Conan's Final Episode


Well kids it looks like tonight will be the last episode of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien & even though I don't watch it very often I really like Conan & I think he totally got the shaft (and maybe even the balls too) on this one!  Sure he's getting a pretty hefty settlement but he can't take any of his characters with him which sucks too because wherever he lands he won't have Triumph the Insult Comic Dog with him, boo.  I made sure to DVR tonight's final episode which has the great guests of Tom Hanks, Will Ferrell, and Neil Young.  Now I loved Conan on Late Night & think Jimmy Fallon is the worst possible replacement but I definitely agree that putting Jay on at 10 was the biggest mistake NBC ever made.  Jay should have been given a weekly show rather than a nightly show & I think it's totally unfair that Jay is being treated like some TV God when he's not even that funny!  Why couldn't they have just canceled Jay's show when it started tanking...what makes him so much better than the other canceled stars that NBC wants to do whatever they can to keep him on the network?  NBC must be run by baby boomers & older because my generation doesn't find Leno funny, we like Conan & want to see him back on TV ASAP!  Apparently he can be back on TV in September according to the separation agreement with NBC so I can't wait to see where he lands...FOX is rumored to be the likely choice.  After all of this happened I really think they should have taken the Tonight Show off the air since they completely ruined it & then given Jay Leno a brand new show because most of the people I know plan on boycotting The Tonight Show with Jay Leno part deux.  Then again none of us watched the first round...if I'm watching that type of show I'm watching Letterman, Leno can suck it!  If you are a Leno fan though he will be back in March, after tonight NBC will run Conan reruns until the Olympics start & once they are done Jay will be back.

  1. I will DEFINITELY NOT be watching the Tonight Show with Jay Leno...I almost cried last night watching Conan's last episode. Kenny and I really enjoyed watching Conan and were excited when he took over because we were never up late enough to watch him on Late Night (well, I wasn't at least) and now NBC fucked that up for us. Also, Jay Leno could've easily bowed out and let Conan keep his spot, but I guess he's just too selfish for that...have fun America listening to stale old Monica Lewinski jokes and other crap comedy that Jay Leno considers funny, you won't find me watching the Tonight Show anymore, that's for sure.
