 10 yr old kid from Florida stayed up on Friday nights to watch Conan. I was no ordinary kid of course. I was a comedy fan. I have missed episodes. But I never stopped watching. I'm in my 40s now, and I listen/watch Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend. Conan is in my opinion not only the best Late Night host, he's one of the funniest people alive.

THANK YOUUUUU. I cried so much during this video and I haven't cried in 3+ years. I've always loved Conan but I didn't fully appreciate his kindness until this video. I have one wish in life and that is to make someone else cry due to my kindness. I know my emotion is due to Conan but thank you so much for creating this video. It was a beautiful experience in it of itself.

this was such a sweet comment. thank you so much for the support! :D

I was always paying so much attention to his interviews with people, I never noticed his expertise at doing them. Always loved his humor, still do. Thanks for this.

i just fell to my knees. he is genuinely the only mainstream talk show host that ever made me laugh and still does. knowing he struggled deeply with the Tonight Show debacle, suffering from intense depression, makes me wish he knew just how many people he makes happy. he makes me laugh probably more than any comedian and it makes me so sad NBC and other networks still don't see how genuine nad genuis he is.

Yes, especially his impact on young people. I still remember the feeling I used to get when I heard that music come on: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a22Y3NqqqZnSd7w.html

Indeed, the most unproblematic, most genuine host ever. I'm from an Asian country with no experience to late night talk show culture in the US but discovered him here on KZread. Everything he put out was genuinely so funny, many many times heartfelt. I like the Remote bit and the animal section. And I love that he constantly featured his staff in his show. As an audience, that made me understand that the whole show is not about a single person, but the entire team. I really like that about him.

Ever since this I first watched this, I first started watching Conan for the first time and now I’m obsessed. He’s such a genuine person and I love him so much 🥺🩷

The psychological breakdown with that Conan interview was quite on point. I've always liked Conan but I've gotten to really enjoy him now that he's doing podcasts.

This gets any Conan fan emotional. It's one of the most beautiful fan-made homages to the genius that is Conan O'Brien. Thank you for making this and taking the time; amazing content.

Conan O'Brien has been and will always be the absolute best. The kindest, silliest and all around most wonderful funny man ever🥰🥰🥰 I'm his biggest fan and his comedy means the world to me 🥰🥰🥰

Conan is the best! He is also the main reason why I put my shit together and understood the essence of being a genuinely nice guy. I used to be this kind of cynical little "main character" bastard who looked down on everyone. Conan showed me the way to act like a total idiot while still being the smartest man in any situation. Conan acts like the father I wish my own father would've been...

Yeah bro that took me a while to figure out too

His style of comedy and just genuine heart is simply the best. Great video and great tribute to his tremendous legacy!

Something that wasn't mentioned was Letterman's support of Conan back when Conan was struggling with ratings. He went on Conan's show as a guest and gave him a glowing and sincere review and really pumped Conan up. This was the start of Conan's ratings going up and is one of I'm sure many reasons why Conan directed his viewers to Letterman's final show.

I love the arc of Conan's journey. A lesser person might have become cynical and bitter by how his time at the Tonight Show ended. Instead, he reacted with awesome dignity, courage, and humour. As a result, not only did he become all the more beloved, in my opinion his legacy is far greater now than it ever could have become as just another long-term Tonight Show host. The guy is a hero. With love from Ireland.

Bonus emphasis to the fact that the dude went through hell before coming out the other side You can see this in candid interviews regarding his music tour that he shot with his wife, where you can see the doubt and anxiety riddling inside him. Dude was majorly scarred and broken from that kerfuffle, but with the help of the people around him, he found a better resolution to it and grew into a role that outshone all of the people before him

TAY-TOS!

For my mom and I, Conan was our undisputed favourite for over 20 years. We didn't bother watching other shows. My mom hardly knew English but he still made her laugh every time. She would imitate the intro puppet strings/scissors dance and everything.

This actually made me tear up a little bit. We need more people like this. I will watch or listen to anything Conan does forever.

What I love about Conan is that he's very genuine and kind based on what you hear from people who are both close to him and those who've only met him briefly. He almost always puts the joke on himself, so he never really makes anyone uncomfortable. Plus, he's very quick witted and funny. That's a brilliant combination!

As a devoted fan who has been following Conan O'Brien since '93, I can't express enough gratitude for this incredible video tribute, "There will never be another Conan O'Brien." Your work beautifully encapsulates the essence of what makes Conan such a unique and irreplaceable figure in the world of late-night television. Having had the privilege to witness firsthand the rise of numerous talents on Conan's show, years before they became household names, I've always admired how Conan not only entertained us but also played a pivotal role in spotlighting and nurturing talent. Your video is a poignant reminder of his extraordinary contribution to the industry. Conan O'Brien is more than just a host; he's a trendsetter, a mentor, and a comedic genius who has left an indelible mark on American television. His wit, charm, and unparalleled ability to connect with both his guests and audience have redefined the role of a television host. This video is a testament to his legacy, capturing the spirit of what he brought to our screens every night. Thank you for dedicating your time and effort to create this masterpiece. It resonates deeply with fans like me, who have cherished every moment of Conan's journey. He is, indeed, an absolute legend, and through your video, his legacy will continue to inspire and entertain generations to come.

