Ferguson was good, too, and Letterman before that.
Conan getting fired from the Tonight Show was a blessing. There's no way he'd want to be one of those pathetic late night hosts right now.

Conan's mistake was changing his style to try and elevate it to the gravitas of the Tonight Show
he lost the anarchic edge he had and it made it easier to blame the cratering ratings on him rather than Jay Leno fouling the nest in prime time fucking up the entire night's ratings

Letterman's people have been acing putting his stuff up on YouTube
even guys who have been dead for 20 years like Rodney Dangerfield have teams working for their estates who upload content for passive income
Letterman owns Craig's run of The Late Late Show. Why the fuck doesn't his team start uploading Craig & Geoff stuff officially?

At least in the early-mid 2000s: appealing to teens and college kids with late-night goofiness/weirdness similar to Adult Swim's bizarre or surreal shows? Just when I watched, at least (which was on and off admittedly)

He's probably the least evil guy in showbiz. Which is also the reason why his shows failed. He kept insisting to employ untalented comedians for his audience skits and whatnot. They are really really bad.

One aspect is that he actually let the people that came onto the show do their thing. Fallon and Kimmel are like tour guides rushing the guests from one thing to the next.

I still remember that so-retarded-it-eventually-becomes-funny joke where Tig Notaro spent minutes dragging a stool across the stage. Fallon would have pulled out a gun and shot her if she did that on his show. But Conan was like that with everyone, he just let shit unfold, which is antithetical to manufactured slop content.

I remember early on seeing a skit where they played pranks on inanimate objects. Like two oscillating fans cooling a room that was already cool. "But one of the fans works for us, the other one has no idea what's going on!"
I wish a clip of that existed on the internet.

So funny that if you watch the outtakes from the TBS show you can watch Conan get actually pissed at his writing staff for wasting his time AND his money by writing awful bits that have no chance of making it to the air.

Conan was decent, but the only late night host worth a fuck after Johnny was Ferguson and anyone who says otherwise is a retard.

I watched conan in the 2000s every fuckin summer and he never brought that shit up. I was surprised to even learn he wrote for them and only found out watching the dvd commentaries.

Jay is responsible for maybe the single most legendary moment in the entire Late Night Wars saga
>Hid in the closet in an NBC executive's office
>Listened in on a phone call between NBC executives and heads of affiliate stations talking about whether they prefer Leno over Letterman or Letterman over Leno
>Is nearly caught by the janitor on the way out
>Can't help but be a stinker so he calls Warren Littlefield, president of NBC entertainment, and starts vaguely talking about the things he heard while he was hiding in the closet
>Many laughs were had by Jay that day

Conan was a writer during the golden age of one of the greatest tv shows ever made, including writing arguably the best episode
Roach worked for a slop company as a QA tester after his daddy gave him a nepo hire
Even if you truly believe Conan brings up The Simpsons often, these are not the same

monorail is overrated, if it didnt have that catchy song that conan didnt even write, nobody would care.

That's horseshit and you know it. The only episodes better are the ones with Hank Scorpio and the dental plan joke.

nta but nah, I'm not buying it. The street sweeper bit alone in bart sells his soul is better than that entire episode. I almost get the feeling people uphold monorail as the greatest simply because of Conan's connection to it. I agree about the Scorpio ep though. It's also my favorite.

Conan's remotes are great when there's a sidekick who can match his quick wit.
