If you watched it, what did you think? I love the guy, so I thought it was great. It's good to see Andy back again too. Will Ferrell did probably his best talk show appearance as well, playing to a more dry sense of humor, at least for his usual style. Pearl Jam was a hit too, and up till now I've never really liked them. That song they did though was actually pretty good.

His promise to feature bands like Scissor Shock and Caroliner, as well as guests like Giuseppe Andrews and Takeshi Kitano, as well as his promise to step down and let Tom Green replace him tomorrow night, is going to keep me watching from now till the end of the series for sure!@ Conan can't lose!

That would indeed be cool, though I don't see it happening...

I'm sure tonight will be great too, despite Green Day being the musical guest.

I would have forgotten too, if it hadn't been for the millions of texts I got around 11 to remind me...

I missed it, and will continue to miss it in perpetuity.

That first episode was great. Opening monologue was funny, Will Ferrell was hilarious, PJ's performance was really good, and Conan seemed to be having a blast. And it got HUGE ratings, so I except it to get even better.

Just loaded it up now.
Randomness follows: -First bit quite funny. "They just seem a little weird" on the soundtrack as if to comfort those old fogies who might initially find Conan's humor a bit unconventianal. And yet, I also get the feeling that the subtext to Conan racing across America is like, now that he's on such a long running, revered show, he's "conquered America." However, this braggadoccio is wonderfully punctured when he stops in the Victorian Doll Museum. -Conan comes out. The atmosphere reminds me a bit of Omama's inaguration. Yet here's a guy in the process of fufilling his lifelong ambition. I'm very moved. I'm embarassed by this emotion and feel like a dork. -Glad he kept Max, the band (the best on late night--soulfull pros--that's them, right? Can't get a good look), and the theme. -Nice to see Andy. Except he laughs a bit too hard at the "This is like a Backstreet Boys reunion. Only not as good" line. Will he be an annoying sycophant like Ed McMahon? -Conan paces the massive stage. Nerves? Hasn't quite figured out how to use the space? -"My name is now 'Conando.'" Haha! -So self deprecating considering his emense sucess. Much better than the opposite attitude. -Great Hillary Clinton joke. "Hello." And Biden. "Do you have swine flu?" -Andy banters. "Choco Taco" bit. He'll be more of a sidekick, throwing in his own jokes? Let's hope. -The tram film. Too funny. Always loved how Conan found humor in the most boring of settings. Presumably, most of it's improvised, which is impressive. -The audience chants, "Circle circle," joyfully giving in to their surreal impulses. -Yeah, shot of band before commerical. They're the same. God they rock. ___commercial_____ -"Let's give it up for Jay Leno?" "Universal?" Fine, but sickly sweet presentation, somewhat saved by smashing the letter "D." -Pretty good Ford Taurus bit. But I'm a little uncomfortable with the "L.A. won't change me" thing he's doing. -----commericial----- -My god. Will Farrel reminds me of Bush. My pop culture mind's been corrupted. -Banter about LA? God I'm fucking sick of LA already. -Why can't Will Farrel ever be in a really good movie? He's obviously naturally funny, so this makes me sad. "Land of the Lost?" Really? Aside from the massive paycheck, why Will? Why? -I take it back. The clip was quite funny. I'm a sucker for urine jokes. Still won't see the movie, tho. -I'm sure Pearl Jam was great. I skipped this bit. I do watch the end, when Conan shakes their hands. He's a genuine fan, which is cool. Do Jay and Dave really give a shit about their bands? -That's it? "That went fast." Indeed. In summary: I laughed quite a bit, more than I have at most movies. I ask for nothing more. Good job. I'm relieved to know that when I have fuck all to do at 11:30 for the next who-knows-how-many years, this'll be around. |