Think for a moment what a fan might have to say that's capable of witnessing the next generation picking up the mantle and recognizing Conan as a titan in entertainment and setting a new standard for being a great host. Consider that you enjoyed seeing Amy Pohler as a bratty teen in the audience or witnessing Vanessa Beyer in the background of a sketch that never aired. It's truly a unique emotion to witness the growth of a talented actor, writer, or comedian, from getting their start as a page or intern to being one of the most successful shows on the air today. Naturally I'm going to have a lot to say and even more importantly is, knowing who will all read and hopefully relate to my comment. It's intentionally well thought out.

I love Conan. The only talkshow host that I keep watching for more than 20 years

The fact that he STILL feels nervousness and self-doubt, really does humanize him so much. He's fucking Conan.. he has absolutely no reason to feel any nervousness or self-doubt, he's legitimately THE GOAT. I can't think of anybody I know or even anytime I've seen someone online claiming to dislike him.. or anything other than loving him...yet, he still remains humble.

Andy's Response to "do you float in the ocean?": "Do you sink? It must be because of that cast iron heart"...that's just in a whole other level of cool-headedness, intelligence, wit and gumption. Conan steals the show, but he is just more visible and Andy has demonstrated to be every bit as talented. Respect. There really is no one like them.

I love that he’s kind of like every other show host (in a bad way) but you can genuinely see that he’s also kind of not (in a good way). You can still tell Conan has an ego like Leno, Maher, Corden, Ellen, etc. But all of those skits with his staff and whatnot lead me to believe he really cares about his staff. When I hear Kimmel, I think Kimmel and Guillermo. When I hear of Ellen, I think of only Ellen. When I I hear Conan, I think about Conan, Andy, Sonya, Schlansky, and more. It took more than Conan to make Conan beloved, and I think he knows that.

2:25 "He is very generous as a performer, he is not looking to score at your expense, and he is just funny." I did not know Lorne had such a great insight into people's character 😮

I often have a hard time explaining why I love Conan so much. This video says it all and more. Thanks for putting this together.

This is what I've been telling everyone. He was the best talk show host ever. Always made it about his guests and never about himself. He's genuinely funny, smart and kind. The likes of which is extremely hard to come by. Luckily for us he's not out of entertainment yet, thanks to his podcast. Long live Conan!

He has also spent decades promoting and boosting the profiles of new comedians. Especially for many UK comedians, his show was often their very first appearance on television in the U.S. He seems like a kind, generous man. Is professional generosity a thing? If so, then that's Conan.

very well put together! you touched pretty much all the bases of why hes the best. lets not forget hes a loving father, husband, friend, international envoy, and global good will generator

I'm a guy from China, and Conan is my biggest comedy hero. I appreciate his early struggles, and overcoming them to find his distinct sense of humor. His spontaneity I think is the best. The remotes and bits with his employees are the best of the timeless comedy that he's claimed to be his goal, which he's definitely achieved. Bravo, man ❤

Conan is one of those guys that maybe not everyone loves, but no one hates.

This guy is master of the conversation art, he can be silly, smart, emphatic. whatever is need to be and still be genuine at every moment.

This made me sad because I LOVE Conan O'Brien and he's getting old and I just love his remotes. The guy is genuinely the happiest and most down to earth person in Late Night Comedy. He was born to be a late night talkshow host.

Thank you for the video! Conan's self-deprecating, silly, non-political humor was such a contrast to all the other late-night shows. In fact, it is (the podcast) a contrast to the entire media landscape. I wish more people realized the quality and value he has been bringing to comedy.

Conan's interactions with his staff, and even the people he randomly meets on remotes, are the true indicator of what a great guy he is. They show genuine respect for him, and can also joke around about him and you see how completely safe they feel doing so. So much of his staff has been around for over a decade, and this respectful and authentic relationship never changes. Only a true person can accomplish this.

Man, this was beautifully put together. Well done.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched his skits with his staff, Jordan Schlansky, Clueless Gamer and etc. Conan is that one TV show host who can instantly make your day better with his hilarious non-scripted skits and down-to earth personality. His comedy has helped me with my never ending depression and the inner demons I’m still battling. I hope I get to meet him one day. He really is a one of a kind, remarkable host ❤❤❤

Damn I teared up by the end of this video. Wish I can meet Conan one day and tell him how much I admire him.

Conan and Ferguson have such special places in my heart. Growing up they were the only two Late Night shows I genuinely looked forward to watching with my Dad. I never really knew what it was that attracted me to those shows at the time but looking back on it I feel that it was because they were the only ones who somehow managed to really care but still somehow didn't take themselves too seriously. They were always invested in the moment and really cared about the people around them. They made absurdity into an artform.

There will never be another Conan, but there will be somebody else who's great in ways nobody has thought of yet.

Conan was the only talk show host I really ever enjoyed watching. No one else could do it for me.

He has got to be one of the best interviewers, if not THE best. The evidence for this is in, of course, the talk show, but his travel shows where he talks to 'regular' people quite effortlessly and entertainingly while always being respectful to the person. Even when he's being irreverent. The improv skills during conversations is at another level.
