It makes me sad that people are being so narrow-minded and hard on Conan. I think he’s so great! I loved his Late Night show when I was in college. He’s just so effing goofy, you can’t help but be entertained. His skits used to be pure gold to (Clutch Cargo, “In The Year 2000,” If They Mated). I hope things pick up for him and people give him a chance. Sometimes change is good people. Sheesh.
Glad Conan beat the polically obsessed, bitter, dirty old man, Letterman. His demeaning comments labeling women as sluts and vulgar jokes about a 14 and 18 yr old young women being knocked up when he as an old man got his girlfriend pregant is beyond hypocritical. I doubt he would like it if his son was used as an object of ridicule or if his partner was called names. After the hoopla is over with Lettermans shoddy jokes, Conan will do even better in the ratings. If these comedians do not have more talent that to have to ridicule children with vulgar jokes, then they need to retire. Pushing political views no matter what the side, is boring.
I was a true Leno fan staying up till 11:30, I gave Conan a chance–but he sucks big time! I guess Letterman is the choice now for this over 49er who cant sleep!.. I cant wait till Leno returns!!!
Conan’s shtick was fine after Leno, but it doesn’t seem right at 11:30.
