That's hilarious. I didn't see it though.

yea, he presented. I forgot which category he did, but he said, "2 years ago I was the host, last year I was one of 17(?) hosts, and this year I am 1 of (70?) presenters. Are you trying to tell me something? If you are, say it to my face. Be a man!"

why hasn't Conan hosted the Emmys again?

That was so funny. I believe he was one of 9 co-hosts, and then 1 of 27 presenters.

I'm a numbers geek, so I remember.

wow my numbers were way off.

I hate how I hardly get to watch Conan b/c of school. I either have to catch the repeates the day later or watch him on Fridays only.

Heh. Knowing how you are, you'd probably end up making the whole board end up being dedicated to his hair. Ha.

Heee. When I came home for lunch at 3am the other night I caught some of a Conan repeat. I'd forgotten that he repeats at that hour, I'll have to remember that for the next time I come home for lunch.

Conan O'Brien is pretty funny. I've seen his show a few times.

LATE-NIGHT BOMBSHELL: There's been a major shake-up in late-night, folks. Conan O'Brien, who's been hosting NBC's Late Night since '93, has inked a new deal with the network that calls for him to replace Jay Leno as host of the Tonight Show in five years. "In 2009, I'll be 59 years old and will have had this dream job for 17 years," says Leno. "When I signed my new contract, I felt that the timing was right to plan for my successor and there is no one more qualified than Conan." Appropriately enough, the bombshell comes the same day the Tonight Show celebrates its 50th anniversary on the air. In other succession news, NBC is expected to announce that Kate Couric's 13-year-old daughter, Ellie, will replace her mama on the Today show in 2031.

Not sure how I feel about the switch since Late Night and the Tonight Show have completely different vibes, IMO. As long as Conan can still do "In the Year 2000" on the brightly-lit studio over at the Tonight Show set, I won't be doing much complaining.

But I hope it doesn't mean he'll be leaving NYC because...yeah, that would suck.

**LilMouse** · 09-27-2004, 11:24 PM

I don't want him moving to Cali. I live in NY & like being able to get tickets to his show & see it whenever I want.

Terpsichore · 09-28-2004, 05:44 AM

I have mixed feelings about the news. Conan certainly deserves it and an earlier time slot would make it a lot easier to watch. But, you know, I love Conan on Late Night as is and change = bad *lol*. But alas, there's still five more years.

There's still plenty of time. But it's cool that he\ll be in Cali because now when I want to go to the USa I don't have to debate going to California or NY just to see Conan.

**LilMouse** · 09-28-2004, 06:11 PM

I hope Conan doesn't change his comedic style. I love the way he is.

fetch NY is better But I am *so* biased

**Rainstorm18** · 09-29-2004, 07:14 AM

Conan O' Brien is one of my favorite late night talk show host. I love alot of his skits. He is just hilarious.

**no limits** · 09-29-2004, 12:39 PM

I am so glad he's bumping Jay in '09!!!!
He, IMO, was always so much better then him. He is just so quick with the jokes and one-liners. And he's zany. I will actually be watching late nite in '09! Too bad it's not sooner.

I think he's most likely going to leave NYC, which sucks. But, I probably will be living in California by then, So I have no problem with that.
